Job Summary

This role is a unique opportunity for a scientist to pursue a doctoral degree while working on a funded research project focused on the dry-technical processing of cereals as food raw materials. The successful candidate will coordinate and execute inter-group investigations, manage work packages, and collaborate closely with external project partners, including a technical university and a brewery. Key responsibilities involve planning and conducting chemical and physical analyses, characterizing the techno-functional properties of milled products and derived foods, and documenting research data. The position requires a Master’s degree in Food Technology, Chemistry, or a related field, along with experience in assessing cereal-based food raw materials and applying instrumental analytical methods, particularly in protein analytics. This fixed-term, part-time position (65% FTE) offers a supportive environment at the Max Rubner Institute in Detmold, geared towards scientific qualification and publication.
