Popis:

Job Responsibilities The position primarily involves research and development in aerosol technology and nanoparticle synthesis. The researcher will play a central role in developing advanced experimental methods and research infrastructure for the production of nanoparticle-based materials. The specific research project focuses on leading the design, construction, and testing of a new aerosol nanoparticle system to further develop aerosol-based methods for producing nanoparticle materials. Primary responsibilities include developing, optimizing, and integrating aerosol instrumentation for controlling aerosol formation processes. The work also includes simulation, design, testing, and construction of an aerosol nanoparticle generator based on spark discharge. The researcher is expected to take a leading role in the project, including planning and coordinating research activities, supervising doctoral students and thesis workers, and maintaining active collaborations with industrial partners and international research groups. Beyond method development, the project includes research aimed at increasing understanding of how nanoparticle properties affect catalytic performance. This work involves nanoparticle characterization using advanced analytical techniques, including electron microscopy. The researcher will also serve as a resource within the research group regarding aerosol instrumentation, aerosol measurements, and aerosol processes, and contribute to knowledge dissemination and competence development within the group. Job duties include: research and development in aerosol technology for producing new nanoparticle-based materials. development and maintenance of software solutions for integration, automation, control, and data collection in the experimental aerosol nanoparticle system. planning, coordinating, and directing research activities within the project. supervision of doctoral students, thesis workers, and students. establishment and maintenance of collaborations with industrial partners and international research groups. research related to nanoparticle characterization and catalytic applications. participation in teaching and educational activities at bachelor, advanced, and doctoral levels as needed. participation in procurement and development of research infrastructure and laboratory equipment. preparation of reports, scientific publications, research proposals, and project-related administration. Qualifications Eligibility for employment as a researcher requires completion of a doctoral degree. Requirements for employment include: completion of a doctoral degree in physics, materials science, mechanical engineering, or another relevant field for the position. strong English language skills, both spoken and written. strong scientific background in aerosol science, aerosol technology, nanoparticle synthesis, or related research areas. practical experience and theoretical knowledge of aerosol instrumentation and aerosol processes. documented experience in planning, coordinating, and directing research projects. documented experience in design, construction, operation, and characterization of experimental systems for generating, measuring, and analyzing engineered nanoparticles. experience in software development for scientific instrumentation, including data acquisition, instrument control, automation, and system integration. strong knowledge of MATLAB and Python for scientific programming, data analysis, and experiment control. experience in nanoparticle characterization using electron microscopic techniques, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and analysis of nanoparticle morphology and properties. ability to work independently while effectively contributing to research collaborations with academic and industrial partners. Merits for employment include: experience with nanoparticle generation using spark discharge or similar aerosol-based synthesis methods. experience with nanoparticle characterization using advanced analytical techniques. experience with CAD software for design and development of experimental equipment and research infrastructure. experience in scientific writing, publishing research results, and preparing research proposals. experience in teaching and educational activities related to aerosol technology, nanoparticle synthesis, or experimental research methods. Additional Information The position as researcher is fixed-term for the period 2026-09-25 to 2027-09-24 and involves 50% employment. Researchers are covered by the "local collective agreement on annual working time for researchers and research assistants." Annual working time is planned through dialogue between supervisor and employee. How to Apply The application should include a CV and a personal letter explaining why you are interested in the position and how the position matches your qualifications. The application must include a certificate of doctoral degree and should also include anything else you wish to provide (copies of grades, references, recommendation letters, etc.). We welcome your application!
