Division Deputy for Engineering Operations - 106158

Division: AP-Physical Sciences

Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory has a unique opportunity for a senior operations leader to serve as the operational anchor for a Division at the center of the Laboratory’s most advanced scientific and engineering efforts, working side-by-side with engineers, scientists, and project leaders at a world leading research institution.

The Division Deputy for Operations reports to the Engineering Division Director and serves as a key partner on all operational and business matters for one of the Laboratory’s most complex and highly matrixed organizations. Our matrixed environment enables us to cultivate multidisciplinary engineering expertise, facilitate the cross pollination of skills, provide training, centralize toolsets and data management, as well as agilely shift resources to support projects and divisions across the Laboratory. The Engineering Division partners with our science divisions on a broad scientific portfolio and projects, such as the Advanced Light Source and ALS Upgrade (ALS-U), Berkeley Lab Laser Accelerator (BELLA) Center, the U.S. Magnet Development Program, and major instrumentation efforts in nuclear and high energy physics like ATLAS, GRETA, DESI, LZ and the DUNE Near Detector. With close to 500 engineers and technical staff, many matrixed across programs and projects, the Division also sustains the engineering infrastructure as well as engineering software and CAD tools for all of LBNL. Finally, engineering maintains a small R&D area funded through strategic funds and grants through collaborations with internal and external partners.

This role provides hands-on leadership across the Division’s business and operational functions, including finance, procurement, property, facilities, communications, and environment, health, and safety (EHS), with responsibility for supervising 4 direct and 11 indirect reports. Serving as the central point of coordination, the Deputy works across teams to ensure that operational needs are met, issues are resolved, and programs have the support required to move forward effectively. The position also advances the Division’s use of data and tools, including dashboards, reporting frameworks, and project management systems, to provide clear visibility into financial performance, workforce planning, and operational execution.

Working in close partnership with the Division Director and leadership team, the Deputy leads strategic operational and planning execution, helping translate Division priorities into actionable plans and ensuring follow-through. The role requires regular engagement with engineers, project teams, and internal stakeholders, as well as negotiation and management of support agreements with major programs. The Deputy also partners with Laboratory operations on facilities, infrastructure, and budget matters to ensure alignment and timely delivery.

This is a highly collaborative, execution-focused role requiring effective communication with stakeholders at all organizational levels. The Deputy for Operations is expected to be a visible and responsive partner across the Division, fostering a culture of accountability, problem-solving, and continuous improvement in support of world-class scientific and engineering research.

[Contrat doctoral] Modelling the impact of rock fractures, alteration, and mineral composition on rock properties in deep geothermal context à Université de Lyon / ENTPE

Tue, 21 Oct 2025 17:53:05 +0200

Context:

The propose study addresses socio-economic and environmental challenges of using soil and subsoil resources, particularly in the context of the energy transition. Nowadays, a key focus is on deep geothermal energy, which relies on the ability of underground rock formations to store and transmit thermal fluids effectively. High-enthalpy geothermal systems depend on the quality of reservoir rocks, which is governed by, for instance, their porosity, fracture structure, permeability, and fluid circulation. All of which are influenced by the rock structure and mineral composition, as well as its possible evolution. This is particularly the case for rock-fluid interaction in porous or fractured rocks, possibly leading to rock damage, alteration, and porosity/mineral variation (e.g. dissolution, precipitation, etc.). For instance, the precipitation of minerals (e.g. clay) tends to reduce hydraulic permeability, affecting fluid circulation and the efficiency of geothermal systems.

Objectives and method:

The main objectives of the research are to:
- Integrate fracture structure and mineral composition into the assessment of hydromechanical rock
properties.
- Model the evolution of mineral content due to alteration processes.
- Predict the impact on reservoir behaviour and geothermal production at larger scales.

To achieve this, the study will develop a theoretical and numerical multiphysical (TH(MC)) model that links microstructural properties to macroscopic rock behaviour. This geomechanics and rock mechanics work will be realised using finite element modelling approaches (e.g. Comsol MultiPhysics).

Profil recherché :
Candidate profile: Candidates can apply for a 3-year PhD scholarship at University of Lyon (ENTPE engineering school, LTDS laboratory, Lyon, France). Applications are welcome from students graduated (Msc.) in the fields of civil, mechanical, materials, and geotechnical engineering, or geosciences. Basic knowledge in mechanics of porous/fractured media, constitutive modelling of geomaterials, multiphysics, and interest for numerical methods in geomechanics is required. The 3-year project will give the applicant opportunities to develop various technical skills (advanced numerical methods, poromechanics, elastoplasticity, damage approach, etc.) and to integrate a dynamic geomechanics network having a large experience in numerical modelling. The successful applicant will use and improve coupled non-linear finite element models, based on experimental data. The ability to communicate orally and write in English is required and international mobility is encouraged.
