The Institute of High Energy Physics (IHEP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) in Beijing, China, invites applications for Post-doctoral positions on the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

IHEP is a national laboratory and the premier high-energy physics center in China. The institute hosts a Tier-2 Grid site and provides excellent computing resources. The IHEP ATLAS team consists of 14 staff members and approximately 30 postdocs and graduate students. The group is deeply engaged in physics analyses and the detector upgrade for the ATLAS experiment, including Higgs physics (both within the Standard Model [SM] and beyond the Standard Model [BSM]), SM measurements, Supersymmetry and other BSM searches, as well as the Phase-II upgrade of the ATLAS detector.

Candidates are expected to contribute to BSM searches, the upgrade of the Tile Calorimeter, and the development of AI applications for particle physics.

The candidate needs to have a BSc and postgraduate degree in physics or engineering. The position will be based in Beijing.

Interested candidates should send their application materials (curriculum vitae, a brief description of research interests, university transcripts, and three letters of recommendation) to Prof. Bruce Mellado (bmellado@mail.cern.ch) and Ms. Shanjun Ren (rensj@ihep.ac.cn). Please include “IHEP ATLAS Post-doctoral Application” in the e-mail subject line.

Applications submitted by August 15, 2026 will receive full priority consideration.
