The job will require the consideration of a broad range of applications including thermal, catalytic and electrochemical reactions, and dynamic property prediction at the atomistic level ranging from single molecule, to mixtures, to periodic materials and surface and interfacial chemistries. It is also important to know how to build relationships between the atomistic simulations and macroscopic properties of materials and reaction processes, while collaborating with experimentalists. The job will be focused on the application of computational chemistry (i.e., electronic structure theory, statistical mechanics, atomistic Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics) to a range of chemicals and reactive materials (e.g. metallocene catalysts, zeolites, metal nanoparticles, olefin polymerization).What you will do

• You will use computational chemistry methods to simulate and predict properties and chemical transformations for chemicals and polymers, including, but not limited to catalysis, kinetics, adsorption, and reactions involved in the manufacturing process
• You must be able to work independently, but closely with experimental chemists, materials scientists, characterization scientists, data scientists, and engineers to identify, adapt, develop, and deploy methods that bring commercial success to new products and processes
• The successful candidate will also know how to integrate traditional physics-based methods with data-driven methods (e.g., Machine Learning) to address these challenges to achieve actionable in-silico predictions.

About youSkills & Qualification:

• PhD in chemistry, chemical engineering, computational chemistry, physics, computational physics, or a related degree
• At least 3 years of computational chemistry research experience (including PhD research)
• Extensive expertise and experience with computation of chemical properties and reactions using electronic structure theory (e.g. density functional theory), Monte Carlo, and molecular dynamics, as well as corresponding modeling software packages
• Expertise in transition state theory, kinetics
• Experience with high performance computing and massively parallel computer systems
• Significant coding experience, preferably with fluency in Python or other scripting languages for automation and C++
• Solid background in catalysis, hydrocarbon chemistry, polymers, carbon materials, and the chemical processes for their manufacture
• Ability to propose, implement, and lead new approaches to accelerate chemicals and catalysis discovery and development
• Excellent communication with strong ability to develop partnerships and relationships across functional areas, and strong collaboration skills with experimentalists
• Experience with developing and deploying computational tools to support experimental efforts, and ability to convince users to utilize new tools and facilitate their implementation.

Preferred Qualification/ experience

• Statistical mechanics and thermodynamics (i.e., equations of state)
• Machine learning
• Industrial experience
