Materials as Machines Lab | Carleton University | Ottawa, Canada

Term: One year

Start date: October 2026

We are seeking a hands-on postdoctoral fellow with a strong mechanical engineering and polymers background to join the Materials as Machines Lab at Carleton University. The fellow will be primarily responsible for leading research and development of twisted-coiled polymer actuators (TCPAs) for a 1-year NSERC Alliance project in close collaboration with Exergy Solutions and the startup Beyond Renewables. The project objective is to develop a TCPA with properties tailored to a novel industry application and to integrate the TCPA into a prototype system using textile manufacturing methods.

This position offers the opportunity to work across academic research, engineering development, and a startup environment. The fellow will conduct experimental research, collaborate with the project partners, and mentor graduate students.

Qualifications:

A completed or nearly completed PhD in mechanical engineering, materials engineering or a closely related field.
Strong knowledge of polymer science and hands-on experience with polymer processing, textile manufacturing, materials characterization, and mechanical testing.
Ability to design experiments, analyze results, and communicate findings clearly.
Interest in translating research into an engineering application.
Strong hands-on aptitude with proven ability to assemble and operate equipment and prototypes; knowledge of electronics is an asset but not required.
Self-motivated and accountable to scheduled commitments.
Curious and creative with a demonstrated ability to convert ideas into practical application.

Experience with smart materials, actuators, or fibre processing is an asset.

To apply, please send a CV, a brief description of your relevant research experience and sample publication, and contact information for two references to Dr. Irina Garces at mmlab@cunet.carleton.ca⁠. Use the subject line “Postdoctoral Fellow – Twisted-Coiled Actuators.” Applications will be reviewed as they are received, and the position will remain open until filled.
