Hello,

Please help me distribute this job advertisement to potential
candidates at the Perimeter Institute by forwarding it to students,
group leaders, and institution mailing lists.

We are seeking postdoctoral scholars to join the Simulation & Systems
Thrust of the Q-NEXT National Quantum Information Science Research
Center at Argonne National Laboratory. We have multiple openings for
strong candidates with expertise in one of the quantum information
science areas listed below.

Thank you,
—Martin Suchara


Postdoctoral Appointee - Quantum Information Science, Argonne National
Laboratory
We seek multiple postdoctoral candidates to participate in projects
that model the behavior of multiqubit systems, develop quantum
algorithms for materials simulations, perform quantum network
simulations, and develop quantum network protocols. Postdoctoral
appointees will have a unique opportunity to become part of the Q-NEXT
Center, a National Quantum Information Science Research Center that
includes nearly 100 researchers from three DOE national laboratories,
ten universities, and ten leading U.S. quantum technology companies.
We are targeting exceptional recent or expected PhD degree recipients
in a computational or engineering discipline or in physics. We are
seeking candidates with knowledge of computing and experience in one
or more of the following:

Simulation of open quantum systems, noise characterization, or quantum
error correction;
Development of variational quantum algorithms with applications in
quantum chemistry;
Simulations of quantum networks or development of quantum network protocols;
Optimization of quantum algorithms and quantum programming (e.g., using Qiskit);
High-performance computing or scientific computing;
Large-scale code development in C, C++, Python, or Go.

Candidates can apply at https://bit.ly/34beW6M. Positions are
available with start dates in 2021, and U.S. citizenship or permanent
residency is not required. Please contact Martin Suchara
(msuchara at anl.gov) with any questions.

Prospective PhD Students
Prospective PhD students interested in quantum information science are
encouraged to apply to the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering at
the University of Chicago and at other Q-NEXT academic partner
institutions.
