• Conduct synthesis of inorganic thermoelectric materials using various high-throughput synthesis techniques.

• High-throughput synthesis of materials for CO2 reduction will also be conducted.

• Develop new high-throughput methods, and accordingly modify hardware for their execution.

• Perform in-depth characterization of synthesized materials using XRD, SEM, and EDS.

• Deploy machine learning techniques to guide future experimental campaigns. In addition to regression methods (Gradient Boosting, Random Forest) it is desirable to be familiar with Bayesian Optimization.

Job Requirement

• Bachelors or Masters in Materials Science, Chemistry, Physics, Applied Physics, Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering with research experience in synthesis and lab skills

• Experience in inorganic synthesis of nanomaterials and solid-state compounds.

• Experience in advanced analysis of X-ray diffraction e.g. through Rietveld refinement

• Knowledge of Bayesian Optimization

• Ability to work in a team with clear communication skills and to develop own ideas in 1-2 years' time.

• A can-do attitude in a fast-paced research environment.
