Senior Master Technician Prototyping

The objective is to be focused on turning ideas into physical objects, solving technical challenges, and integrating them into a functional device. It is a fundamental piece to validate the theoretical work that other researchers/engineers are developing on a laboratory scale.
- Exhibit a development engineering profile who is able to effectively collaborate with the other research groups of CIIAE to develop prototypes. The work will be focused on energy storage systems such as electrochemical and thermal batteries, hydrogen storage, electrolyzers, etc.
- Carry out low-noise electrical, thermal, and/or optical measurements of different phenomena.
- Develop algorithms for data acquisition using LabVIEW which can assist in testing prototypes by performing measurements of pressure, temperature, etc.
- Experience with data analysis software such as MATLAB or Python.
- Collaborate closely with CIIAE colleagues. As well as with universities, research institutes, and companies at a national and international level.
- Occasional support in the supervision and tutoring students of degree programmes.
- Write work procedures.
