We have an opening for a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopist to independently work on the characterization of inorganic, organic, and polymeric materials using routine and advanced NMR spectroscopy. You will be an integral member of an interdisciplinary team responsible for conducting and supporting research to understand aging and degradation mechanisms as well as structure-function relationships in a variety of materials used for industrial and energy applications. This position is in the Materials for Energy and Climate Security group of the Materials Science Division.

In this role you will

• Design and conduct complex experiments related to the characterization of materials using solid-state and solution NMR spectroscopy.
• Conduct advanced research toward an improved understanding of the aging and degradation mechanisms of materials.
• Serve as the primary technical contact on the design and analysis of experimental tests to determine materials structure, physical properties, and degradation mechanisms.
• Collaborate with scientists in a multidisciplinary and multi-institution team environment to accomplish research goals.
• Develop and present written analyses and verbal briefings that capture and communicate research results as well as periodic progress reports.
• Publish research results in peer-reviewed scientific or technical journals and present results at external conferences, seminars and/or technical meetings.
• Perform routine maintenance, troubleshooting, and repair on NMR instruments.
• Perform other duties as assigned.
