Postdoctoral Position in Global Detection Techniques for Radicals in Air

Popis:

Responsibilities Oxygenated organic radicals are important drivers of chemistry in many systems, such as metabolism in living organisms, polymerization, combustion systems, and the natural environment (Earth's atmosphere). However, few techniques can detect them today, particularly in complex systems. We are seeking a motivated candidate to develop and apply global detection techniques for oxygenated radicals in ambient air and other complex systems. The work will involve both operation and troubleshooting of existing techniques, such as chemical amplification, and development and characterization of entirely new techniques, to be used both in laboratories and in ambient air. This position will be within the Nozière group at the Department of Chemistry at KTH Royal Institute of Technology in Stockholm. Qualifications Requirements Completed PhD or foreign degree assessed as equivalent to a PhD in chemistry, physics, or related field. This qualification requirement must be met by the time the employment decision is made. Experimental experience with gas flow systems. Experience with instrument development or at least troubleshooting. Excellent written and oral communication skills in English as required for daily work. Strong problem-solving skills. Self-motivated, detail-oriented, and goal-focused. Ability to work both independently and collaboratively with a team. Merits At the final application deadline, no more than three years since completion of a PhD or a foreign degree assessed as equivalent to a PhD. Awareness of diversity and equal treatment issues with particular focus on gender equality. Knowledge of atmospheric chemistry or gas-phase kinetics. We will place great emphasis on personal qualities. Become Part of KTH KTH shapes the future through education, research, and innovation. As a leading international technical university, we play an active role in driving and participating in the transformation toward a sustainable society. Here you are offered the opportunity to grow and develop in a creative and dynamic workplace with good working conditions and benefits. Gender equality, diversity, and equal conditions are a quality issue and a natural part of KTH's values as a university and state authority. Read more about our benefits and what it's like to work and develop at KTH. Trade Union Representatives Contact information for trade union representatives. Application You apply through KTH's recruitment system. As an applicant, you bear primary responsibility for ensuring your application is complete when submitted. The application should contain: CV including relevant professional experience and knowledge. Copy of degree certificate. Translations into English or Swedish if the original documents are not issued in one of these languages. List of publications. Brief description (maximum 2 pages) of your motivation for this position, your scientific interests, and future goals. Additionally, three letters of reference should be sent directly to Prof. Noziere. The application must be received by KTH no later than the final application deadline at midnight, CET/CEST (Central European Time/Central European Summer Time). About the Position The position is permanent, but maximum two years. A postdoctoral position is a time-limited merit-based position with primary focus on research intended as a first career step after PhD completion. Other For information on processing of personal data in connection with recruitment. It may occur that an employment at KTH is classified as a security-sensitive position. If this is the case for this position, a security clearance of the applicant will be conducted in accordance with the Security Protection Act (2018:585) with consent. In these cases, a prerequisite for employment is that the applicant is approved following security clearance.
