CIDETEC is a technology centre that brings together three leading international centres in the fields of Energy Storage, Surface Engineering and Nanomedicine. For more than 25 years, we have been working with leading companies to develop technology that makes the world a better place.
A cutting-edge, diverse and international centre awaits you!
CIDETEC needs to recruit a researcher to work in the Multi-physics Modelling area in the Energy Materials Unit.
A researcher is required in the area of energy storage, capable of assisting in the development and implementation of multi-physics models for lithium ion and lithium metal batteries.
Responsibilities:
The researcher will join the Energy Materials Unit, working in training and/or transfer to company projects. They must be capable of carrying out several lines of research simultaneously, optimising resources and maximising results.
The successful candidate will work independently according to the defined work plan.
They will be in charge of implementing new mechanisms and features on an existing battery simulation code. This will require knowledge of Python programming as well as fluency in deducing and implementing variational formulations for complex models.
They will also be involved in:
Education:
Mathematics / Physics / Engineering
Languages:
High level of written and spoken English
Knowledge:
The successful candidate must demonstrate solid knowledge in:
- Python programming or advanced programming in another similar language and the ability to adapt
- Experience in implementing numerical methods for solving systems of differential equations and partial derivative equations
- Modelling and simulation of complex problems: multi-physics and multi-scale problems
Additionally, knowledge in the following areas will be an advantage:
- Lithium-ion and electrochemical battery modelling
- Modern programming tools, display and software development (Git/SVN, Plotly)
- Mathematical, statistical and machine learning optimisation
Observations:
We are seeking a highly motivated person with an interest in research and innovation to join a multi-disciplinary, multi-cultural team. They must be able to organise their work and meet deadlines and targets.
