At the Department of Environmental Chemistry, we focus on the occurrence, distribution, and fate of organic compounds in aquatic environments, aiming to develop innovative solutions for a cleaner, healthier future. Our research spans a range of compounds, from small anthropogenic pollutants to larger biomolecules like proteins and natural toxins. We operate a fleet of 20 high-end mass spectrometers for various LC / GC coupled to HRMS and IRMS applications. To remain at the forefront of environmental chemistry, we continuously expand our analytical and data processing capabilities.
We are seeking a specialist who supports scientists and technicians in our department and in Eawag’s Mass Spectrometry Facility with
processing, evaluating, and managing mass spectrometry data from environmental samples
developing and maintaining data analysis workflows and lab management tools with in-house and commercial software
collaborating with the institution's business and scientific IT support staff
Successful candidates should have
degree (MSc or PhD) in analytical chemistry, environmental sciences, or equivalent
extensive hands-on experience in mass spectrometry data acquisition for complex samples
programming skills for data processing, data management, and database development and curation (e.g., R / Shiny, Python, web user interfaces, SQL)
know-how of IT infrastructure and its maintenance (e.g., Docker, Git, PowerShell, Linux) would be a desirable added skill
Candidates need to be fluent in written and spoken English, while knowledge in German would be an asset. The position further requires a high level of organization, time management, teamwork, and communication skills.
