Stellenticket Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin

Independent and responsible research in the field of machine learning. The goal of the advertised project is the development of scalable methods for modeling atomic interactions in quantum chemistry. The focus is on dimension reduction of partial differential equations to describe essential properties of electronic systems at the atomic level.

The associated tasks are:

• Development and implementation of ML models in quantum chemistry;
• Incorporation of physical knowledge about the target systems into the models, e.g., distinguishing different kinds of short- and long-range interactions between atoms;
• Evaluation of the developed methods using benchmark problems and contextualizing observations within physical theory;
• Communication of results through presentations.
• teaching tasks

• Successfully completed university degree (Diploma, Master, or equivalent) in Physics, Mathematics, or Computer Science
• Proven experience in machine learning with a strong understanding of algorithms, linear algebra, functional analysis, and related mathematical concepts
• Solid knowledge in physics, including methods for solving the Schrödinger equation
• Excellent programming skills in Python and solid knowledge of common machine learning frameworks such as PyTorch or TensorFlow
• Strong communication skills in English and the ability to explain complex topics to a broad audience with diverse backgrounds (i.e., both computer scientists and physicists)
• Familiarity with state-of-the-art machine learning models and approaches for modeling molecular force fields with ML
• The ability to teach in German and/or in English is required; willingness to acquire the respective missing language skills

Desirable.

• The ability to interact with a team of ML experts and physicists.
