Forschungszentrum Jülich GmbH (Research Center Jülich) is one of the largest, interdisciplinary research centers in Europe. With its powerful supercomputing resources and attractive geographic location in proximity to many German and European urban centers it gives attractive opportunity for cutting edge and enjoyable research.

Computational Materials Modeling division at the Institute for Energy and Climate Research, IEK-13: Theory and Computation of Energy Materials, in Forschungszentrum Jülich, is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to perform ground-breaking, computer-based simulation of materials for electrochemical energy technologies. The successful candidate will focus on the development and applications of computational methodologies for reliable, accurate and fast atomic-scale simulations of energy materials. Harnessing the world-class supercomputing infrastructure of the research center, the foreseen simulations will contribute to deciphering the effects of materials structure and electronic properties on electrocatalytic processes.

Research at IEK-13 combines theoretical physics, computer simulations and physical modeling to study how energy materials form, function, fade and fail. We employ theory and computation to close gaps in understanding structural and mechanistic phenomena in materials; discover or develop physical relations between structure, properties and performance of complex multifunctional components; and enable the model-based diagnosis and optimization of electrochemical devices. Furthermore, we orchestrate modeling and data analytics with artificial intelligence to accelerate the materials workflow.
