About this position

Idaho National Laboratory is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher to join its Materials Performance team in the Materials and Manufacturing Department within the Energy, Environment Science & Technology Directorate. Based at the Idaho Falls facility, the researcher will work in a collaborative, interdisciplinary national-laboratory environment focused on materials that operate in nominal to harsh conditions, including challenging temperature, pressure, ionic concentration, and pH environments.

The project spans materials science and engineering, materials performance and characterization, process-informed science, materials and component design, engineering, and assessment. A central focus is integrating modeling and simulation with the development and evaluation of materials. The work may also involve high-strength, lightweight macro- to nanocrystalline metal alloys and manufacturing process development.

The researcher will conduct experimental and computational investigations of materials, including analysis of sintering behavior and the mechanisms governing material formation. They will use advanced characterization methods such as scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and mechanical testing to interpret material structure, properties, and performance.

The role includes collaboration with INL researchers, engineers, and external partners to advance field-assisted sintering for materials intended for harsh environments. The researcher will contribute to project activities, research proposals, technical reports, peer-reviewed publications, and scientific conference presentations, while supporting materials science and engineering programs with compressed project timelines.

Research will be carried out within INL’s applied research setting, which connects materials engineering, manufacturing, characterization, computational analysis, and energy and national-security applications.
