PhD and Postdoc positions (3 years) are available in the newly established Quantum Error Correction group led by Felix Huber at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow.

We are looking for exceptional candidates with background in quantum information or mathematics, with an interest in theoretical or experimental quantum error correction, entanglement theory, optimization, invariant theory, and/or mathematical physics.

The position is part of the project “Quantum Computing Platform for NISQ Era Commercial Applications” funded by Innovate UK. This is a multidisciplinary collaborative project involving stakeholders in industry (Rigetti and Standard Chartered) and academy (University of Edinburgh). The successful candidate will join a team focused on conducting leading research into quantum computation for emerging scalable devices. This full time, fixed term post is available from 1 November 2020 until 31 May 2023

We are offering a postdoc (E13) and a PhD position (E13 3/4) to highly motivated and well-qualified researchers who intend to conduct research in near-term quantum computing and simulation. Possible topics include the following:

- Notions of quantum machine learning and near-term quantum computing

- Benchmarking and tomography

- Analog quantum simulation

- Computational complexity theory

The successful candidates will work as part of the research group led by Jens Eisert at the FU Berlin. For an overview of research activities, see

This position is embedded in the research project QUANTUS‐IV MAIUS, which is carried out by the QUANTUS collaboration of seven German Universities and Research Institutes. QUANTUS (“Quanten‐gase unter Schwerelosigkeit”) is funded by the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and aims to investigate ultra‐cold quantum gases in microgravity.

Your mission:

The Quantum Computing Group at the High-Performance Computing Department of the Institute for Software Technology at DLR is focused on application-focused algorithms for near-term quantum computing. In particular, the group works with fundamental researchers as well as possible end-users to achieve the goal of finding quantum advantage for useful applications.
