Join our team as a Research Specialist in Condensed Matter and Materials Theory, where you will play a pivotal role in pioneering developments in materials science. In our innovative and collaborative division, you'll have the freedom to drive your own research projects, develop groundbreaking computational techniques, and mentor the next generation of researchers.
About the Division of Condensed Matter and Materials Theory
Our division is dedicated to modeling and understanding a wide spectrum of materials and condensed matter systems. By combining theoretical insights with advanced methodological and computational approaches, we often uncover new materials, develop novel technological devices, or engineer media with extraordinary properties that go beyond those naturally occurring. Our work is characterized by a synergy between fundamental and applied research, allowing us to address pressing societal challenges, particularly in sustainable energy and information technology.
Collaborating closely with both local and international experimental groups, we foster a vibrant environment where research intersects with impactful applications. Additionally, our division actively supports Chalmers' undergraduate and postgraduate programs, empowering students to develop strong analytical, computational, and problem-solving skills. Through our international research networks, students gain valuable collaborative experience, preparing them to make meaningful contributions to society, academia, and industry.
Role Overview
As a Research Specialist, your primary focus will be on advancing and implementing cutting-edge techniques in materials modeling, with a special emphasis on software development for our division's core computational tools, including hiphive, icet, and dynasor.
Major Responsibilities:
• Develop and implement new computational methods tailored to materials modeling.
• Mentor students, fostering their growth and ensuring effective knowledge transfer.
• Present research findings through publications and conference presentations, contributing to both academic and industry knowledge.
