Dear Colleague,
we are offering postdoctoral and PhD positions in my group at RWTH Aachen and Forschungszentrum Jülich, some details are given below.
I would appreciate if you could forward this information to any suitable candidates. Thank you!
With best regards,
Markus Müller
----------------------------------------
We are offering postdoc (E13) and PhD positions (E13 3/4) to highly motivated and well-qualified
applicants to conduct research in the area of
quantum information processing, with a focus on
quantum error correction, fault-tolerant quantum computing and physical implementations. Research topics can include:
- Verification and Certification of Quantum Fault-Tolerance
- Open Quantum Neural Networks - From Fundamental Concepts to Implementations with Atoms and Photons
- Advanced quantum computing with trapped ions, with HPC connection
The successful candidates will join
the
theoretical quantum technology
group led by
Markus Müller at RWTH Aachen and Forschungszentrum Jülich.
Our group is highly passionate about
research, with an inclusive and open working
and discussion atmosphere, and
substantial international
collaborations. We are part of a vibrant and growing
research environment, including JARA and
the Cluster of Excellence ML4Q. Involvement in ongoing local and international collaborations will be strongly encouraged.
We seek postdoctoral applicants preferentially with a main background
in quantum information theory,
quantum error correction and fault-tolerance, benchmarking, quantum or classical machine learning, or a
closely related field; for PhD applicants, previous experience in quantum information and programming is desirable. We
particularly welcome applications from women and applicants with diverse backgrounds.
The positions are related to the European Quantum Flagship, ERC, US and
German BMBF/DFG funding.
Applications should consist of a cover letter, a CV including publication list, and a brief (max
two pages) research statement.
For postdoc (PhD) applications two (one) letters of recommendation should be arranged for.
PhD applications should also include
a copy of the
master thesis and transcripts. The postdoc
positions are for two years in the first place, with the possibility for a renewal by a third year.
Questions regarding the positions and all applications should be
emailed to m.mueller@physik.rwth-aachen.de.
Review of applications will begin after January
20, 2021, and continue until the positions are filled. Early submissions
are appreciated. Start dates flexible.
