    Job Description

POSTDOCTORAL FELLOW-TRANSPORTATION, MIT Climate & Sustainability Consortium (MCSC) Impact Fellowship Program, to assume a position for an individual with transportation expertise who wants to transcend academia and industry and apply their expertise to near-term change for a more sustainable future. MCSC Impact Fellows work with MIT researchers and consortium industry members in collaboration with external organizations and communities to implement solutions needed for global economic transformation to address the global climate change and sustainability crisis. Throughout the program, fellows prepare for leadership positions within the sustainability domain in a wide range of contexts and prepare to drive research that advances breakthrough scalable solutions towards accelerated change. Freight transportation modes including aviation, long-haul trucking, and maritime shipping are tough to decarbonize, in part because electrification is much more difficult than it is for passenger vehicles. The impact fellow will evaluate a range of decarbonization strategies that consider technology, infrastructure, and behavior change.

Job Requirements

REQUIRED: Ph.D. in engineering, computer science, data science, systems, or other field with a transportation focus; familiarity with at least three of the following--alternative energy carriers for freight transportation fleets, logistics networks, collaborative code development, developing interactive software tools, and/or lifecycle cost and emissions analysis; experience with proposal writing and group management and coordination; and strong listening and written and verbal communication skills. Must be highly collaborative and able to work in a team-oriented environment with experts from diverse backgrounds as transportation is a broad topic with many interconnected sub-topics (e.g., vehicles, fuels, electrification, systems, cost, environmental impact, etc.). Job #23763Candidates should showcase their experience traversing disciplines during problem-solving in their application materials. 2/21/24
