TEM Specialist

Play a key role in the development and qualification of advanced materials for newcleo’s Lead Fast Reactor (LFR) by delivering high-level microstructural and nanoscale characterization.

Requirements

• Master’s degree in Materials Science, Physics, Nuclear Engineering or a closely related discipline
• Ph.D. with a strong focus on materials characterization or nuclear materials
• Extensive hands-on experience in TEM/STEM, including high-resolution and aberration-corrected microscopy
• Strong competence in advanced detectors and analytical techniques, in particular EELS
• Demonstrated ability to interpret complex microstructural and nanoscale phenomena
• Experience with additional characterization techniques (e.g. SEM, XRD, XPS, SIMS, chemical analysis techniques)
• Background in key degradation mechanisms relevant to nuclear systems
• Experience with thermodynamic or materials modelling tools (e.g. Thermo-Calc, JMatPro)
• Applied knowledge of computational materials approaches (e.g. molecular dynamics or related methods)
• Familiarity with nuclear materials standards and codes (e.g. ASME, RCC-MRx, EURO codes, nuclear pressure equipment regulations)
