The 'Dynamics of Stellar Systems' research group (https://dynamics.univie.ac.at/), led by Prof. Glenn van de Ven, is part of the Department of Astrophysics (https://astro.univie.ac.at/en/) at the University of Vienna. The research group constructs detailed dynamical models of galaxies and stellar clusters to infer the distribution of luminous and dark matter as well as to uncover the formation history of these stellar systems. Our ideal candidate has a solid background in computational astrophysics, strong track record in software development, and keen interest in dynamics of stellar systems. A key task is to lead the development and support applications of our pioneering code for orbital modelling of stellar systems, publicly released under the name DYNAMITE (https://www.ascl.net/code/v/2684).
