What Your Job Will Be Like
Our team is seeking a highly motivated Postdoctoral Appointee to conduct experimental electrochemical materials science R&D for energy storage research, particularly in the fields of sodium batteries and/or flow batteries.
You'll collaborate with accomplished scientists and use industry-leading equipment and facilities and gain compelling experiences in preparation for a career in this exciting area.
On any given day, you may be called on to:Contribute to a multidisciplinary, materials-focused research effort
Assemble and test sodium batteries and/or flow batteries
Coordinate, perform, and/or analyze data from materials characterization
Publish innovative research in leading peer-reviewed technical journals
Present cutting-edge research at technical conferences
Due to the nature of the work, the selected applicant must be able to work onsite
Qualifications We Require
Possess, or are pursuing, a PhD in a chemistry, materials, physics or engineering-related field (PhD must be conferred within five years prior to employment)
Laboratory experience in electrochemistry, electrocatalysis, or battery testing
Able to acquire and maintain a DOE Q-level security clearance
Qualifications We Desire
Experience with various electrochemical techniques (CV, EIS, GITT, galvanostatic cycling, etc.)
Strong background in electrochemical materials characterization, including battery testing and evaluation, ideally related to sodium, lithium, or similar batteries
Familiarity with flow batteries, their components, and cell assembly
Familiarity with materials characterization techniques, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Raman spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and electron microscopy (SEM/EDS, etc)
Experience developing new electrochemical test fixtures or apparatus to improve battery performance or elucidate materials limitations
Experience using and maintaining an inert atmosphere glovebox
Ability to interact with team members of diverse technical backgrounds
Desire to conduct independent, focused research
Candidates should be highly motivated, team-oriented individuals
About Our Team
The Nanoscale Sciences Department 1874 conducts collaborative groundbreaking research to advance the understanding of materials at the nanoscale and enable the collaborative development of creative solutions for Sandia's broad and evolving National Security and Energy Missions.
Our main work focuses on the discovery, understanding, and exploitation of properties and structures unique to the micro- and nanoscale, broadly directed along two thrusts:
Electrochemical Materials Science and Applications (e.g., energy storage, corrosion, chemical sensing);
Nanostructured Materials Science and Applications (e.g., hazardous materials capture/storage, sensing, membranes, water treatment, catalysis)
Our team is committed to a nurturing environment compatible with a broad group of people and perspectives in accordance with the changing makeup of the workforce.
Posting Duration
This posting will be open for application submissions for a minimum of seven (7) calendar days, including the 'posting date'.
Security Clearance
Sandia is required by DOE to conduct a pre-employment drug test and background review that includes checks of personal references, credit, law enforcement records, and employment/education verifications.
Applicants offered employment with Sandia are subject to a federal background investigation to meet the requirements for access to classified information or matter if the duties of the position require a DOE security clearance.
Substance abuse or illegal drug use, falsification of information, criminal activity, serious misconduct or other indicators of untrustworthiness can cause a clearance to be denied or terminated by DOE, resulting in the inability to perform the duties assigned and subsequent termination of employment.
EEO
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, or veteran status and any other protected class under state or federal law.
If you have a Medical Portable Electronic Device (MedPED), such as a pacemaker, defibrillator, drug-releasing pump, hearing aids, or diagnostic equipment and other equipment for measuring, monitoring, and recording body functions such as heartbeat and brain waves, if employed by Sandia National Laboratories you may be required to comply with NNSA security requirements for MedPEDs.
If you have a MedPED and you are selected for an on-site interview at Sandia National Laboratories, there may be additional steps necessary to ensure compliance with NNSA security requirements prior to the interview date.
This postdoctoral position is a temporary position for up to one year, which may be renewed at Sandia's discretion up to five additional years.
Individuals in postdoctoral positions may bid on regular Sandia positions as internal candidates, and in some cases may be converted to regular career positions during their term if warranted by ongoing operational needs, continuing availability of funds, and satisfactory job performance.
