Postdoctoral Researcher (100%)

The Food Innovation and Process Design group at HES-SO Valais led by Prof. Mishra and the Food Structure Engineering group at ETH Zürich led by Prof. Rühs are jointly advancing how non-alcoholic beer and wine can be made without dealcoholization using non-Saccharomyces yeast. The successful candidate will join an interdisciplinary research team developing novel fermentation technologies for the sustainable production of non-alcoholic beer and wine. The project combines yeast biotechnology and biochemistry, bioprocess development, and industrial scale-up to translate laboratory innovations into industrial practice.

Your mission

  • Conduct applied research on the metabolism and physiology of non-Saccharomyces yeasts in beer and wine, with particular emphasis on respiratory metabolism and non-alcoholic fermentations.
  • Investigate the biochemistry of respiratory metabolism in yeasts and its influence on wine and beer organoleptic quality.
  • Develop, optimize and scale biotechnological fermentation processes from laboratory to pilot and industrial scale.
  • Collaborate with industrial partners from the brewing, wine and biotechnology sectors to translate research into industrial applications.

Your profile

  • PhD in (Food)-Biotechnology, Bioprocess Engineering, or on the production of non-alcoholic wine and beer with a focus on non-Saccharomyces yeast.
  • Experience in aerobic and anaerobic fermentation, bioprocess development, process scale-up and fermentation engineering.
  • You combine a scientific track record with an entrepreneurial mindset, and you can easily translate science into application.
  • You can operate bioreactors from the 1L to the 1000L scale and can translate the biochemistry of a single cell to industrial fermentation.
  • Fluent in English, B2 in either French or German.

Votre mission

  • Mener des activités de recherche appliquée sur le métabolisme et la physiologie des levures non-Saccharomyces dans les procédés de fermentation de la bière et du vin, avec un accent particulier sur le métabolisme respiratoire et les fermentations sans alcool.
  • Etudier les mécanismes biochimiques du métabolisme respiratoire des levures ainsi que leur influence sur les propriétés organoleptiques du vin et de la bière.
  • Développer, optimiser et mettre à l-échelle des procédés biotechnologiques de fermentation, du laboratoire jusqu-aux échelles pilote et industrielle.
  • Collaborer avec des partenaires industriels des secteurs brassicole, œnologique et biotechnologique afin de favoriser le transfert des résultats de la recherche vers des applications industrielles concrètes.

Votre profil

  • Doctorat en biotechnologie (alimentaire), en ingénierie des bioprocédés ou dans une discipline apparentée, avec une spécialisation dans la production de vins et de bières sans alcool à l-aide de levures non-Saccharomyces.
  • Expérience avérée en fermentations aérobies et anaérobies, en développement de bioprocédés, en mise à l-échelle et en ingénierie des procédés de fermentation.
  • Solide parcours scientifique allié à un esprit entrepreneurial et à une capacité avérée à transformer les résultats de la recherche en applications concrètes.
  • Expérience de l-exploitation de bioréacteurs de l-échelle laboratoire (1 L) à l-échelle industrielle (1000 L) et capacité à mettre en œuvre des connaissances en biochimie cellulaire pour le développement de procédés de fermentation industrielle.
  • Maîtrise de l-anglais et niveau B2 en français ou en allemand.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
