About this position

At the University of Amsterdam’s GRAPPA Institute, this postdoctoral project sits at the intersection of theoretical astroparticle physics, cosmic-ray transport, and high-energy neutrino astronomy. The position is embedded in the NWO-funded OMEN project, which combines theoretical modelling with KM3NeT data analysis to study the origin of the most energetic neutrinos.

The selected researcher will lead the theory side of the project, developing numerical models of cosmic-ray propagation and interactions in magnetic fields across a range of scales. The work is aimed at producing direct theoretical input for the interpretation of ultra-high-energy neutrino observations and at predicting multi-messenger signatures, including neutrinos and gamma rays, for current and future neutrino telescopes.

The post is based at Amsterdam Science Park within GRAPPA, the University of Amsterdam’s centre of excellence in gravitation, astroparticle physics, and cosmology. The project is a joint theory-experiment effort with Nikhef, and the postdoc will collaborate closely with an experimental team member analysing KM3NeT data. The position also offers access to the KM3NeT collaboration and interaction with GRAPPA faculty, postdocs, students, and the wider neutrino and cosmic-ray community.

The research environment emphasizes collaboration, open-science practices, and scientific exchange through group meetings, collaboration meetings, seminars, conferences, and publications. The institute is described as part of a strong physics centre at Amsterdam Science Park with excellent facilities and connections to major initiatives in astroparticle and multi-messenger physics.

What's required

Applicants should have a PhD in Physics, Astronomy, or a closely related discipline by the start date. A strong background in high-energy astrophysics or astroparticle physics is required, for example in cosmic ray, neutrino, or gamma-ray astrophysics. Demonstrated expertise in scientific computing and a research record appropriate to career stage are expected. Preferred experience includes cosmic ray transport and air-shower codes such as CRPropa, GALPROP, or CORSIKA, charged-particle propagation in magnetic fields, neutrino telescope data, or likelihood and Bayesian inference methods.

How to apply

Apply online using the provided application link; email applications or applications via other portals will not be considered. Submit a cover letter with start and finish months for education and work experience, a CV with publication list, a research statement, and have three reference letters sent directly through the UvA system. Complete applications must be received by 15 December 2026.
