OFFENE STELLEN

PhD position in the field of biotechnology, chemical or process engineering, or mathematics

Development of a Cell Cycle Model for Optimized Bioprocessing in Large Scale

We are seeking research scientists with diploma/master’s degree in the field of biotechnology, chemical or process engineering, or mathematics on a part-time basis (30h/week), limited to 42 months, to strengthen our team at the Vienna site, starting from July 2026.

For our upcoming project “DeSimplify” in the context of creating the configurable process modelling architecture that acknowledges the complexity of chemical production systems, we are seeking a skilled and motivated person to join our team to develop a microbial cell cycle model. You will be part of a multidisciplinary team to integrate the developed model onto simulated particles representing individual cells inside the turbulent mixing pattern of a bioreactor.

Reference number: 025

Application: until 26 April, 2026

We are looking forward to receiving your application (cover letter, CV, academic certificates, employment references), including the reference number of this job posting, to the following email address: personal@chasecenter.at

Master Thesis in Chemistry and Chemical Technology

Modeling the Depolymerization of Polyhydroxyalkanoates

in Melt Hydrolysis

We are seeking skilled and motivated young scientists with a finished BSc degree in the field of Chemistry, Physics, Polymer- or Process Engineering for pursuing their diploma/master thesis on a part-time basis (10 to 20h/week), limited to 12 months, to strengthen our team at the headquarters in Linz with immediate entry.

This master thesis explores the kinetics of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHA) depolymerization during melt hydrolysis, with a focus on building upon and refining existing simulation-assisted kinetic models. By leveraging detailed data on depolymerization products, this project aims to enhance the predictive accuracy of simulation assisted kinetics model, particularly for low molecular weight and water-soluble depolymerization products. Moreover, the nuances of the type of polyhydroxyalkanoates on the depolymerization outcome in conjunction with depolymerization kinetics will underpin the research of bio polyester recycling.

Reference number: 021

Application: until 30 June 2026
