Postdoc Position On Electrode Coatings for Alkaline Water Electrolysis

4 weken geleden


Eindhoven, Nederland TU Eindhoven Voltijd

**Job description**:
Do you want to contribute to the development of water electrolysis technology and in this way accelerate the implementation of green hydrogen? Then this project could be for you. It explores new electrode coating materials for alkaline water electrolyzers. With these new coating materials better electrolyzers can be developed that have a higher efficiency and better durability and in this way enable more affordable green hydrogen production.

The research is carried out in collaboration with a company developing alkaline water electrolyzers. In the project you will also closely work with another postdoc that will work on characterization (both electrochemical and non-electrochemical) of the coating materials.

**Research group**

The work will be carried out in the Electrochemical Engineering group at TU/e lead by professor Thijs de Groot. The research work in the group focuses on alkaline and anion-exchange membrane water electrolysis and addresses key aspects of these technologies, such as the membrane-electrode assembly design, gas crossover, ohmic resistance, bubble behavior, reverse currents and optimal integration with the rest of the plant. We closely work with industrial partners to ensure that the generated insights from our research will also find their way into practice.

**Job requirements**:
**Conditions of employment**:
A meaningful job in a dynamic and ambitious university, in an interdisciplinary setting and within an international network. You will work on a beautiful, green campus within walking distance of the central train station. In addition, we offer you:

- Full-time employment for 2 years and 3 months.
- Salary in accordance with the _Collective Labour Agreement_ for Dutch Universities, scale 10 (min. € 3,378 max. € 5,331).
- A year-end bonus of 8.3% and annual vacation pay of 8%.
- High-quality training programs on general skills, didactics and topics related to research and valorization.
- An excellent technical infrastructure, on-campus children's day care and sports facilities.
- Partially paid parental leave and an allowance for commuting, working from home and internet costs.
- A TU/e Postdoc Association that helps you to build a stronger and broader academic and personal network, and offers tailored support, training and workshops.
