Material Scientist/Theoretical Chemist
About the role
We are looking for a mission-driven, experienced and climate-aware material
scientist/theoretical chemist to help us understand the fundamentals of hydrogen production
at a molecular level and interpret/analyze lab results on the tested catalysts. Results will allow
for a better quantification of the catalytic effect enabling a more accurate and controlled design
of the catalytic solutions.
This position will be part of our client’s research team which includes several world-class
researchers on the thermodynamics and geochemistry of stimulated hydrogen production.
Your responsibilities
- Model at a molecular level the redox reactions leading to hydrogen production in the different
geological contexts of interest
- Analyze and interpret experimental data from catalysts testing in view of the model
- Run molecular dynamic simulations to better understand the catalytic effect of the tested
compounds
- and generally, support the R&D work for our client
As an early hire in a fast-growing company, success means the role will evolve towards more
responsibilities. The candidate will play a key role in the overall technical developments, client
success and overall climate impact.
Required background
- PhD in theoretical chemistry, material science or equivalent
- Experience in theoretical and numerical modeling of redox reactions
- Experience in molecular dynamics
- Hands on proven lab experience and autonomy
