• Advanced Statistical Modeling: Use statistical and machine learning techniques for signal extraction and pattern recognition
• Data Processing Optimization: Improve processes for noise reduction and peak detection.
• Simulation and Predictive Modeling: Create models to simulate scattering data and predict material behaviors
• Trend Analysis: Identify patterns in data to inform material properties and experimental design.
• Results Documentation: Present findings and recommendations clearly to guide material characterization

Requirements:

• Degree in physics, chemistry, material science, statistics, or related field
• Experience in data analysis and algorithm for diffraction and scattering techniques, including SAXS
• Python Prototyping: Advanced Python skills for algorithm development
• Analytical Problem-Solving: Solution-oriented approach to diffraction and SAXS data
• Data Libraries: Familiarity with NumPy, SciPy, and Pandas for data handling
• Machine Learning and AI for pattern recognition and predictive modeling
• Material Science Knowledge (beneficial): Understanding of structural properties influencing diffraction
• Strong Communication: Ability to present complex findings clearly
• Self-driven with a focus on project execution

We offer you:

• A reliable and long-term workplace in our expanding and international high-tech company
