Software Engineer

The “Novel Materials Discovery Center of Excellence (NoMaD CoE)” (http://nomad-coe.eu) is presently being established by 8 leading scientific institutions and 4 supercomputing centers. It relies, for example, on the “NoMaD Repository” (http://nomad-repository.eu) as a base, hosting already an enormous amount of materials data. For a brief summary, see the movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-nmRSH4NQM
We are looking for a software engineer (MA level) who is interested in interdisciplinary work in the areas of materials science, database systems, and data analytics. He/She will work on the overall NoMaD infrastructure. As a first step, he/she will focus on the improvement and the extension of the current NoMaD Repository. Later, he/she will be involved in the challenges related to the NoMaD CoE, at the intersection between materials science and computer science (Big Data, data management). The initial contract will be for 2 years, extension will be possible.
The work requires experience in relational databases (e.g. PostgreSQL) and a solid background in programming languages and tools, like Java, Scala, Python, or Sqlalchemy. Knowledge in data-analytics platforms such as Apache Flink is appreciated. The candidate should be a team worker/player with good interaction skills, preferably with some background in physics / materials science.
If you want to contribute to building a unique infrastructure for handling a large amount of scientific data and enabling novel analyses on it, please send your application documents to jobs@NoMaD-CoE.eu.

Scientist

Simulating magnetic materials with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction There is an immediate opening for a Scientist position in the Materials Science and Engineering Department, Institute of High Performance Computing, Singapore. We are looking for a   candidate who is strong in magnetic materials simulations using density-functional theory. Our interest is to understand the formation of skyrmions, especially in the evaluation of   Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction parameters, and other important magnetic properties such as exchange and crystalline anisotropies. We welcome anyone who has a good track record of research to apply. The renumeration package, which is highly competitive, will be based on the research experience of the candidate. The first appointment will be for two years and renewable. Interested candidates may send their CVs and letters of recommendation to Dr. Chee-Kwan Gan at gan.cheekwan@gmail.com . The selection of the candidate will not stop unless the ...

Postdoctoral positions in computational materials science

Two postdoctoral positions in computational materials science are available at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research, Mainz in the Theory Department, group of Denis Andrienko ( http://www.mpip-mainz.mpg.de/~andrienk/ ). The research project concerns combining atomistic simulations and quantum modeling of charge/exciton transport properties of organic light emitting diodes. The project is funded by European Union and is a part of a broad collaboration of nine industrial and academic partners. The initial contract will be for one year, with possible renewal for up to three years. Applicants should hold a PhD degree and have a strong background in physics, physical chemistry, or theoretical chemistry. Experience in programming (C++) is essential. Interested scientists should send an application, a CV, and recommendation letters electronically to Dr. Denis Andrienko ( denis.andrienko@mpip-mainz.mpg.de ).  http://psi-k.net/jobs/postdoctoral-positions-in-computational-...
