About this position

Our group at the University of Arizona is accepting applications for a postdoc in structural materials informatics. The position sits at the intersection of the MSE Department, the NSF Center for New Frontiers of Sound, and the Graduate Program in Applied Mathematics, offering a highly interdisciplinary environment with industry partnerships and access to unique industrial samples.

The research combines non-destructive evaluation of structural materials with experimental characterization of alloys, physics-based modeling, and machine learning. Methods and topics mentioned include ultrasonic/acoustic/laser NDE, SEM, EBSD, EDS, XRD, resonant ultrasound spectroscopy, X-ray CT, signal processing, thermomechanical processing of structural alloys, physical metallurgy, and mechanics of structural materials.

Minimum qualifications include a Ph.D. in Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, or a closely related field, plus demonstrated research experience through first-author publications or equivalent. The post also emphasizes designing experimental workflows and SOPs, sample preparation, and metallographic analysis. Preferred skills include signal processing, advanced characterization methods, and knowledge of structural alloy processing.

To apply, candidates should email a CV and a brief statement of interest to [email protected] with "NDE & Characterization postdoc" in the subject line. No deadline or funding amount is stated in the post.
