Geoscience Intern
About Us
Eden is pioneering sustainable natural resource recovery by using electricity to enhance subsurface permeability. Our Electrical Reservoir Stimulation technology offers a precise, water-efficient alternative to traditional hydraulic fracturing, reducing environmental risks while maximizing resource extraction.
Backed by leading public and private institutions, we have raised ~$24M, including $14M in dilutive capital from industry leaders like Anglo American and Helmerich & Payne, along with climate-focused investors like Grantham Foundation. An additional $10M in non-dilutive funding has been secured, primarily through four DOE ARPA-E grants supporting our R&D in frontier industries.
Headquartered in Somerville, MA, with an office in Houston, TX, Eden's team of 20 experts specializes in geophysics, geochemistry, high-voltage engineering, and subsurface tool design. We are actively demonstrating our next-generation permeability enhancement technology across diverse geologies worldwide, collaborating with industry leaders in geothermal energy, geologic hydrogen, carbon storage, and mining to redefine resource recovery for a carbon-neutral future.
Looking ahead, we are preparing for surface and subsurface field tests in early-to-mid 2025, supported by our supportive technical partners.
About the Job
We are looking for a motivated and creative Geoscientist to help us to develop new technologies to stimulate geological reservoirs for different market applications including geothermal, mining, CO2 sequestration, geologic hydrogen, and oil & gas. Come and work with us if you are interested in one (or more) of the following:
Tasks:
● Geomechanical testing including core flooding investigations, reactive transport, and proppant and rock strength/fracturing tests using High-Pressure High-Temperature (HPHT) Triaxial cells
● Laboratory and field investigations on geochemistry processes related to CO2 sequestration, geological H2, and mineral extraction - specially, at HPHT (supercritical) conditions
● Development of new experimental apparatuses and testing protocols
● Fundamental and advanced research to support field investigations, and to test and develop new technologies before their deployment in the field
Requirements
Minimum Qualifications:
● MS/PhD in Civil/Geotechnical/Geological/Geochemistry/Geoscience or related field
Preferred Qualifications:
● 2+ years of laboratory experience
● Experience with HPHT triaxial cells conducting geo-mechanical tests, and/or reactive transport, core flooding, or permeability investigations
● Experience with geochemical-, and/or reactive transport experiments and numerical modeling
● Experience in electro-chemistry
● Microfluidics and geochemical skills is a bonus
● Familiarity with equipment design, fabrication, and troubleshooting. Expertise with CAD/CAM is highly desirable
● Experience with data acquisition and control systems (hardware and software). Mechatronics is a plus
● Good/Advanced programming skills in Matlab/Python. LabView and C++ are a bonus
● Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities with the ability to make technically and economically sound recommendations with incomplete information
● Demonstrated ability to collaborate with interdisciplinary teams
