Postdoctoral Fellow in Neutrino Astrophysics – Otte Research Group

School of Physics, Georgia Institute of Technology (Atlanta, GA). This full‑time, regular postdoctoral position invites applications to work on the Trinity Neutrino Observatory, a next‑generation experiment designed to detect ultra‑high‑energy neutrinos using air‑shower imaging telescopes.

• Lead the Monte Carlo simulation framework and analysis software development.
• Lead analyses of Trinity Demonstrator data and drive publication efforts.
• Help define the science reach, sensitivity projections, and performance requirements for Trinity One.
• Develop a strong, visible research program that connects Trinity’s neutrino observations with the broader multi‑messenger landscape (gamma‑ray, gravitational‑wave, and cosmic‑ray observatories).

• A Ph.D. in Astroparticle Physics, High‑Energy Physics, Astrophysics, or a closely related field.

• Substantial experience in simulation and data analysis.
• Demonstrated ability to work independently within a collaborative research environment.
• Experience with air‑shower simulations, neutrino physics, statistical inference, detector modeling, or large‑scale computing frameworks.

• Cover letter
• Statement of research interests (maximum two pages)
• Curriculum vitae, including publication list
• Names and contact information for three references
