Offer Description
We invite applications for a postdoctoral Functie to develop quantum algorithms to study electron dynamics in photochemistry and spectroscopy. This research is part of our long‑term collaboration with the QuSoft Research Center, where we focus on the development of novel quantum algorithms for chemical applications.
In this project you will work on simulating strong perturbations of initially relatively simple electronic wave functions using quantum algorithms. The methods to be developed concern multi‑state molecular dynamics and real‑time electron dynamics. Proof‑of‑principle applications will focus on use cases in photochemistry and catalysis.
The project combines theoretical work, algorithm development, and implementation into a hybrid (in terms of targeted computers) quantum‑classical software. It offers an opportunity to contribute to fundamental advances in quantum chemistry.
The successful candidate will join our quantum chemistry group at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam. Our interdisciplinary and international group of chemists and physicists works on the development of novel methods in electronic structure theory and their application to molecules and periodic systems. This project offers plenty of space for personal development, being part of the vibrant Dutch quantum environment and participation in international conferences.
The starting time is negotiable but should be no later than November 1, 2026.
- You hold, or are about to obtain, a PhD degree in physics, chemistry, quantum information theory, or a related field.
- You have good knowledge of electronic structure theory and a thorough understanding of at least two of the following topics: methods for real‑time electron dynamics, methods for strongly correlated systems, quantum computing, embedding theory.
- You have demonstrable experience in at least one modern programming language (Python, Fortran, C++ …).
- You have excellent communication and writing skills.
- You are willing to work independently as well as in a team.
Additional Information
A challenging Functie in a socially engaged organisation. At VU Amsterdam, you contribute to education, research and service for a better world.
