Postdoctoral Researcher in Electrolytes for Sodium Ion Batteries
CIC energiGUNE
Vitoria-Gasteiz, Spain
JOB DESCRIPTION:
CIC energiGUNE is recruiting a researcher for the Organic and Hybrid Materials Research Group for Na-ion Research Line.
Main job functions:
- Rationally design and develop novel electrolytes for sodium-ion batteries.
- Perform advanced characterization of electrolytes.
- Investigate the interfacial behavior of electrolytes with electrodes, focusing on SEI formation from electrolyte stability point of view (degradation mechanism, role of electrolyte components).
- Collaborate with multidisciplinary teams working on electrode design and cell assembly to integrate electrolytes into full-cell configuration.
- Conduct electrochemical testing (e.g., EIS, CV, GITT) and analyze the results to understand the performance and overall degradation mechanisms
CANDIDATE PROFILE:
- PhD in Chemistry, Electrochemistry, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, or related fields.
- Strong background in electrolyte development for energy storage systems (e.g., sodium-ion batteries, lithium-ion batteries, or beyond).
- Hands-on experience with electrochemical characterization techniques (EIS, CV, and galvanostatic cycling)
- Proficiency in data analysis and interpretation of electrochemical results.
- Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
- Excellent level in English, both written and spoken (proficiency or equivalent).
