Postdoc Position: Microbial Polymer Production

Vor 2 Tagen


Wien, Österreich ACIB - Austrian Centre of Industrial ... Vollzeit

**That’s the project**:
Polymers are an integral part of our daily life and industry, but feedstock origin and the negative environmental impact of plastic polymers raise major concerns and have boosted the search for sustainable solutions. Microorganisms show enormous potential for the production of bio-based polymers from renewable sources or waste streams. However, only little is known about the underlying principle triggering **microbial polymer production**, such as the involved proteins and cultivation conditions. In this project we will identify key proteins required to produce specific polymers, we will use this information to genetically engineer microorganisms, and will then characterize the engineered polymer-producing strains.

**That could be your future**:
Join our team at a reputable, nationally and internationally well-connected research centre at the forefront of biotechnological innovation. You are working in an enjoyable work climate, have numerous possibilities for further education and personal development. You are part of a challenging and helpful work environment full of team spirit and enthusiasm for your job. You expand your expertise and **bridge your science to industry**.

We offer you **fully flexible working hours** and a package of voluntary social benefits (e.g. meal vouchers or tickets for public transport) are also part of our modern corporate culture. **And not to forget**: You make your research visible and broaden your network

**That’s important to us**:

- Hands-on experience in genetic engineering of microorganisms
- Interest in molecular biology and biochemistry
- Experience in instrumental analytics (HPLC, GC, FACS)
- Strong self-management skills
- Excellent problem-solving skills
- Collaboration and communication in an interdisciplinary team

**That’s what you should know**:

- The annual gross salary is **EUR 66.532,20**.
- This corresponds to a monthly net amount of EUR 3.053,81 (paid 14 times a year).
- Start**:3rd of February 2025**
