  • Ph.D. in Materials Science, Physics, Chemistry, or a related Engineering discipline; minimum 2years post‑Ph.D. experience.
  • Demonstrated high‑impact research using and developing aberration‑corrected STEM and EELS, with frequent peer‑reviewed publications.
  • Technical expertise and strong interest in optimizing electron microscopes.
  • Active membership in electron microscopy and materials science professional societies; regular conference presentations.
  • Commitment to laboratory safety and a respectful work environment.
Preferred Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities
  • We prefer a Ph.D. holder with a minimum of 4years post‑Ph.D. experience.
  • Experience with a broad range of electron microscopy techniques, including 4D‑STEM, tomography, and in‑situ methods.
  • Evidence of developing data analytics tools using Python or other programming languages for microscopy data (spectra and images).
  • Hands‑on experience operating and maintaining Nion STEMs.
  • Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, and enthusiasm for interdisciplinary collaboration.
  • Ability to work effectively in both leadership and supporting team roles.
