About this position
RECAT at Luleå University of Technology is recruiting a postdoctoral researcher in cyber-physical systems to contribute to the transition toward data-driven and self-adapting production systems for battery manufacturing.
The project sits within the new Research Center for Advanced Battery Technology (RECAT) and is linked to the system-integrated battery manufacturing competence center INBATT. The research views the battery factory as an integrated cyber-physical system, where data from machines, sensors, quality control, and operators are combined to support adaptive control, increased flexibility, and more efficient use of resources.
The work focuses on digitalization, data management, and IT/OT integration for sustainable and scalable production. A central theme is trustworthy and traceable product data along the battery value chain, from materials and components to finished cells, reuse, and recycling. The postdoc will work on architectures and software solutions that integrate, manage, and securely share product data, including digital product passports and controlled access to data.
The position is embedded in an interdisciplinary environment with researchers in machine learning, control engineering, operations and maintenance, and sustainable production, in close collaboration with industrial partners. The project also builds on experience from other industrial value chains and contributes to RECAT’s work on digital twins and integrated product and production development.

What's required
A doctoral degree or equivalent foreign degree in cyber-physical systems or another relevant field is required, preferably awarded no more than three years before the application deadline unless special circumstances apply. Applicants must have documented experience in data integration from multiple sources and strong software development skills, including data exchange via different interfaces. Very good spoken and written English is required. Merit is given for knowledge of digital product passports and related regulations/standards such as ESPR, GS1 Digital Link and GTIN, experience with machine-readable and linked data formats such as JSON-LD, environmental and sustainability data such as LCA, EPD and PCF, research collaboration with industry especially in steel or manufacturing, and knowledge of Swedish. Personal qualities sought include being independent, structured, solution-oriented, and able to collaborate and communicate clearly in interdisciplinary and industrial settings.
