The Centro de Fisica de Materiales is searching for a postdoctoral researcher to work on the development and application of Wannier-based methods to study nonlinear magnetotransport phenomena, optical responses, and topological properties, among others.

The initial appointment is for 1 year, with the possibility of renewal or a second year upon mutual agreement. The successful candidate will work under the supervision of Stepan Tsirkin and Ivo Souza.

Solid background in electronic structure calculations and good programming skills are required for this position. Most of the development is expect to take place around the WannierBerri code package (http://wannier-berri.org/ <http://wannier-berri.org/>)

The following will be considered as advantages:

1) Experience with Wannier90 and/or WannierBerri as a user or contributor
2) Knowledge of the internals of community DFT codes
3) Familiarity with Berry-phase aspects of electronic structure

The expected start of the contract is between December 2021 and Spring of 2022. The review of applications will start on November 2nd, and continue until the position is filled.

To apply, please send a CV, a short motivation letter and contacts of 2-3 potential referees to stepan.tsirkin at ehu.eus <mailto:stepan.tsirkin at ehu.eus>
