OtherThe position is largely funded by the Wallenberg Center for Quantum Technology (WACQT), and comes with a start package. Wallenberg Centre for Quantum Technology (WACQT) is a 12-year one-billion-SEK research programme that aims to take Swedish research and industry to the forefront of quantum technology – a very rapidly expanding area of technology. WACQT is the Swedish national initiative for strategically motivated basic research, education and faculty recruitment in quantum technology, aiming at developing and securing Swedish expertise within its main areas, encompassing quantum computing and simulation, quantum communications and quantum sensing. In addition, WACQT promotes career development, diversity and equality through networking and support activities at the national level.
Time limitation: The appointment is for an indefinite term, but no more than six years, and may be extended if, due to the teacher's absence due to sick leave, parental leave or other special grounds, more time is required to reach the objectives of the appointment.
