The Department of Physics at University of Florida invites applications for an Assistant Scientist position in the field of theoretical and computational quantum materials. We are seeking a motivated and creative researcher with expertise in strongly correlated electron systems and quantum magnetism.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Ph.D. in Physics, Applied Physics, Materials Science, or a closely related field.
• Strong background in theoretical condensed matter physics, particularly in correlated electron systems.
• Demonstrated expertise in numerical many-body methods.
• Proficiency in scientific programming (e.g., Python, C++, Julia, Fortran) and familiarity with parallel computing.
• Strong record of publications and scientific presentations.

• Conduct independent and collaborative research in theoretical quantum materials.
• Develop and apply a combination of analytical and state-of-the-art numerical methods to address fundamental problems in condensed matter physics.
• Publish research in leading peer-reviewed journals and present findings at major conferences.
• Contribute to interdisciplinary collaborations with experimental and theoretical groups.
