Quantiki

Your Job:

You will work in an interdisciplinary project team on quantum enhanced machine learning methods. This includes:
the extension, development and analysis of new quantum machine learning algorithms for current and near-future quantum computers
investigating the applicability of quantum machine learning techniques to real-world problems from application partners
implementation and testing of algorithmic concepts with real data using QML software libraries such as Pennylane
evaluating recent technological and algorithmic developments for current quantum computers and those available in the near future
leading contributions to technical reports, scientific articles and policy papers
the co-supervision of theses

Your Profile:

PhD in physics, computer science, mathematics or comparable fields
Research experience in the area of quantum algorithms (ideally quantum machine learning)
Proven organizational and communication skills
Ability to work independently in interdisciplinary teams
Good written and spoken English language skills
Ideally good German language skills, both written and spoken
Ideally experience in software development

starting as soon as possible. The position (75% regular working time) entails a fixed-term con- tract for the duration of a PhD project. The successful applicant will be working on a cooperation project at the connection of Theoretical Physics and Experimental Physics. This position is lim- ited to 3 years (according to the German law “Wissenschaftszeitvertragsgesetz“) and includes a teaching responsibility of up to 3 hours per week. The possibility to graduate as a PhD is provided.

A four-year PhD position for EU/UK applicants is available in the Quantum Light and Matter group (https://www.tcd.ie/physics/research/groups/qlamg) at the School of Physics in Trinity College Dublin. The group has a range of interests, including quantum dynamics, open quantum systems, light-matter interactions, and more.

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research fellow position in the group of Dr Zlatko Papic at the University of Leeds, United Kingdom. The project will focus on emergent phenomena and out-of-equilibrium properties of many-body quantum systems, both in the context of condensed matter and ultracold atomic systems. The project spans several research areas including topological order, many-body localisation, and non-equilibrium dynamics of many-body systems.
