Title: Post Doctoral Research Associate Department: Chemistry and Environmental Science Reports To: Assistant Professor Chemistry and Environmental Science Position Type: Staff Position Summary: This research position involves directing research projects on the development and application of theories as well as computational codes and software to study magnetic bi-stability in conjugated coordination polymers. It will be extended to further development of in-house Crystal Structure Producer Python package and expanding our EC-MOF Database. The project may be modified within the limits of the objectives defined by the supporting grant or other funds. Essential Functions: The scholar is responsible for developing computational software required for creating initial crystal structures and conducting high-throughput DFT screening of new structures to identify magnetically bi-stable and electrically conductive materials. It is also expected that the scholar is actively engaged in analyzing data, writing the manuscripts and presenting the results of this research project in scientific journals and conferences. Additional Functions: Mentoring graduate students and helping the PI in writing grant proposals. Prerequisite Qualifications: * A PhD in Theoretical Chemistry, Physics, or a related field. * Postdoc experience. * Knowledge of coding languages like Fortran and Python. * Knowledge of condensed-phase materials chemistry and physics. * At the university's discretion, the education and experience prerequisites may be exempted where the candidate can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the university, an equivalent combination of education and experience specifically preparing the candidate for success in the position.
