Rudra Banerjee

Postdoctoral position in altermagnetism at SRM Institute of Science and Technology (SRMIST), Kattankulathur. The project focuses on computational condensed matter physics and materials science, especially the physics of altermagnets, magnonic spin-wave splitting, relativistic Green's function electronic structure, and atomistic spin dynamics. Candidate materials mentioned include MnTe and CrSb. What the work involves: this is a code-development research role, not a simple run-the-code-and-plot position. The fellow is expected to extend established Fortran codebases and implement new physics in large scientific software. Strong modern Fortran, Linux/HPC experience, and the ability to read, modify, and debug complex code are central to the role. Eligibility highlights: PhD awarded or provisional in condensed matter physics or materials physics; demonstrable Fortran development experience; Linux, shell scripting, schedulers, and cluster computing skills; Green's function or many-body theory background is strongly preferred. Funding: AICTE Post-Doctoral Fellowship Scheme with Rs. 65,000/month plus HRA, Rs. 50,000 annual contingency, and a one-year fellowship that is extendable. Application: apply directly through the AICTE PDF portal and name a host supervisor. The post says applications are accepted year-round. Interested candidates should email Rudra Banerjee with a CV and a short note on their research before filing the application. Location: SRMIST, Kattankulathur, India.
