A post-doctoral position in the field of electronic-structure software
development is available at IOM-CNR, Trieste, Italy. The position, funded
by the MaX - Materials at the exascale EU Horizon2020 Centre of Excellence,
is for one year, renewable for another year. Requirements include a PhD in
a scientific discipline and research experience in computer simulations
and/or in scientific software programming. Experience with
density-functional theory (DFT) calculations, especially with the plane
wave-pseudopotential method, is a plus.

The successful candidate will work on the Quantum ESPRESSO software
distribution in one or more of the following topics, depending upon his/her
skill set:
- development of new methods and algorithms for advanced DFT functionals;
- refactoring and modularisation of the code basis, notably for
first-principle molecular dynamics, linear response, computational
spectroscopy;
- porting of Quantum ESPRESSO  new heterogeneous accelerated architectures
(e.g.,  GPUs);
- improvement of Quantum ESPRESSO user experience, users’ and developers’
documentation, testing.
The work requires coordination and interactions with the Quantum ESPRESSO
users'
and developers' community and with the MaX EU Centre of Excellence.
