About this position

Universidad Rey Juan Carlos in Madrid, Spain is advertising two research openings within the ION2MARKET-H2 project, a public-private collaboration focused on next-generation PEM and AEM water electrolyzers for green hydrogen production.

The openings are for a PhD position (3+1 years) and a Postdoctoral Researcher position (1 year) in Advanced Multiscale Modelling of Proton and Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolyzers. The work centers on computational electrochemistry and the development of predictive simulation tools for membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) and industrial hydrogen production.

Research topics include computational fluid dynamics (CFD), transport phenomena, electrochemical engineering, numerical methods, experimental validation, and green hydrogen technologies. The project aims to accelerate the design of high-performance electrolyzers through advanced multiscale and multiphysics modelling in collaboration with academic, technological, and industrial partners.

Eligibility highlights: the PhD role seeks candidates with an MSc in Mechanical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Computational Engineering, Applied Physics, or a related discipline; the postdoc role requires a PhD in a related field. Applicants should have a strong research profile, a solid background in numerical methods and CFD, experience with ANSYS Fluent, and excellent English communication skills.

Funding details are provided in the post: the PhD position offers a gross salary of €1,650/month, and the postdoctoral position offers a gross salary of €1,950/month. The post does not mention a deadline, tuition waiver, or scholarship programme.

To apply, upload your CV including contact details through the linked application form. The post explicitly states the location as Madrid, Spain.
