PostDoc

The MCQST Postdoc Fellowship is a fully funded, two-year postdoctoral position for outstanding early-career researchers in quantum science and technology. Fellows join the Munich quantum community to deepen their expertise, build their research profile, and collaborate across one of the leading quantum research hubs.

Candidates apply to the fellowship independently of a specific research group. During the selection process, shortlisted candidates have the opportunity to connect with MCQST Members and identify a suitable host group.

The MCQST Junior Researcher START Fellowship gives outstanding early-career researchers up to €300,000 over two years to lead their own independent research project within MCQST's research program. Unlike a standard postdoctoral position, START fellows run their own project and build their own small team — with full independence over their research direction.

I would like to announce several openings of Postdoc and PhD positions relating to formal verification and quantum computing / quantum crypto in Dominique Unruh's group, the Chair for Quantum Information Systems, RWTH Aachen, Germany.

Feel free to share this in your network (especially with gifted master students who may not yet be in this channel).

The Quantum and Linear-Optical Computation group at INL (Novo RG) explores several research areas in theoretical quantum computation, ranging from foundational questions to quantum algorithms and photonic implementations. We are looking for a postdoctoral researcher to work jointly with the Quantum Nanostructures group (Rossier RG ) in theoretical topics at the interface between quantum computing and quantum many-body physics.

You will develop new theoretical methods for quantum sensing with mechanical systems, explore their use in tests of fundamental physics, and help build the research environment of a new theory group.

Job description

The Quantum Information and Computation (QIC) team, led by Prof. Teiko Heinosaari at the Faculty of Information Technology, University of Jyväskylä, Finland, is seeking a Postdoctoral Researcher in theoretical quantum information science. The position is expected to start on 1 November 2026, or as soon as possible thereafter, and will continue until 31 December 2028.

Prof Cristian Bonato is seeking an Experimental Postdoctoral Research Associate to join his team's work on the real-time, autonomous optimisation of nuclear-spin sensing and control — building on recent results such as Phys. Rev. Applied 21, 024026 (2024) and PRX Quantum 7, 020360 (2026).

We are seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate to develop the next generation of AI-enhanced quantum sensors, combining machine learning with cutting-edge quantum hardware to create autonomous scientific instruments.

Our research aims to build quantum sensors capable of deciding for themselves what measurement to perform next, learning from incoming data in real time, and continuously optimising their performance. These technologies have the potential to transform nanoscale imaging, single-molecule detection, quantum networking, and next-generation biomedical sensing.

Applications are invited for a Postdoctoral Research Fellow position in experimental quantum physics at the Department of Physics, POSTECH (Pohang University of Science and Technology), South Korea, funded through the QuantERA project ENTUNE - "Entangled and Tunable Nanomechanical Quantum Systems."
