The successful candidate will be a materials scientist or synthetic chemist responsible for designing sequence-defined peptoids for controlled self-assembly into hierarchical structures and/or directing the formation of inorganic (nano)crystals. This researcher will be a team member of a newly-awarded $10.75 million, four-year Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) https://www.washington.edu/news/2018/08/03/uw-pnnl-to-host-energy-research-center-focusing-on-bio-inspired-design-and-assembly/. He or She will be frequently interacting with prominent researchers from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) and University of Washington. Instruments that will be used for peptoid synthesis and purification include Aapptec Apex 396 solid-phase synthesizer, Waters SQD2 UPLC-MS system, semi-prep HPLC and lyophilizer. Techniques like atomic force microscope (AFM), TEM, SEM, fluorescence microscope, UV-vis, FT-IR and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) will be used to characterize peptoid assemblies and/or peptoid-controlled nanoparticle formation.
Excellent oral and written communications skills are mandatory. Other duties will include publication of results in peer-reviewed journals, technical presentations at scientific conferences, and development of proposals for new research projects. The candidate must be able to independently design and carry out experiments as well as function productively as part of a multidisciplinary team.

Minimum Qualifications
Candidates must have received a PhD within the past five years (60 months) or within the next 8 months from an accredited college or university.

Preferred Qualifications
Ph.D. in chemistry, materials science, polymer science, chemical engineering, or related field
Solid background in organic synthesis, supramolecular self-assembly, and soft-matter characterization,
Experience using AFM, TEM, SEM, dynamic light scattering, X-ray diffraction, and fluorescent microscope to characterize soft-matter self-assembly and/or bio-controlled crystallization
Excellent publication record
Demonstrated capability to think and act independently
Strong analytical skills
Excellent written and oral communication skills
Ability to collaborate
Contact: Dr. Chun-Long Chen Chunlong.Chen@pnnl.gov

Candidates in US will be preferred
