Postdoctoral Researcher in Autonomous Materials Synthesis and Manufacturing at Purdue
Postdoctoral Researcher in Autonomous Materials Synthesis and Manufacturing
at
Purdue University
.
This postdoctoral opening is part of Purdue’s
Intelligent Codesign Cloud Lab for Non-Equilibrium and Low-Dimensional Materials (ICoN)
and the broader NSF
Programmable Cloud Laboratory (PCL)
ecosystem. The project sits at the intersection of
materials science
,
automation
,
robotics
,
artificial intelligence
,
machine learning
,
manufacturing
, and
advanced characterization
.
The research emphasis includes autonomous and cloud laboratories for advanced materials research, with particular interest in
ceramics
,
refractory alloys
,
2D materials
,
MAX phases
,
MXenes
, and other
non-equilibrium materials
. The postdoc will work with a multidisciplinary team and collaborate with researchers across the Purdue ICoN node, led by
Professor Alejandro Strachan
, as well as other PCL nodes.
Co-advising is mentioned with
Professors Michael Titus, Martin Jun, and Babak Anasori
. The poster is a
Reilly Associate Professor at Purdue University
and states that the position is in the poster’s own group and at Purdue.
Desired background
includes experience in materials synthesis or advanced manufacturing, laboratory automation and robotics, programming and robotic software, high-throughput or autonomous experimentation, AI/ML for scientific research, and characterization of advanced materials. Experience with ceramics, refractory alloys, and 2D materials synthesis is especially relevant.
Application deadline:
August 21, 2026.
