We are seeking a talented Theoretical Physicist specializing in Atomic, Molecular, and Optical (AMO) physics to support and guide experimental research and development efforts. The successful candidate will develop theoretical models, perform simulations, and provide analytical insight that informs the design and optimisation of cutting-edge quantum and optical systems.Key Responsibilities

Design and refine theoretical models for laser cooling and control of metastable atomic beams.Tackle fundamental physics challenges associated with generating high-flux, cold neutral atom beams.Build and implement numerical simulations to validate theoretical approaches,



incorporating practical engineering constraints.Develop robust simulation tools to support cross-functional teams.Partner with theory, simulation, and experimental groups on interdisciplinary projects.Create, maintain, and review high-quality code and technical documentation.Required Qualifications

PhD in AMO Physics, Quantum Optics, or a related field.Strong background in laser cooling and manipulation of atoms.Direct experience with atom beams or supersonic sources.Proficiency in numerical simulation tools (Python, MATLAB, Julia, C++, or equivalent).Excellent problem-solving skills and ability to communicate complex concepts clearly.
