About the position
Position Description
The Joint Quantum Institute (JQI), a research partnership between the University of Maryland at
College Park, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, and the Laboratory for Physical
Sciences, is searching for a new JQI Fellow to lead research in experimental quantum physics. JQI is located at the University of Maryland in College Park, and its scientific mission is to study coherent quantum phenomena (https://jqi.umd.edu/). There are currently 26 JQI Fellows, including theorists and experimentalists, working across areas such as atomic physics, condensed matter physics, quantum photonics, and quantum information, and pursuing applications in quantum computing, communications, sensing, and metrology.
Candidates should have a demonstrated ability to conduct independent research, strong communication skills and potential for leadership within the quantum research community. We expect that a successful candidate will build an independent research group that complements and strengthens the experimental and/or theoretical research of JQI. The preferred starting date for the position is August 2027.
Minimum requirements: A Ph.D. in physics or a physics-related discipline with research experience in one or more of the above (or related) areas. Interested candidates should upload: (1) a cover letter, (2) a CV, (3) a statement of research interests and plans, and (4) arrange for four letters of recommendation to be submitted through the Academic Jobs website. For best consideration, applications should be received by January 15, 2027.
