**The Faculty of Science, Technology and Medicine** (FSTM) contributes multidisciplinary expertise in the fields of **Mathematics**, **Physics**, **Engineering**, **Computer Science**, **Life Sciences** and **Medicine**. Through its dual mission of teaching and research, the FSTM seeks to generate and disseminate knowledge and train new generations of responsible citizens, in order to better understand, explain and advance society and environment we live in.

The University of Luxembourg is seeking to hire a highly motivated and outstanding researcher in the area of hydrogen reactors and membrane systems.

We’re looking for people driven by excellence, excited about innovation, and looking to make a difference. If this sounds like you, you’ve come to the right place

**Your Role...**:
The Paul Wurth Chair is building up a range of new experimental facilities, in collaboration with industrial partners and to pursue externally funded research projects, often involving Masters and PhD students. These include:

- The construction of a catalytic reactor and separator system for conversion of ammonia to hydrogen-rich gas mixtures and purification of these gas mixtures
- The design and construction of an electrochemical system for detailed investigation of electrocatalysts and new electrochemical engineering concepts for production of hydrogen from ammonia
- The design and construction of thermal and catalytic pyrolysis reactors for hydrogen-rich gas mixtures

Your role is to work intensively with fellow researchers, technicians, suppliers and partners to design, build and operate these experimental facilities, carrying out research projects and publishing your results in high-impact journal articles. The Paul Wurth Chair is also procuring a wide range of new, state-of-the-art characterization equipment which you will also help commission, operate and maintain. Your writing tasks will include safety, operation documentation, reports to sponsors and partners, and research publications from the projects involving this equipment.

The position is particularly targeted at researchers who aim to establish their own independent research career (for example as a research group leader or junior/assistant professor), and to this end, extensive career development assistance will be provided. The appointed researcher will also help to prepare new research proposals for national and European projects, and if funded, help lead the projects to establish an independent research and funding track record.

**What we expect from you**:

- A PhD degree in chemical engineering or a related field
- Sound publication track record in relevant journals
- Proven experience is establishing and operating lab facilities using gas mixtures and preferably hydrogen
- Good communication skills in English
- Experience of working with industrial projects or public funded research projects is desirable
- Experience in team working

**In Short...**:

- Contract Type: Fixed Term Contract 36 Month (which may be extended by an additional 24 months)

- Name, affiliation and contact details of three referees
