CMCC: Senior Postdoctoral Researcher Environmental and Energy Systems Engineering
We are seeking a highly skilled and motivated Senior Postdoctoral Researcher to join our team in the field of water and energy systems analysis, with a strong emphasis on mathematical modeling, optimization, and decision-making under uncertainty. The successful candidate will focus on developing and applying advanced multi-scale water and energy system models to explore the implications of global climate policies on infrastructure development in the Global South.
In addition, the role will emphasize robust decision-making techniques to address uncertainty in future scenarios. The candidate will analyze the impact of uncertain variables, such as climate variability, policy shifts, and socio-economic and technological changes, on water and energy infrastructure planning. By integrating uncertainty analysis into optimization frameworks, the researcher will develop strategies that ensure resilient and adaptive system designs, capable of withstanding a range of future challenges.
The ideal candidate will bring expertise in addressing challenges at the intersection of global climate policies, resource management, and socio-economic dynamics, demonstrating an ability to deliver impactful research that informs policy and engineering decisions.
This research aims to provide actionable insights for policymakers, guiding sustainable infrastructure development in dynamic and uncertain environments.
