We invite interested candidates to apply for a Postdoctoral Appointee position on scale-up science for emerging technologies, with a primary focus on techno-economic, manufacturing and market-adoption analysis for electrochemical technologies such as CO2 conversion to value added chemicals. The successful candidate will join the Center for Energy, Environmental and Economic Systems Analysis (CEEESA) within the Energy Systems and Infrastructure Analysis (ESIA) Division at Argonne. In this role, the candidate will lead the development of public-facing software for techno-economic analysis (TEA) and scale-up of emerging electrochemical technologies, such as electrochemical energy storage and CO2 electrolyzer systems. Responsibilities include collecting, organizing, and maintaining a comprehensive technology data library, and modeling technology scale-up and adoption using supply chain and market information, along with expert knowledge and systematic statistical methods. The candidate will also lead integrated process modeling, develop models for predicting technology learning rates and commercialization timelines, and contribute to technology design and optimization. Additionally, the candidate will prepare reports, presentations, and manuscripts to effectively communicate project progress and outcomes. The candidate must demonstrate the ability for convergent thinking and will receive a supportive and enabling environment to develop research projects, grow research collaborations, communicate impactful research outcomes in peer-reviewed journals, and support other related projects within the team’s portfolio. Experience or familiarity with life cycle analysis is a plus, but not required. **Position Requirements** + PhD in chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, sustainability science, or relevant physical or social sciences field. + Experience with scientific literature review, data collection and analytics. + Experience with techno-economic analysis and engineering process modeling. + Expertise with modern scientific programming languages like Python and Julia. + Ability to integrate diverse knowledge, methods, and perspectives to drive analysis and innovation. + Ability to lead research projects, establish collaborations, and work with multidisciplinary research teams. + Skilled oral and written communication skills at all levels of the organization. + Ability to model Argonne’s core values of impact, safety, respect, integrity, and teamwork. + Ability to make our laboratory a safe, welcoming, inclusive, and accessible environment where all can thrive.
