Subject: Fw: 2022 FRHTP Postdoctoral Search Announcement

The Center for Quantum Information and Control (CQuIC,
https://cquic.unm.edu/) at the University of New Mexico invites applications
for Postdoctoral Fellowships in theoretical quantum information science
(QIS)  as part of the National Science Foundation’s Focused Research Hub in
Theoretical Physics (FRHTP). CQuIC  is an interdisciplinary QIS research
center, with participating faculty from physics, chemistry, electrical and
computer engineering, computer science. CQuIC’s research covers a broad
range of foundational and applied investigations on topics including quantum
computation, control, measurement, communication, and simulation. CQuIC is
an active participant in several multi-institutional centers, newly launched
under the National Quantum Initiative (NQI), including the NSF Quantum Leap
Challenge Institute, “Quantum Systems through Entangled Science and
Engineering” (Q-SEnSE), and the DOE “Quantum Systems Accelerator” (QSA). 
 As a QIS theory hub, CQuIC brings together community through hosting
visitors, seminars, hot-topics workshops, and as the scientific home of the
well-known Southwest Quantum Information and Technology (SQuInT) network.

FRHTP Postdoctoral Fellows will have the opportunity to pursue independent
lines of research, to work with CQuIC faculty members, and to interact with
leading researchers at CQuIC’s partner institutions, including nearby Sandia
National Laboratories, Los Alamos National Laboratory, industrial partner
Honeywell Quantum Solutions, and collaborators at the Q-SEnSE and QSA NQI
Centers.  Fellows also participate in CQuIC’s hub activities, including
hot-topics workshops and SQuInT.  

The initial term of appointment is two years with the possibility of
extension to a third year, with a competitive starting salary plus benefits
and a substantial stipend for domestic and international travel and other
expenses.  Located in the city of Albuquerque, New Mexico, the Center has
contributed to research and education in quantum information theory for over
25 years.   Albuquerque offers a rich cultural environment in a low
cost-of-living city, with beautiful weather, hiking, nearby skiing, and
other many other outdoor activities. 

Applicants must apply at UNMJobs (https://unmjobs.unm.edu); applicants
should submit a CV (including list of publications) and a cover letter that
clearly addresses points (i)-(v) above in the criteria for successful
application.  The cover letter should specify the names, affiliations, and
e-mail addresses of three references, and ask each of their references to
submit a letter of recommendation to cquic at unm.edu.  Applicants must also
submit a detailed statement of interest with a proposal for research as an
FRTP Postdoctoral Fellow. 

Review of applications will commence on November 15, 2022, but applications
will be considered until the positions are filled.
