## About the role

Develop and execute reactive transport models to predict fluid chemistry evolution during reservoir circulation, injection, production, and thermal recovery. Apply thermodynamic equilibrium, aqueous speciation, mineral dissolution and precipitation kinetics, and temperature-dependent reaction rates to evaluate water–rock interactions. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

## What they're looking for

- M.S. or Ph.D. in Geochemistry, Chemical Engineering, Hydrogeology, Earth Sciences, or a related field
- Demonstrated 5-10 years experience developing reactive transport models from scratch using TOUGHREACT, Geochemist’s Workbench, or comparable professional-grade software
- Strong understanding of aqueous thermodynamics, chemical speciation, mineral saturation, equilibrium reactions, and kinetic mineral dissolution and precipitation
- Demonstrated expertise in modeling water–rock interactions in geological formations
- Experience incorporating real-world mineralogical and aqueous geochemical data into models and calibrating predictions against observed fluid chemistry
- Strong analytical skills in numerical modeling, model validation, sensitivity analysis, and uncertainty assessment
