About this position

The Shi group at the University at Buffalo is seeking a motivated Postdoctoral Associate to join their research team in the Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering. This position focuses on the intersection of chemical engineering, machine learning (including generative AI), and molecular simulation, with applications in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) and polymer membranes. The successful candidate will develop simulation algorithms and software to model gas adsorption behavior in porous materials, create novel machine learning models for predicting gas adsorption, and investigate molecular transport and separation mechanisms for membrane processes.

Applicants should have a PhD in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field, with expertise in at least one of the following: quantum mechanics, molecular simulation, or machine learning. A strong publication record and the ability to work independently are preferred. The position offers a competitive salary of $52,000 per year and a comprehensive benefits package, including health and retirement plans. The University at Buffalo is a leading public research university and a flagship of the State University of New York system, providing a vibrant academic environment and excellent resources for professional development.

The application deadline is March 20, 2026. To apply, submit a cover letter and CV through the UBJobs portal. For more information, contact Assistant Professor Kaihang Shi at [email protected]. This is an excellent opportunity for researchers interested in advancing the fields of chemical engineering, machine learning, and materials science, particularly in the context of MOFs and polymer membranes.
