vor 16 Stunden
Materials science and technology are our passion. With our cutting-edge research, Empa's around 1,100 employees make essential contributions to the well-being of society for a future worth living. Empa is a research institution of the ETH Domain.
Post-Doc position in tribology of high speed, electrical contacts
The project will mainly be carried out in the Laboratory for Surface Science and Coating Technologies but will involve close collaborations with engineers and corrosion scientists at Empa. The laboratories involved in this project offer a wide range of state of the art equipment. There will also be close collaboration with a large international company in Zurich.
Your tasks
Your tasks will include the design of testing equipment required to imitate the working mechanism of an industrial application. A significant part of this will be the assessment of various sensors to determine the most beneficial. Pre- and post-testing, comprehensive surface chemical and mechanical analyses will be required to characterize the wear and friction properties and validate the equipment.
Your profile
- PhD in Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, or Experimental Physics
- Experience in determining mechanical properties at surfaces
- Experience in surface chemical analysis or imaging
- Enthusiasm for designing of equipment
- Highly motivated to work in an interdisciplinary group
Our offer
This research, part of a large industrial project, will be carried out primarily at Empa in Dübendorf, near Zurich. The expected starting date will be in spring of 2025 and the project will run for 2 years. Empa offers excellent infrastructure in a highly interdisciplinary environment and encourages participation in international conferences.
We live a culture of inclusion and respect. We welcome all people who are interested in innovative, sustainable and meaningful activities - that's what counts.
We look forward to receiving your complete online application including a letter of motivation, CV, certificates, diplomas and contact details of two reference persons. Please submit these exclusively via our job portal. Applications by e-mail and by post will not be considered.
