About the job
Quantum Computing is one of the newest and potentially field-changing disciplines. While much research is being done on how to create quantum-based systems, software engineering for quantum computing and software-engineering using quantum computing are still in their infancy.

We are offering a PhD position in quantum foundations and quantum information theory. This position is associated with the research group of Borivoje Dakić at the Faculty of Physics, University of Vienna, Austria (see: https://dakic.univie.ac.at/). A strong background in quantum mechanics and mathematics is highly desirable. All information regarding the application procedure can be found on the Vienna Center for Quantum Technologies (VCQ) webpage: https://vcq.quantum.at/.

Paderborn University is a high-performance and internationally oriented university with approximately 18,000 students. Within interdisciplinary teams, we undertake forward- looking research, design innovative teaching concepts and actively transfer knowledge into society. As an important research and cooperation partner, the university also shapes regional development strategies. We offer our more than 2,600 employees in re- search, teaching, technology and administration a lively, family-friendly, equal oppor- tunity environment, a lean management structure and diverse opportunities.

We are looking for motivated and talented PhD candidates and postdoctoral researchers for the Institute of Quantum Inspired and Quantum Computing headed by Martin Kliesch at the Hamburg University of Technology, Germany.

Research
The main goal is to explore the theoretical foundations of quantum and quantum-inspired optimization.
This goal includes:

The German Aerospace Center (DLR) is the national aeronautics and space research centre and the space agency of the Federal Republic of Germany. Here, 10,000 employees work together on a unique variety of topics in the fields of aeronautics, space, energy, transport, security and digitalisation. Their missions range from basic research to the development of innovative applications and products for tomorrow. Cutting-edge research requires excellent minds – particularly more females – at all levels, who fully achieve their potential in an inspiring environment.
