From Argonne's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
We invite applications for a Postdoctoral Appointee position in the Chemical Sciences and Engineering Division (CSE) at Argonne National Laboratory.
Working under the guidance of a supervisor, the successful candidate will conduct research focused on meso- and macroscale mathematical modeling of next-generation batteries, while leveraging advanced artificial intelligence (AI) tools to accelerate scientific discovery. Research areas include solid-state batteries with lithium and sodium metal anodes, as well as the morphology evolution of materials coupled with electrochemical and mechanical phenomena.
The selected candidate will develop computational models at the mesoscale and/or macroscale based on the principles of mass, momentum, and energy conservation to describe processes such as morphological change, dendrite growth, side reactions, delamination, and related behavior in hard and soft materials. A strong emphasis will be placed on the integration of AI methods and agentic workflows into model development and scientific analysis.
This position offers the opportunity to collaborate closely with experimental teams working in areas such as electrochemical characterization and synchrotron analysis, as well as with theoretical researchers specializing in atomistic simulation, density functional theory (DFT), and ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD). The successful candidate will also engage with collaborators across Argonne, other national laboratories, universities, and international research institutions.
Please note that the pay range information is a general guideline only. The pay offered to a selected candidate will be determined based on factors such as, but not limited to, the scope and responsibilities of the position, the qualifications of the selected candidate, business considerations, internal equity, and external market pay for comparable jobs. Additionally, comprehensive benefits are part of the total rewards package.
