Requirements
- You have a degree in chemistry materials science or physics (ideally a PhD)
- You have excellent communication and project management skills
- You have experience in firstprinciples methods especially in DFT
- You are familiar with Materials Informatics and have worked with resources such as The Materials Project NOMAD or OQMD before
- You know how to run commands on a Linux server and can write code in python
- You show a high degree of responsibility and ownership
- You have first work experience outside of research institutes
- You are fluent in English German proficiency is a plus
