Research Scientist - Atmospheric Composition and Chemical Processes

The Cooperative Institute for Research in Environmental Sciences (CIRES) is seeking to hire a highly motivated Research Scientist through the University of Colorado to join the Atmospheric Composition and Chemical Processes (ACCP) group of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Chemical Sciences Laboratory (CSL) in Boulder, Colorado. This scientist will conduct research to understand the chemistry and composition of the atmosphere using custom-built instruments to measure trace gasses in-situ on research aircraft. Specific responsibilities of this position will be determined by interests and skills of the selected candidate and the needs of the ACCP group in 2026 and 2027, but it is anticipated that the candidate will be a key member of the team using laser-induced fluorescence and/or chemical ionization mass spectrometry to study reactive chemistry relevant to climate and stratospheric ozone processes during the SABRE project in 2026.
