Assistant Professor of HPC Simulation of Quantum Algorithms

The Department of Mathematical Sciences invites applications for an Assistant Professor position in HPC Simulation of Quantum Algorithms. The position is associated to the Centre for the Mathematics of Quantum Theory (QMATH) and the Quantum for Life Center. The application deadline is November 20, 2025, and the starting date is March 1, 2026. The position is time-limited for four (4) years. The development of quantum algorithms is speeding up in step with the fast developments of the quantum hardware needed to run them. Important here is a precise understanding of the speed and viability of the developed algorithmic idea. In addition to theoretical analyses, simulations on traditional computing infrastructure has emerged as an important tool for the algorithmic development, since the quantum hardware is often too strongly limited in size or too noisy. As there is a large overhead in such simulations, high-performance computing (HPC) tools are required to perform such simulations in useful regimes. At the same time, large computational resources are being setup, both in Denmark and internationally. In order to seize this opportunity, we therefore invite applications for an assistant professorship in HPC Simulation of Quantum Algorithms. The candidate is expected to have experience with quantum algorithms, as well as a theoretical understanding and experience in the practical implementation thereof on high-performance computers. Inquiries about the position can be made to Professor Matthias Christandl christandl@math.ku.dk or Professor Jan Philip, solovej@math.ku.dk .
