Job Opportunity

TUM CREATE, a multidisciplinary research platform of the Technical University Munich (TUM) at the Singapore Campus for Research Excellence and Technological Enterprise (CREATE), is seeking a skilled professional.

The Proteins4Singapore program, a collaborative effort between TUM, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), the Singapore Institute of Technology (SIT), and A*STAR's Singapore Institute of Food and Biotechnology Innovation (SIFBI), aims to develop state-of-the-art methods and techniques to ensure a sustainable protein supply for highly urbanized environments.

As part of this project, we are looking for a Research Fellow in Flavor Chemistry (Sensomics Approach) to join our analytical flavor science team. The successful candidate will lead experimental research focused on the identification, quantification, and sensory validation of aroma-active and taste-active compounds in alternative protein products.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Design and execute analytical workflows combining LC-MS, and sensory data to map aroma and taste compound profiles.
  • Conduct sensory analysis of food (e.g., profiling, discrimination tests, and threshold determinations).
  • Develop and validate analytical methods for aroma precursor and flavor compound quantification in raw and processed samples.
  • Collaborate with experts in protein extraction and process engineering to translate analytical findings into product insights.
  • Write scientific manuscripts, contribute to project reports, and present findings at international conferences and stakeholder meetings.

Required Skills and Qualifications:

  • Proven expertise in flavor chemistry, food metabolomics, or analytical chemistry with hands-on experience in LC-MS workflows.
  • Experience with sensory evaluation/sensomics techniques is highly desirable.
  • Strong understanding of aroma compound biosynthesis, Maillard reaction chemistry, or fermentation-derived flavor generation.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English, with the ability to communicate complex analytical results to multidisciplinary teams.
  • Demonstrated ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, international research environment.

Qualification Requirements:

  • Ph.D. in Food Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Flavor Science, or related discipline from a reputable university.
  • Publications or demonstrated expertise in aroma or taste analysis considered a strong asset.

What We Offer:

  • Opportunity to work alongside renowned scientists in a multidisciplinary research environment.
  • Chance to contribute to the development of innovative solutions for sustainable protein supply.
  • Professional growth and development opportunities in a dynamic and international setting.
