About this position
The Battery Science Branch at the DEVCOM Army Research Laboratory is seeking a highly motivated postdoctoral researcher to help pioneer next-generation energy storage technologies for Army operations. The project sits within the Electrolyte and Interface Science Team and targets foundational problems in battery safety, ultra-high-energy-density cell chemistries, and supply-chain resilience for systems that must function in extreme environments.
The successful researcher will design, synthesize, and evaluate advanced electrolyte formulations and active materials for lithium-ion, multivalent, and beyond-lithium chemical systems. The work emphasizes cutting-edge materials synthesis and formulation, along with electrochemical, spectroscopic, and microscopic characterization to understand electrolyte dynamics and interfacial mechanisms.
This position is embedded in a defense research environment with strong access to synthetic facilities and advanced diagnostic and characterization capabilities. The role also involves close collaboration with senior staff scientists to help shape research roadmaps and solve challenging energy-storage bottlenecks.
The research environment is positioned to produce high-impact publications, intellectual property disclosures, and conference presentations, while contributing directly to mission-driven energy innovation at ARL.
