- Fundamental knowledge of quantum magnetism, in particular spin-liquids and valence-bond states
- Experience with diverse quantum-materials simulation methods, including exact diagonalization, hierarchical mean-field theory, and quantum Monte-Carlo
- Ph.D. in Condensed Matter Physics ;
- Minimum of 4 years of experience in a research, or research and development, environment;
