[ES_JOBS_NET] Technical position in Ecosystem Physiology at the University of Freiburg

[Nemiah Ladd]

Hello,

We are looking for a technician to join our research group in Ecosystem Physiology at the University of Freiburg, Germany. The position is originally project-funded for 1.5 years, but has the potential to be converted to a permanent contract depending on performance. See full details and application instructions below.

Best wishes,
Nemiah Ladd

The Chair for Ecosystem Physiology at the University of Freiburg is looking for a technician 

Full-time position. Start date: As soon as possible.

The position is to be filled as part of the ERC project VOCO2 "Biochemical link between plant volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions and CO2 metabolism - from sub-molecular to ecosystem scales". 

We are looking for a motivated and technically experienced member for our international team. Responsibility will include:

	1)   Participation in project-specific ecophysiological experiments in the laboratory and in the field

	2)   Measurement of VOC fluxes with a PTR-TOF-MS and isotope lasers in different experiments

	3)   Measurements of stable isotopes (13C, 15N, 18O) of various substrates by IRMS.

	4)   Preparation and analysis of the data obtained

After an induction period, the jobholder should also take over the maintenance and repair of the instruments.

Sound technical experience in PTR-TOF-MS measurements and/or in isotope mass spectrometry is desired. Due to the complex and extensive measurement data, good IT skills and basic knowledge of programming languages ​​(such as Matlab) are desirable. Good knowledge of English is required due to the international project composition. Familiarity with German language is preferable. Candidates should have a university or engineer degree or a comparable qualification.

The university is firmly committed to the goal of a family-friendly university. Severely disabled people are given preferential treatment if they are equally suitable.

The position is project-related for 1.5 years, with the option of later changing to a permanent position. Remuneration is at level E11 of the German civil salary code.

Please apply with a cover letter, CV, and two letters of recommendation and further contact information for professional references. Documents stating the code number 00000941 by 15.03.2020 at the latest. Please send your application in written or electronic form to:
