Job description

Description
PREP Research Associate
This position is part of the National Institute of Standards (NIST) Professional Research Experience (PREP) program. NIST recognizes that its research staff may wish to collaborate with researchers at academic institutions on specific projects of mutual interest, thus requires that such institutions must be the recipient of a PREP award. The PREP program requires staff from a wide range of backgrounds to work on scientific research in many areas. Employees in this position will perform technical work that underpins the scientific research of the collaboration.
Research Title:
Postdoctoral Research Associate in Fire Metrology
U.S. Citizen Preferred
The work will entail:
The National Fire Research Laboratory (NFRL) is the nation's premier laboratory for studying the dynamics of full-scale structural fires. The candidate will collaborate with researchers to develop and evaluate metrology to accurately measure heat, smoke production, and fire related emissions to better predict fire spread and the efficacy of fire safety solutions. The project aims to expand NFRL's measurement capabilities with applications of state-of-the-art technologies to improve existing temperature and heat transfer measurements and increase the current suite of gaseous emissions measurements, to better quantify heat and mass transfer induced by fire.
Key responsibilities will include but are not limited to:
  • Design experiments and conduct data analysis
  • Setup and deploy instrumentation and data acquisition
  • Develop strategies for real-time gas and smoke analysis
  • Develop strategies for acquiring and analyzing data from thermal sensors
  • Communicate results through presentations, technical reports, and archival journals

Qualifications
§ Ph.D. in Engineering (Mech, Aero, Fire Prtcn, Elect), Chemistry, Physics, or a related field
§ Hands-on experience in a research laboratory environment
§ Proficient in coding with Matlab (or Python) for data analysis
§ Ability to develop and execute research plans
§ Strong oral and written communication skills
§ U.S. Citizen Preferred
Application Instructions

About Johns Hopkins University

Sourced by ZipRecruiter

Gilman believed that teaching and research go hand in hand—that success in one depends on success in the other—and that a modern university must do both well. He also believed that sharing our knowledge and discoveries would help make the world a better place. In 145 years, we haven’t strayed from that vision. This is still a destination for excellent, ambitious scholars and a world leader in teaching and research. Distinguished professors mentor students in the arts and music, humanities, social and natural sciences, engineering, international studies, education, business, and the health professions. Those same faculty members, along with their colleagues at the university’s Applied Physics Laboratory, have made us the nation’s leader in federal research and development funding every year since 1979. That’s a fitting distinction for America’s first research university, a place that has revolutionized higher education in the U.S. and continues to bring knowledge and discoveries to the world.
