The group is shared between Empa and the University of Zurich and headed by Prof. Dr. Lorenz Hilty. As the senior research scientist of the group, you will coordinate interdisciplinary projects and develop ICT-based approaches to problems of environmental sustainability. Such problems include assessing, modelling and reducing material and energy flows or supporting users in making sustainability-oriented decisions. You will be in charge of the following tasks: Developing project proposals, managing and executing projects of the group in cooperation with other Empa Labs and projects, in particular in the context of NEST (<a href="http://nest.empa.ch/" target="_blank" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-variant: inherit; line-height: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; -webkit-transition: all, 200ms; transition: all, 200ms; color: rgb(83, 130, 172);">http://nest.empa.ch</a>) and with partners at the University of Zurich.
