Topic: Molecular Foundry

Develop theoretical and computational approaches to X-ray interactions with quantum and nanostructured materials at the Molecular Foundry. The researcher translates electronic-structure, magnetism, light–matter and structured-field theories into numerical tools that interpret experiments, collaborating closely with experimental teams and benchmarking methods. The appointment lasts two years, with an annual salary range of USD 84,336–94,020. The priority-review date is October 26, 2026.

Develop an independent microelectronics research programme at the Molecular Foundry while supporting its user community. The role divides effort between research and user service/outreach, connecting precision synthesis, nanoscale patterning, fabrication data and device performance. Early-career and experienced appointments are considered. The initial career-track term is two years, with expected annual pay of USD 129,924–207,900. Work is primarily onsite, at least four days weekly. Priority review is November 23, 2026.

Improve superconducting-qubit materials and fabrication at the Molecular Foundry through atomic-layer deposition and etching, interface engineering and structural characterization. Research links processing, composition and interfaces to low-temperature device performance and develops reproducible datasets and fabrication methods. The appointment is a four-year term, renewable up to five years, with expected annual pay of USD 117,300–142,800. At least four days weekly are onsite. The priority-review date is October 1, 2026.
