HyLab's final goal is to create a worldwide reference Research, Development and Innovation(R&D+I) cluster with a strategic agenda focused on strengthening hydrogen competitiveness and creation of new products and services. Moreover, the HyLab will foster innovation, addressing the relevant supply chain components to enable a hydrogen-driven economy and to promote skilled and value-added job creation. It targets a gap between the academia and industrial ecosystems regarding the implementation of green hydrogen to boost the energy transition and to tackle its challenges, through the entire hydrogen value chain.
The HyLab involves valuable national and international R&D institutes, academia, industry companies, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), start-ups, and hydrogen-related technology manufacturing industries.
We are looking for a Lead Researcher to coordinate the Separation and Conversion Processes R&D and Innovation Line. This line focuses on developing technologies for the purification and separation of hydrogen and other gaseous streams within its value chain, and the conversion processes of hydrogen into other energy carriers and sustainable fuels. The Lead researcher will report to the Executive Director.
You will be challenged with:
1. Coordinate the Research and Innovation Line and the respective team within the scientific-technological area;
2. Monitoring and guidance of the team members (research fellows, students, and trainees), guaranteeing the quality of the technical-scientific work produced, and compliance with deadlines and budget;
3. Ensure the dissemination and
