At the time of application, the candidates should either have a PhD degree, or will obtain a PhD degree before signing the job contract. We search for candidates interested in the research in the domain of astrophysics. Candidates with previous experience in astrophysics, and in particular in optical observations, preferentially of active galactic nuclei and in programming, are particularly welcome. Among the tasks of the employed scientists will be modelling the expected continuum time delays in AGN accretion disks, applying for observations of such delays, analysis of the obtained data and simulating/analysing of the delay data expected from Vera C. Rubin Observatory, within the project the Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST).
