As the experiment is still in its formative stage, you will have the rare opportunity to shape its development, contribute original ideas, and acquire hands-on experience across the full experimental stack\u2014from laser cooling and trapping to high-resolution imaging and Rydberg excitation.<\/p>\r\n<p>Related to this new research line, the DIPC invite applications for\u00a0<strong>two Tenure-Track Research positions<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>as Ikerbasque Research Fellows<\/strong>\u00a0to join the tweezer lab in San Sebastian at DIPC.\u00a0This research activities will be performed in close collaboration with our group at the University of Innsbruck and the Institute of Quantum Optics and Quantum Information of the Austrian Academy of Sciences and will strongly benefit from synergies with local theory groups.<\/p>\r\n<p>The Ikerbasque fellows will lead the scientific and technical development of this cutting-edge quantum experiment and will be strongly involved in defining the scientific strategy. Both positions are open to researchers with more than 2 years of experimental post-doc experience in the field of ultracold quantum gases.\u00a0<strong>The deadline for applications is the 27.03.2026.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\r\n<h1><strong>HOW TO APPLY?<\/strong><\/h1>\r\n<p>Interested candidates should submit a single PDF including:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>A motivation letter describing their experience, research interests, and expectations.
