About this position
The University of Miami College of Arts and Sciences is hiring a Post Doctoral Associate to join Dr. Cheng-Ju Lin’s group in Coral Gables, Florida. The appointment is centered on building a research program in quantum simulation, with a strong emphasis on combining theoretical ideas, computational methods, and access to quantum hardware.
The successful candidate will work on developing quantum algorithms and software for optimizing and simulating quantum circuits using high-performance computing (HPC). The project also involves executing quantum circuits on hardware through external collaborations and platforms such as BlueQubit, Quantinuum, and IBM. These methods will then be applied to models drawn from quantum physics and quantum chemistry.
In addition to method development, the postdoc will document research outcomes, prepare manuscripts for peer-reviewed publication, and present results at conferences, workshops, and seminars. The role is research-intensive and sits within an environment focused on computational and theoretical work at the interface of quantum information and physical science.
This opening is for a postdoctoral researcher joining an academic physics group as it establishes a new research direction in quantum simulation at the University of Miami.
