Conducting research for a changing society: This is what drives us at Forschungszentrum Jülich. As a member of the Helmholtz Association, we aim to tackle the grand societal challenges of our time and conduct research into the possibilities of a digitized society, a climate-friendly energy system, and a resource-efficient economy. Work together with around 7,400 employees in one of Europe’s biggest research centers and help us to shape change!
The Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) operates one of the most powerful supercomputing infrastructures in Europe, making it available to researchers at the Forschungszentrum Jülich (FZJ), in Germany, and throughout Europe. Within the division “HPC for Quantum Systems”, the Simulation and Data Laboratory (SDL) Numerical Quantum Field Theory aims to understand the properties of strongly interacting / correlated matter with scientific objectives ranging from the study of nucleon properties to strongly correlated electronic systems, such as carbon nanostructures. To study these systems, the SDL develops algorithms and implementations for various high-performance computing (HPC) systems. Within the project B2 of the recently granted Collaborative Research Centre “NuMeriQS” of Bonn University, the Max-Planck-Institut for Kohlenforschung, and JSC we are offering a postdoc position with a focus on the development of performance portable software for these simulations.
We are looking to recruit a Postdoc – Lattice Field Theory
Your Job:
Designing, developing, and implementing simulation software
Publishing and presenting the results
Collaborating with the scientists at JSC, Bonn University, and within the CRC “NuMeriQS”
Your Profile:
Completed master’s degree and subsequent PhD degree in physics or related field
Knowledge in the lattice quantum field theory
Strong background in C++
Experience in accelerated architectures, Linux, and high-performance computing (HPC)
Experience in profiling and performance optimization would be a welcome asset
Willingness to present results at international conferences
Good command of English, knowledge of German is not a prerequisite (language courses are offered)
Structured and systematic working style and ability to work cooperatively in international teams
Our Offer:
We work on the very latest issues that impact our society and are offering you the chance to actively help in shaping the change! We support you in your work with:
Access to and discretionary resources on the latest HPC systems, such as the upcoming exascale system “JUPITER”
The opportunity to participate in international conferences and workshops
Comprehensive training courses and individual opportunities for personal and professional further development
Extensive company health management
Ideal conditions for balancing work and private life, as well as a family-friendly corporate policy
Flexible work (location) arrangements, e.g. remote work
Flexible working hours in a full-time position with the option of slightly reduced working hours
30 days of annual leave and provision for days off between public holidays and weekends (e.g. between Christmas and New Year)
Targeted services for international employees, e.g. through our International Advisory Service
In addition to exciting tasks and a collegial working environment, we offer you much more: https://go.fzj.de/benefits.
The position is initially for a fixed term of three years. Salary and social benefits will conform to the provisions of the Collective Agreement for the Public Service (TVöD-Bund), pay group 13, depending on the applicant’s qualifications and the precise nature of the tasks assigned to them.
We welcome applications from people with diverse backgrounds, e.g. in terms of age, gender, disability, sexual orientation / identity, and social, ethnic, and religious origin. A diverse and inclusive working environment with equal opportunities, in which everyone can realize their potential, is important to us.
