Computational scientist - Software Engineering for Magnetic Materials Modelling

Description of the offer :

the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) is looking for a computational scientist for the project "Software Engineering for Magnetic Materials Modelling- (MaMMoS project)". The Magnetic Multiscale Modelling Suite (MaMMoS) project (), funded by the European Commission, aims to pioneer advancements in magnetic materials research and development essential for energy, communication, and information technologies, and in particular support the green deal, i.e. the green transition, with the ultimate goal of reaching climate neutrality by 2050. By leveraging characterisation, multiscale modelling, machine learning, and numerical optimisation, the project seeks to craft a magnetic multiscale modelling suite to innovatively design and fine-tune magnetic materials, and devices and products based on magnetic materials. Central to the project are the collaboration with industry partners producing products with magnetic components, the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) for optimising simulation and experimental data, and the creation of open-source software tools. The successful candidate will be part of the MaMMoS team at MPSD in Hamburg. MPSD is leading the research software engineering activities for the project. The skills required for this project are broad, and we do not expect any single person to fulfil all requirements. Training on the job will be provided by world-leading experts at the respective institutions and the project partner sites. For more information, see the full advertisement.
