För kunds räkning har vi publicerat denna annons, vill du komma i kontakt med den slutgiltiga arbetsgivaren kan du klicka dig vidare till annonsen: Are you a researcher recently awarded a doctoral degree, with a wish to continue your research in a field focusing on the applicability of LCA as a decision support in early development of chemicals, materials and products? Do you consider human toxicity and ecotoxicity indicators in LCA an interesting research topic? Then maybe you are our new colleague. About the role IVL manages the research programme Mistra SafeChem, where method development for chemical footprints (herein: LCA with strong focus on human toxicity and ecotoxicity) is one of the research tasks in an LCA oriented work package. The aim is to use LCA as a tool to monitor and reduce the exposure from hazardous chemicals. The specific objectives of the work package are: • To further advance a life cycle based chemicals assessment toolbox developed during 2020-2024, and increase its utility to industry. • To strengthen the link with the machine learning world to increase chemical space coverage. • To increase focus on life cycle inventory (LCI) relevant for chemical footprints and by that reduce associated uncertainty. • Develop prospective LCA methods applicable to a (re)design context with an aim to reduce exposure to hazardous chemicals. This early career research position is intended as a task lead and main researcher for the programme activities on the further advancement of methods for assessing the toxicological potentials of product systems. This research is integrated in that of the wider work package activities. Qualifications To succeed in the role you have: a recent PhD in life cycle assessment, chemistry, chemical engineering, toxicology, ecotoxicology, or equally relevant fields documented training and/or experience in LCA and its application a true interest in working cross disciplines full proficiency in oral and written English, Swedish is a merit Who are you? We are seeking a highly self-motivated person who wants to continue his/her strong publication record in collaboration with new colleagues and with new challenges. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in life cycle based chemicals assessment and a deep understanding of modelling. Extra merits would be machine learning, material science or experience from work with the concept Safe and Sustainable by Design. You are a true team player who likes to challenge and develop your ideas together with colleagues from different disciplines. We put great emphasis on your personal characteristics. What we offer We work in a creative and developing environment where everyone has a large part of their own responsibility and good opportunities for personal and professional development. As an employee at IVL, you become part of a workplace that values diversity, collaboration, innovation and commitment. There is a wonderful community here as well as sports club, art association, parties, pubs and other activities. We are sit in activity-based premises.

We are building a state-of-the-art facility and a world-class team of technologists for R&D into next-generation battery cells, and now we are looking for Specialist in Electrolyte Additives to make it happen. Are you ready to shape the future while honing your leadership skills and becoming an expert in a technical field that will revolutionize the world? In this role you will spread and lead the technological development of our product from electrolyte additive development and evaluation to material integration in cells. At NOVO Energy we enable Volvo Cars to go fully electric by 2030. We are a joint venture, with the benefit of funding and expertise from our two strong mother companies Northvolt & Volvo Cars. Embrace an awe-inspiring challenge and be at the forefront of technological advancement. We are focused on integrating cutting-edge cell technology into vehicle design, ensuring safety, performance, and sustainability. Together we push the boundaries of battery design in a fast-paced environment. What You’ll Do Your work will focus on understanding the fundamentals of electrolyte additives and how they influence the performance of automotive batteries. You will lead planning and execution of experiments, validation of analytical methods, and analyze data to assess which new materials, deployed together, will enable Novo Energy to meet performance requirements for next-generation Volvo Cars. - Design and evaluate new and already commercialized electrolyte additives to match the requirements from Volvo's vehicle specifications. - Plan and execute experiments in collaboration with Engineering team. Based on sound statistical methods, plan and deliver efficient experimental campaigns that provide actionable information about battery electrolytes. - Discover causative relationships. Connect material-level properties to product-level battery performance specs. Figure out methods of predicting cell performance based on analytics at electrolyte level. - Once validated, work closely with cell designers to scale new materials into full-size cell designs.
