Dear colleagues,<br>
<br>
Thank you for broadcasting this announcement to potential
applicants (Ph.D graduates seeking a Post-doc fellowship).<br>
<br>
The Modular Supercomputing and Quantum Computing Group in the
Institute of Computer Science of the Department of Computer
Science and Mathematics (Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lippert) at Goethe
University Frankfurt has an immediate vacancy for a Postdoctoral
Researcher.<br>
<br>
Interested applicants should apply by sending an e-mail until
February 15, 2022 to: Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lippert, Institute of
Computer Science, <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:lippert@fias.uni-frankfurt.de">lippert@fias.uni-frankfurt.de</a>. Please include
your CV, certificates, and list of publications.<br>
<br>
======================================================================================================================<br>
<br>
The Modular Supercomputing and Quantum Computing Group in the
Institute of Computer Science of the Department of Computer
Science and Mathematics (Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lippert) at Goethe
University Frankfurt is seeking to fill the position of a
Postdoctoral Researcher (E13 TV-G-U) initially limited for a
period of three years. The classification is based on the job
characteristics of the collective agreement applicable to
Goethe-University (TV-G-U).<br>
<br>
What we expect from you<br>
=======================<br>
You will independently research, analyze and develop in the field
of the use of quantum computers in practical applications. Of
particular interest are the design, porting, benchmarking, and
practical use of quantum algorithms, with a focus on those that
use quantum computers/quantum annealers together with HPC systems
in a hybrid way. You will participate in the development of a
software environment for interfacing quantum computing modules to
modular HPC systems for use as accelerator technology in hybrid
fashion on the one hand, and for genuine hybrid QC-HPC algorithms
on the other. You are expected to support the teaching of the
Institute of Computer Science in the Bachelor and Master programs
as well as the publication and presentation of research results.
You will be a partner in the acquisition and implementation of
state, national and European funded third-party projects in the
corresponding field.<br>
<br>
Your responsibilities will include research in the above areas,
helping to create access to quantum computers/quantum annealers
for Frankfurt scientists and cooperation partners from industry,
e.g. on the quantum infrastructure of Forschungszentrum Jülich,
and being responsible for managing the procurement of a quantum
computer system for the GU. You present your results in project
meetings, at workshops and conferences and publish in journals
with a high impact factor. You guide PhD and Master students in
their scientific work and are active in teaching.<br>
<br>
Your profile<br>
=======================<br>
You have completed a scientific university degree (Master or Dipl.
Univ.) in physics or computer science. A doctorate with excellent
grades is required. You have research experience and profound
knowledge in simulation on supercomputers and in computing with
quantum computers and quantum annealers. You are experienced in
the design of efficient HPC algorithms and are engaged in the
creation and implementation of quantum algorithms.<br>
<br>
You should also have experience with research projects on a
national, European and possibly international level as well as
experience in working with IT and HPC companies. Expertise in
programming languages such as C/C++ and Python as well as
experience in parallel programming, e.g. with MPI, are required.<br>
<br>
You have a strong ability to work cooperatively, to use your own
initiative and to carry out independent research and development.
We expect very good written and spoken English language skills as
well as the flexibility and willingness to travel on business such
as project meetings within Europe or to (international)
conferences and workshops.<br>
<br>
Please send your application with the usual documents (curriculum
vitae, certificates, list of publications) by e-mail until
February 15, 2022 to: Prof. Dr. Dr. Thomas Lippert, Institute of
Computer Science, <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:lippert@fias.uni-frankfurt.de">lippert@fias.uni-frankfurt.de</a>.<br>
