About this position

Postdoctoral Appointee in Computational Chemistry at Argonne National Laboratory in Lemont, Illinois, United States.

This postdoctoral opening is in the Chemical Sciences and Engineering Division and focuses on computational chemistry, quantum mechanics, electronic structure theory, and photocatalysis. The successful candidate will study transition metal-containing clusters for the photocatalytic conversion of small molecules such as CO2, using quantum mechanical calculations to determine cluster structures and investigate photochemical and photocatalytic properties.

The work is carried out in close collaboration with complementary experimental efforts, making this a strong opportunity for researchers interested in theory-experiment integration, catalytic reaction mechanisms, homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysis, and excited-state chemistry. Experience with TDDFT and excited-state optimization is considered an asset.

Eligibility highlights: recent or soon-to-be-completed PhD (within the last 0-5 years) in physical chemistry, inorganic chemistry, computational materials science, chemical engineering, or equivalent computational research experience; strong foundation in quantum mechanics and electronic structure theory; demonstrated computational expertise; excellent communication skills.

Funding: full-time postdoctoral appointment with an expected salary range of $72,879.00-$121,465.00 plus comprehensive benefits.

How to apply: submit an application through the Argonne Workday portal using the provided link. Review the posting and upload the required materials online.
