Minimum Qualifications:

Ph.D. degree in Materials Science and Engineering, Physics, Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, or closely related fields.

Strong background in solid-state density-functional theory computations (VASP, QE).

Strong computer skills: Linux, Python, etc.

Experience performing ab initio simulations on high-performance computing environments.

Experience with the development of novel methods for modeling the effects of structure and composition on interfacial chemical and electrochemical reactivity.

Good publication record.

Preferred Qualifications: Physical Requirements and/or Unusual Work Hours: Special Message to Applicants:

Dr. David Cereceda is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering at Villanova University. Before joining Villanova, Dr. David Cereceda was a Postdoctoral Fellow with Prof. Lori Graham-Brady at Johns Hopkins University, within the Hopkins Extreme Materials Institute. His research at Hopkins is aimed at understanding the dynamic fragmentation of brittle materials under extreme loading conditions. Dr. David Cereceda received his Ph.D. in Nuclear Engineering from Polytechnic University of Madrid in 2015, under the guidance of Prof. Jaime Marian and Prof. José Manuel Perlado. His Ph.D. research, performed at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and University of California Los Angeles, was focused on the multiscale modeling of body-centered cubic metals like tungsten from atomistic to engineering scales. His current research focuses on facilitating the discovery, development, and deployment of next generation structural and bio- inspired materials by creating and validating computational models that leverage physics-based and data-driven techniques.
