Global Talent Recruitment for Suzhou Lab

Suzhou Laboratory is dedicated to becoming a global leader in materials science research and fostering a diverse, innovative, and collaborative research environment.

Explore the Future of Characterization with Our Wonderful Team!

With the mission of supporting the laboratory’s key R&D initiatives and advancing materials science, the Centre for Materials Analysis and Instrumentation addresses the development needs of strategic materials. By focusing on full-lifecycle characterization and key technologies across atomic, micro-nano, and macro scales, we are committed to becoming a premier, integrated, and global one-stop platform in the field of materials characterization.

Based on the demand for advanced material characterization methods, a multi-source characterization system using probes including photons, neutrons, ions, and protons is established, aiming to form a set of tools for studying materials from atomic-level structures to functional properties and achieve in-situ, multi-source, and cross-scale characterization capabilities.

We are seeking talent in the following cutting-edge fields:

Advanced Characterization Methodology (imaging and diffraction, AI-driven data & image processing, spectroscopy, service performance evaluation, etc.).
