The Center for Quantum Information and Control (CQuIC, https://cquic.unm.edu/) at the University of New Mexico invites applications for Postdoctoral Fellowships in theoretical quantum information science (QIS) as part of the National Science Foundation’s Focused Research Hub in Theoretical Physics (FRHTP). CQuIC is an interdisciplinary QIS research center, with participating faculty from physics, chemistry, electrical and computer engineering, computer science.

I am recruiting one PostDoc and one PhD in my group at Inria Saclay, Ecole Polytechnique near Paris on the following topics:
- Quantum correlations, quantum nonlocality, entanglement
- Quantum Distributed Computing
- Quantum Foundations
- Mathematical Physics (Noncommutative polynomial optimisation, C* Algebras)
- More generally, all area of Quantum Information Theory

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position at the Centre for Quantum Computer Science, University of Latvia (https://www.quantum.lu.lv), lead by prof. Andris Ambainis. The Centre is among the strongest European research groups in quantum algorithms and currently consists of 20 researchers (including postdocs and graduate students). The Centre is known for its work on quantum walks and other methods for quantum algorithms, quantum lower bounds and record-breaking separations between quantum and classical algorithms.

The Quantum Information and Matter Theory group of the Department of Physics, University of Padua (Italy) opens 3 postdoctoral positions to start in Fall 2023. We are looking for motivated candidates with a strong track record to work in the following areas:

1. Tensor Network methods and their applications in high-energy physics, condensed matter and machine learning (PI: Simone Montangero)
2. Topological and chiral states with quantum simulators (PI: Marco Di Liberto)
3. Open quantum system dynamics (PI: Pietro Silvi)

Are you looking for an opportunity to shape the future of quantum computing? With superconducting quantum computers on the verge, we want to strengthen our research at the Walther-Meißner-Institute (WMI – wmi.badw.de) of the Bavarian Academy of Sciences and Humanities and the Technical University of Munich (http://www.tum.de) and offer several positions within the Munich Quantum Valley (http://www.munich-quantum-valley.de) and the German quantum computing project MUNIQC-SC (t1p.de/8c6h).

A 2-year post-doc position is available to develop experimental quantum communication protocols, focused on the continuous variables encoding. The duration of the contract can be extended at the candidate's request, subject to his/her performance results. The candidate will join Telecom Paris, one of the member of the Institute Polytechnique de Paris. We target December 1st 2023 for the starting date, but with some flexibility to start later (until February 2024). The work of the post-doctoral student will be part of the European project QSNP (Quantum Secure Network Partnership) gathering 40 European academical and industrial partners. She/He will be co-supervised by Dr. Nicolas Fabre (GTO, Telecom Paris) and Prof. Romain Alléaume (Quriosity = QTY, Telecom Paris - Inria).

PhD and postdoc positions are available in the group of Prof. Stefan Willitsch at the University of Basel (Switzerland) on the development of quantum technologies for single trapped molecular ions and their application in precision spectroscopy.
