The Gesellschaft für wissenschaftliche Datenverarbeitung mbH Göttingen (GWDG) is the university computing center for the Georg-August-Universität Göttingen and a computing and IT competence center for the Max Planck Society. The provision of high-performance HPC systems has been one of its tasks for over 40 years. In 2020, the University of Göttingen / GWDG was accepted as one of eight computing centers in the National High-Performance Computing (NHR) network. The GWDG operates the HLRN-IV system "Emmy”, which is one of the most powerful computers in the world.

As a national supercomputing center, the GWDG provides technical support to researchers and students from various scientific domains, including earth system science, life science, and engineering. We also participate in both national and international research projects. At the same time, we aim to improve our close collaboration with the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and specialized computing centers, including the German Climate Computing Center (DKRZ) and the Institute for Advanced Simulation Jülich (IAS-JSC).

To add a new chapter to our commitment to providing innovative technical services, we are looking for a highly motivated candidate to be part of the QUICS (Quantum Innovation and Computing for SME) project. QUICS aims to provide low-threshold, secure, and reliable access to quantum resources for SMEs via an online portal. In addition to providing access, the goal is also to support companies by training them in different quantum technologies. Therefore, the successful candidate should have prior experience with using quantum technologies to solve problems in various domains and have experience in training and consulting.

The GWDG, along with the Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science and the Campus Institute Data Science (CIDAS) of the University of Göttingen, provides a stimulating research environment in Scientific Computing, with an opportunity to conduct research at the intersection of applied computer science, High-Performance Computing, Quantum Computing, and AI.
