The Joint Center for Quantum Information and Computer Science (QuICS, http://quics.umd.edu) is seeking exceptional candidates for the QuICS Hartree Postdoctoral Fellowships in Quantum Information and Computer Science.

The Institute for Quantum Optics and Quantum Information of the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Innsbruck invites applications for the IQOQI Prize Postdoctoral Fellowship in Quantum Science for the year 2026.

Recipients should show outstanding research in theoretical or experimental quantum physics commensurate with the level of the position, and an ability to identify and pursue research problems independently while working well in an interactive and dynamic setting. They need to have completed their Ph.D. degree by the time they start their assignment.

The postdoc will work on our project coupling single strontium atoms to nanoscale defect cavities with the ultimate goal of creating quantum states of massive mechanical resonators. The position is fully funded for 2 years by my ERC starting grant.

We are seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher with a Ph.D. in Physics (or a related field) to join the Quantum Information and Matter Group led by Prof. Peter P. Orth at Saarland University. Our group is part of the recently established Quantum Technology Center (QuTe) at Saarland University—a dynamic, interdisciplinary research hub uniting expertise in computer science, mathematics, engineering, chemistry, and physics. Through our close partnership with the Helmholtz Forschungszentrum Jülich, we offer unique opportunities for joint projects, networking, and access to cutting-edge HPC and quantum computing resources.

Potential research directions include: Quantum algorithms for simulating many-body systems, quantum field theories, and combinatorial optimization. Implementation and end-to-end resource cost estimation of quantum algorithms on current and near-term early fault-tolerant quantum hardware. Development and application of quantum error mitigation and error correction protocols. Join us to shape the future of quantum!

This fellowship aims to explore the use of quantum computing for Earth observation (EO) applications, potentially in combination with artificial intelligence and high-performance computing (HPC) technologies. In particular, you will apply (hybrid) quantum computing solutions to EO use cases for which current classical computing algorithms are NP-hard or, in general, difficult to implement.

In particular, you will:
