Luleå, Norrbotten, Sweden Luleå University of Technology Full time

Luleå University of Technology is a leading institution in research and innovation, with a strong focus on sustainable development. Our research group in Biochemical Process Engineering is responsible for a versatile laboratory with key competencies for bio-based products and processes. We are currently seeking a highly motivated PhD researcher to join our team and contribute to the development of sustainable technologies.

The successful candidate will work on enzyme discovery, characterization, and improvement for application in Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage processes. This includes the development of ultra-stable promoters to increase CO2 capturing rates and removal efficiency of carbonate solutions.

We aim to create a fossil-free society by developing integrated processes that combine biotechnology and chemistry. Our research subject focuses on using bio-based raw materials, such as forest residues, and developing processes for biorefineries.

We are looking for a highly motivated and skilled individual with a strong interest in research and development. You must have excellent communication and teamwork skills, as well as the ability to work independently. A master's degree in chemical engineering, industrial biotechnology, enzymology, or a relevant field is required.

Beyond your academic qualifications, we value hands-on experience in enzyme mining from genomes and/or metagenomic databases, enzyme discovery, enzyme improvement (directed evolution, rational design), and/or use of advanced bioinformatics tools. Previous experience with laboratory equipment and relevant practical experience, such as upstream and downstream enzyme production and enzyme assays, are also considered advantageous.
