Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research fellow position in theoretical particle physics at the Asia Pacific Center for Theoretical Physics (APCTP), Pohang, South Korea. This position will be part of the Junior Research Group "Scattering Amplitudes and Precision Collider Phenomenology" lead by Dr. Heribertus Bayu Hartanto.

APCTP (www.apctp.org), founded in 1996, is an international organization dedicated to excellence in research and the training of young scientists in the Asia-Pacific region. APCTP offers a unique research environment incorporating a large diversity of fields (particle physics, statistical physics, string theory, condensed matter, cosmology).

Successful applicant will be expected to carry out research in theoretical particle physics. Prior experience in multi-loop scattering amplitude/Feynman integral computation, higher-order (NLO/NNLO) calculation in perturbative QFT framework or parton shower matching to higher-order computation is an advantage. A PhD in theoretical physics or a closely related field is required by the starting date of the position. We especially welcome applicants from historically underrepresented backgrounds.

The following documents should be submitted electronically to bayu.hartanto@apctp.org
1. a cover letter
2. a curriculum vitae
3. a list of publications
4. a statement of research interest (no more than 3 pages)
5. two letters of recommendation arranged to be sent directly from your referees

NOTE: Documents 1 to 4 should be sent in a single PDF file.

The initial appointment is for one year, renewable for one additional year. The position remains open until filled, but priority will be given to applications received by 31st of March 2026. The candidate can start as early as June 1st 2026 but no later than August 31st 2026.
