IBM Research seeks a Postdoctoral Researcher to apply quantum computing to 
drug discovery applications. The candidate will be expected to carry out 
high-impact research and engage in fruitful collaborations with other 
members of the team working on quantum algorithms and demonstrations of 
applications on quantum hardware by helping to design and optimize hybrid 
classical-quantum algorithms and workflows involving the use of molecular 
dynamics and machine learning tools for drug discovery. The successful 
candidate should demonstrate creativity in working with other team members 
to plan, design, and execute projects, experience communicating research 
results at national/international conferences and ability to work 
independently and in teams to deliver high-quality results with aggressive 
timelines.

Required Technical and Professional Expertise
*PhD degree in Chemistry, Biology, Physics, or a related area
*Advanced programming skills with Python, C/C++ or related languages
*Experience applying machine learning to solve problems in the physical 
sciences
*Experience with the development, assessment, and application of force 
fields (both atomistic and coarse-grained) for molecular simulations, 
especially of bimolecular systems
*Well-versed in molecular dynamics simulations, best practices, 
force fields, and associated software packages (e.g CHARMM, Amber, etc.)
*Well-versed in docking for drug discovery

Preferred Technical and Professional Expertise
*Knowledge and experience with quantum information science is desired
