  • How should green hydrogen be delivered to markets efficiently, considering geographical and economic constraints?
  • How can the entire green hydrogen supply chain—from production (Power-to-Hydrogen), storage, and pretreatment (liquid hydrogen technologies) to transportation and end-use—be optimized?
  • What are the most sustainable strategies for hydrogen-to-X (H2X) processes that can transform green hydrogen into valuable products?

  • Collaborating with team members and external partners to achieve the group's research objectives.
  • Presenting research findings at international conferences and publishing results in high-impact, peer-reviewed journals.

To support your research, you will have access to our comprehensive model library for hydrogen systems and sustainability topics.

Your experience and ambitions

We are seeking highly motivated candidates with a strong background in process systems engineering, energy systems, and sustainability analysis. The ideal candidate has:

  • Experience with process simulators such as Aspen Plus, Aspen Hysys, or similar packages
  • Experience using techno-economic analysis and LCA methodologies
  • Experience with LCA software and databases such as SimaPro or OpenLCA
  • Interest in renewable energy technologies, sustainability, and optimization
  • Proficiency in at least one programming language (Python, GAMS, Matlab, etc.) is considered an advantage but is not mandatory.
  • Master's degree in chemical engineering or a closely related field.

We offer

  • State-of-the-art facilities, equipment, and resources.
  • An open andinclusive work environment with dedicated colleagues.
  • Salary increases and incentives are possible and are performance-based.
