We are looking for a Senior Materials Scientist with deep expertise in carbon materials and a strong interest in bio-based and sustainable technologies.
In this role, you will lead and contribute to advanced R&D on next-generation carbon materials derived from renewable sources, supporting the development of fossil-free solutions for applications in batteries, metallurgy, and other high-performance sectors.
You will join a multidisciplinary team working at the interface between materials science, chemistry, and industrial innovation. The position combines hands-on experimental work with conceptual process development, offering the opportunity to translate scientific insight into practical technologies that enable large-scale decarbonization.
Our mission is to accelerate the green transition by developing sustainable carbon materials that can replace fossil-based graphite in key industrial applications. Europe’s growing demand for strategic materials requires new, domestic, and climate-friendly solutions - this role contributes directly to that goal.
Key responsibilities
· Design and execute R&D programs focused on the development and optimization of bio-based carbon materials
· Plan and conduct laboratory and pilot-scale experiments related to carbon upgrading, conversion, and material performance
· Characterize and analyze materials using advanced techniques (XRD, SEM, Raman, BET, PSD, XPS, etc.)
· Interpret data and translate results into process improvements, new materials concepts, and performance validation
· Develop and refine experimental methods, analytical protocols, and quality control procedures
· Contribute to process design, modeling, and scale-up studies in collaboration with engineers and technical partners
· Engage with academic and industrial collaborators on joint R&D activities and material qualification projects
· Monitor research, technology, and market developments in carbon materials and related fields to inform innovation strategy
· Mentor researchers and help develop internal R&D capabilities
Qualifications
· PhD in Materials Science, Metallurgy, Chemistry, or a closely related field
· Expertise in carbon materials, such as graphite, carbon black, or biochar
· Demonstrated experience with laboratory and pilot-scale experimentation, including materials synthesis and process optimization
· Strong practical skills in materials characterization and data interpretation
· Experience in process modeling and techno-economic analysis
· Proven ability to bridge fundamental research and industrial application
· Track record of developing and validating new materials or processes in an R&D environment
· Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with attention to detail and reproducibility
· Experience in interdisciplinary collaboration and applied research partnerships
Beneficial experience
· Experience with bio-based carbon feedstocks or conversion processes
· Familiarity with graphite and its applications in batteries, metallurgy, or conductive materials
· Published research in the field of carbon materials, graphitization, or sustainable process design
· Experience contributing to or managing collaborative research projects (e.g., EU or national funding programs)
This is an opportunity to apply your scientific expertise to real-world impact, contributing to the development of sustainable carbon materials that underpin Europe’s green industrial transition. You will play a key role in advancing research that bridges science and application, shaping the next generation of bio-based graphite alternatives.
