Ideally positioned at the heart of Europe, 1 hour away from Paris, 30 min from Brussels and 1h30 from London, IMT Nord Europe has strong ambitions to become a main actor of the current industrial, digital and environmental transitions, by combining education and research on engineering and digital technologies.Located on two main campuses dedicated to research and education in Douai and Lille, IMT Nord Europe offers research facilities of almost 20,000m² in the following areas :– Digital Systems– Energy and Environment– Materials and ProcessesFor more details, visit the School’s website : www.imt-nord-europe.frThe position is to be filled within the Energy and Environment Teaching, Research, and Innovation Center (CERI EE). In addition to doctoral and postdoctoral researchers, this center includes 30 teacher-researchers, 12 engineers and technicians, and 2 administrative assistants. It is currently organized into two research domains: Atmospheric Sciences and Energy Efficiency of Components, Systems and Processes. CERI EE also has an instrumental technical center and several national and international centers of expertise.IMT Nord Europe wishes to strengthen the skills of CERI EE, within the Energy, Fluids and Transfers team.The candidate will join this research team, which focuses on intensifying transfer phenomena in thermo-fluidic components at various scales. The targeted applications are in the fields of process engineering and energetics, especially for society decarbonization purposes. Experimental and numerical approaches are concurrently employed to improve energy efficiency at the component, energy system, or process scale. This generally requires enhancing performance by means of flow control, use of rheological behavior of complex fluids, surface structuring, and, if applicable, transfers in solid parts.ACTIVITIES :Under the authority of the Director of the Energy and Environment CERI (Teaching, Research, and Innovation Center), the position holder will actively participate in both teaching activities and the development of research and technology transfer projects within the Energy, Fluids and Transfers team.Teaching Activities :The position holder must have expertise in the fields of Energy, Thermal and Process Engineering, both theoretical and practical, which will enable him/her to be involved at various levels in the teaching process.Specifically, he/she will:

• Participate in teaching activities (lectures, tutorials/laboratories, engineering projects) for engineering and/or specialized master’s programs in his/her field of expertise, with some courses possibly being taught in English,
• Contribute to the implementation of pedagogical innovations,
• Engage in educational supervision activities (projects, entrance examination, tutoring),
• Participate, by assisting the training program coordinators, in the design and implementation of courses (engineering programs, masters, specialized masters, professional training, etc.).

Research and Technology Transfer Activities :The main mission of the position holder is to undertake developments related to the research team’s activities. Specifically, he/she will:

• Initiate and conduct research projects and co-supervise PhD students in the field of energy engineering, global decarbonization and integration of new renewables energies (including solar thermal energy) through the development and implementation of optimized and sustainable energy systems and processes, which can integrate network and energy storage issues.
• Communicate on his/her research through scientific publications, patents and presentations.
• Develop research and technology transfer actions in collaboration with private and/or academic partners.
• Promote and develop the team’s themes, the Center, and the Institut Mines Télécom in general.
• Participate in regional and/or international group activities and organize scientific events.
• Aim to prepare a Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches (Habilitation to Supervise Research).

REQUIRED PROFILE :The candidate must have recognized scientific and technical skills to successfully carry out the aforementioned missions.He/she has demonstrated advanced skills in numerical modeling or experimental analysis of complex energy systems or processes, with the goal of optimizing their dynamic performances. It is strongly desired that he/she masters the use or development of dynamic systems modeling softwares (like DYMOLA, TRNSYS or ASPEN). Experience in the development of innovative solutions in the fields of the production and the use of sustainable and carbon-free energy for industrial and environmental transitions will be appreciated.This job position would be suitable for candidates interested in teaching and research with partners, holding a PhD degree in the fields of Energy Sciences, Thermodynamics or Process Engineering. Postdoctoral experience and project management experience will be greatly appreciated.Skills
