Cambridge Residency Programme: Computational Materials Scientist
2 weeks ago
Overview
We are seeking a researcher with expertise in materials research (simulation) to work on data storage applications.
This is a two-year fixed-term post-doctoral position and is part of our Cambridge Residency programme within the Cloud Systems Futures research group. The Project Silica team is researching a revolutionary new technique to store data in glass using lasers, and read it using optical imaging, and our multi-disciplinary team innovates in all fields from the materials science to the cloud architecture.
We are looking for a computational materials expert who can work in collaboration with Generative AI experts to apply revolutionary approaches in materials generation and exploration to the search for materials suitable for data storage applications. The successful candidate will work on developing and applying theoretical, computational, and machine learning methods to understand and predict the properties of materials for data storage applications.
Qualifications
Required qualifications
PhD in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, or a related field, or equivalent training and experience in research. Strong background in theoretical and computational methods of material science or chemistry. Experience developing DFT and TD-DFT workflows. Strong software development skills (e.g. in Python). Excellent written and verbal communication skills. Ability to work independently and as part of a cross-disciplinary team.Preferred qualifications
