Your personal sphere of play:
- Operation and management: Oversee the daily operations of the NMR core facility, with responsibility for personnel, scheduling, and budget management.
- User and research support: Maintain and develop relations with internal and external users, providing scientific guidance and fostering collaborations—particularly within the Institute of Organic Chemistry.
- Instrumentation management: Maintain, develop, and troubleshoot high-end NMR spectrometers (400–700 MHz, solution- and solid-state NMR, EPR, Prodigy and He-Cryo units), ensuring optimal performance and reliability.
- Method development: Develop and optimize pulse programs and parameter sets for organochemical, biochemical, and materials applications; support the implementation of full automation workflows.
- Infrastructure maintenance: Maintain and troubleshoot the associated IT infrastructure (Linux and Windows systems), as well as gas and cryogenic systems (He recovery, gas and liquid gas supply for the NMR Centre and the Faculty of Chemistry).
- Teaching and training in NMR spectroscopy and organic chemistry: Contribute to teaching activities within the Faculty of Chemistry, with a focus on applying NMR spectroscopy and supervision of teaching events at the Institute of Organic Chemistry at the bachelor’s and master’s levels.
- Facility management: Manage budgets, monitor facility usage, and maintain the web-based facility management software to ensure transparent and efficient operation.
- Scientific development: Stay abreast of advances in magnetic resonance and implement best practices to support the Faculty’s and Institute’s evolving research needs.
- Administrative engagement: Contribute to administrative tasks related to research, teaching, and institutional development within both the Institute of Organic Chemistry and the Faculty’s NMR Core Facility.
- The position focuses on supporting and developing research infrastructure rather than establishing an independent research line.

Your personal sphere of play:
The research group “Quantum Information Science and Quantum Computation”, led by Univ.- Prof. Dr. Philip Walther, is part of the Quantum Optics, Quantum Nanophysics & Quantum Information at the Faculty of Physics, and member of the Vienna Center for Quantum Science and Technology (VCQ) – one of the largest quantum hubs in Europe – and the Austrian Cluster of Excellence quanta. The group’s research combines the development of scalable photonic quantum technology for quantum computing and other quantum information applications with the investigation of fundamental quantum science questions. The main activities reach from quantum control of single photons using solid-state photon sources, integrated waveguide technology, tailored nonlinear media and detectors based on superconductor technology to interferometric precision measurements of weak gravitational forces.
For our further reinforcement we are looking for a Senior Scientist that supports in particular the research on experimental quantum machine learning. The position is currently limited to 1 year with the possibility of subsequent unlimited employment.
