The Center for Natural Resources (CNR) at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (cnr.njit.edu) invites applications for a postdoc position in the area of modeling water flow in rivers and estuaries as subjected to rain and coastal flooding. We are seeking distinct technical excellence to bridge the gap between theoretical hydrology and applied engineering solutions for complex urban flood scenarios.
As coastal and pluvial flood risks intensify, the need for precise, reliable, and robust hydraulic and hydrologic simulations is critical. This role focuses on the rigorous application of industry-standard models to generate actionable data for municipal resilience. You will be responsible for the development of operational models that protect critical infrastructure and communities.

This role focuses on the rigorous application of industry-standard models to generate actionable data for municipal resilience. You will be responsible for the development of operational models that protect critical infrastructure and communities.
Key Responsibilities
- Advanced Modeling: execute high-precision Hydrologic and Hydraulic Modeling simulations for urban flood analysis, focusing on pluvial and fluvial interactions.
- Operational Excellence: Develop and run transient condition simulations using HEC-RAS and similar platforms, incorporating design storms and projected rainfall events.
- Data Integrity: Process complex spatial-temporal datasets and validate model outputs against historical records to ensure absolute reliability of simulation results.
- Mentorship & Dissemination: Mentor graduate students and translate technical findings into high-quality publications for top-tier journals.
- Ph.D. in Hydrology, Hydraulics, Civil Engineering, or a related discipline.
- Demonstrated mastery of established H&H models (HEC-RAS, HEC-HMS, SWMM).
- A "reliability-first" mindset: The ability to produce consistent, defensible model results.
- Strong foundation in hydrology hydraulics.
- A very competitive salary package.
- The opportunity to work at a premier R1 research institution located in Newark NJ, just 20 minutes from downtown New York City.
- A collaborative environment involving interaction with scientists and engineers across diverse fields.
