  • Publication & Communication – Prepare manuscripts, presentations, and reports; publish original research in peer-reviewed journals.
  • Collaboration – Work closely with Mayo Clinic scientists, external research organizations, and industry partners. Serve as a scientific lead or co-lead on Well Living Lab (WLL) projects.
  • Integration & Innovation – Align WLL research with broader health and building science platforms; stay current on literature and emerging trends.
  • Team Engagement – Collaborate daily with multidisciplinary researchers, technology and operations staff, and academic/industry partners.

You would be a great fit if:

  • Familiarity with LabVIEW, MATLAB, or Python for instrument control and data analysis.
  • Ability to interpret and apply building engineering standards (ASHRAE, ASTM, ISO, LEED, WELL).
  • Strong professional network and commitment to staying current on trends in building science, indoor environmental quality, and human-centered design.
Note: This position requires the ability to access U.S. military installations. As a result, employment is contingent upon meeting all applicable federal eligibility requirements, including U.S. citizenship.
