About this position

Centrum Fizyki Teoretycznej Polskiej Akademii Nauk (CFT PAN) is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher for the newly created Neutral Atoms Applications Group within the Center for Quantum-Enabled Computing (C4QEC), led by Dr. Piotr T. Grochowski.

The group focuses on modeling and control of programmable quantum systems, especially neutral atoms in optical tweezers and Rydberg arrays, with applications in quantum simulation, quantum information processing, quantum sensing, and quantum networking.

Eligibility highlights: applicants should hold a PhD in physics or a related discipline, awarded no earlier than 2021 (career breaks are considered). A very good command of English is required, together with a strong background in at least one of the following: quantum optics, atomic physics, quantum information, quantum control, open quantum systems, or many-body physics.

Funding and conditions: the position is offered on an employment contract, initially for one year with the possibility of extension until the end of 2029. The salary is 12,980–14,660 PLN gross per month. Additional support includes funds for conferences, workshops, and research visits, as well as flexible working hours, a hybrid work arrangement, and subsidies for a Multisport card, leisure activities, and childcare-related benefits.
