Deadline:  2025-12-19

Location:  Trieste, Italy

The gravitational-wave physics group at SISSA (Trieste, Italy) invites expressions of interest for several postdoctoral research positions on the following topics: numerical-relativity simulations; environmental effects for binary systems; gravitational-wave data analysis and machine learning; waveform modeling.
The positions will start in the fall of 2026 and will be for two years, with possible extension conditional on satisfactory performance. These positions will be part of the GWSKy ERC synergy project www.gwsky.org.

The candidate will also be part of the Astroparticle Physics Group at SISSA (www.sissa.it/app/people.php). Trieste is a lively city by the Adriatic sea. It has plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities, and it is characterized by a high concentration of scientific research institutions — including, besides SISSA: the Institute for Fundamental Physics of the Universe (IFPU, www.ifpu.it/), the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP, www.ictp.it/), the National Institute for Astrophysics (INAF; Observatory of Trieste, www.oats.inaf.it/index.php/en/) and the National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN; Trieste Section www.ts.infn.it/en/).
Salary will be competitive and commensurate with experience.

Applications should consist of a cover letter, a CV, a publication list, a research statement and three reference letters, and should be received by December 19th to receive full consideration.
