hela Sverige About Us
At MG, we are redefining the engineering landscape with a strong commitment to environmental responsibility and social impact. While our core expertise lies in solar energy, we're expanding rapidly across Technology, Education, and Lifesciences, including agriculture, geophysics, bioeconomy and bioenergy with carbon capture, storage, and utilization (CCUS).
We specialize in developing innovative concepts, writing successful grant proposals, and managing impactful projects in collaboration with a global network of academic and industry partners. Join us and become part of a growing team driving sustainable change.
About the Role
We are looking for a highly qualified Researcher to join our business development team. This team aims the development and assessment of effective technologies for the carbon capture, storage and utilization (CCUS) and perform technoeconomic (TEA) and life cycle assessments (LCA). In this role, you will lead inclusive processes that bring together communities, researchers, and businesses to explore and co-develop future-oriented solutions. Your work will span across Sustainability, circular economy, and climate transition, using participatory approaches to generate insight, foster dialogue, and turn shared ideas into actionable innovations.
Key Responsibilities
Support the synthetic fuels research line in the scope of CCUS, involving, but not limited to the development of new technologies and process optimization.
Conduct research on point-source carbon capture and direct air capture (DAC), focusing on implementation, demonstration, and valorization pathways for different fuels.
Design and optimize chemical processes for the production of sustainable fuels and other CO2-based products.
Perform process simulations of bioeconomy-related processes for CCUS applications.
Conduct life cycle assessments (LCA) and techno-economic assessments (TEA) for industrial and R&D projects, providing actionable insights to reduce environmental impacts.
