N2 Applied seeks to create within Norway, a talent gravity. An attractive place for those who wish to be part of a company with a strong environmental mission: The circular economy with lower carbon emissions and reduced impact on nature/biodiversity.

What we are looking for

We are now expanding our R&D department and looking for engineers or researchers who wants to join us on our environmental mission. The team you will be a part of is key in developing novel plasma technology aimed at the production of reactive nitrogen for multiple applications. Your work will directly influence a process that dramatically improves the resource efficiency, sustainability and security of global food production.

We are looking for dedicated and innovative engineers with some relevant experience or recently graduated from an MSc or PhD degree. You have knowledge of, or experience with, one or more of the disciplines below:

Electromagnetism and thermodynamics
Reaction mechanics and kinetics
Electric and magnetic fields and their transfer of energy to air and plasma
High-temperature reactor design and high temperature catalyst features
Plasma physics/chemistry and plasma technology

We want unorthodox ideas developed through a process of tinkering or trying it out. Curiosity and experimentation sits at the heart of what we do. You will work with colleagues at our test centre and while we do publish in various fields, our focus is on getting our ideas realised and industrialised. We also seek out and collaborate with an international network, both academic and commercial in plasma technology.

Main tasks

Develop real-world solutions around energizing and containing unique air plasmas
Applying advanced simulations as well as statistical tools for diagnostics and problem-solving
Investigate and understand new plasma generator concepts that have the potential to be fabricated on an industrial scale, that can improve operational efficiency yet be robust enough to operate on farms around the globe
Transfer knowledge from industry and universities to N2 Applied and ensure practical application of these in the furtherance of our mission

What we offer

An opportunity to contribute to a process that will fundamentally improve today’s food production
To work with a highly skilled and adaptable team in a collaborative environment

Relevant candidates will be contacted continuously. Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions about this opportunity.

Om arbeidsgiveren

N2 Applied is a Norwegian technology company in a pre-commercial phase that aims to fundamentally improve global food production by increasing yield and reducing emissions. The company has developed a patented technology that enables farmers to cut emissions and produce their own fertiliser locally, using only liquid organic waste, such as livestock slurry or digestate, air and electricity. N2’s scalable process enables fertiliser production to be re-distributed to the end-user, the farmer cutting long and expensive value chains, and reducing the need for chemical fertiliser production based on fossil gas or coal.

N2 Applied has an international team with expertise within agriculture, science, engineering, commercials and sustainability. The company has its head office in Oslo/Asker and a test centre outside of Kongsberg in Svene (Norway), and branches in Wageningen (Netherlands) and York/Edinburgh (UK). Currently the company has installed N2 machines in Scandinavia, UK and the Netherlands.
