WARNING: An employment scam is currently circulating that offers research assistant positions in our lab. The scam sometimes originates from a gmail account or even a compromised ucdavis account. The scammers ask to be contacted by text or phone. We NEVER contact anyone by text or phone. DO NOT provide any information to the authors of this scam, and DO NOT make any payments whatever reasons these scammers invoke.

The electronic structure laboratory periodically recruits post-doctoral researchers in the area of numerical algorithms and high-performance software for first-principles electronic structure calculations. Areas of interest include 1) development of algorithms for petascale architectures, 2) development of linear-scaling electronic structure methods, 3) large-scale data management. Interested candidates should hold a PhD in Physics, Computer Science, Mathematics or a closely related discipline. Expertise in C/C++ and MPI programming is desired. Familiarity with electronic structure theory and expertise with XML document design are also desirable.
