Strong mathematical education, in particular in relation to linear algebra
Strong programming experience
Ability to effectively communicate in written and spoken English
Ability to work autonomously and in close interaction within a team
Most importantly: enthusiasm to explore uncharted territory, develop, and follow your own ideas
Our Offer:
We work on the very latest issues that impact our society and are offering you the chance to actively help in shaping the change We offer ideal conditions for you to complete your doctoral degree:
Work in a highly motivated research group as part of an international and interdisciplinary working environment with access to outstanding computing facilities and connections to the best research institutions around the world
Continuous scientific mentoring by your scientific advisor as well as feedback and wide-ranging expertise from the whole group in multiple facets of quantum technology and optimization
Opportunity of participating in (international) conferences and project meetings
Participation in overarching seminars including certificate
The skills that you will acquire during your are in high demand both in academia and in high-tech companies: at present, there is significant government and private investment in the field of quantum technologies
Opportunity to develop your strengths, through a comprehensive training programme; a structured programme including continuing professional development and networking opportunities specifically designed for Jülich’s doctoral researchers by the Jülich Center for Doctoral Researchers and Supervisors (JuDocS):
30 days of annual leave and provision for days off between public holidays and weekends ( between Christmas and New Year)
In addition to exciting tasks and the collaborative working atmosphere at Jülich, we have a lot more to offer:
The position is for a fixed term of 3 years. The salary is in line with pay group 13 (75 %) of the Collective Agreement for the Public Service (TVöD-Bund). In addition, an annual special payment is granted (“Christmas payment”), which amounts to 60 % of the monthly salary.
