Our research team in Billerica, Massachusetts is at the forefront of this innovation. We are seeking a hands-on Research Engineer/chemist in Pigment research to help develop the advanced pigment materials that are fundamental to the performance of our color electrophoretic displays. This role offers the opportunity to work across the full development cycle—from pigment crystallization and finishing through to evaluating pigment performance within electrophoretic display systems—directly contributing to the next generation of E Ink

This position is ideally suited to a practical, laboratory-focused chemist or engineer who enjoys experimental work, developing robust laboratory procedures, operating specialist equipment, solving technical challenges, and translating experimental observations into improved material performance.

The essential duties and responsibilities of this position include, but are not limited to, the following:

• Develop, execute, andoptimizelaboratory procedures forpigmentcrystallization, crystal engineering, finishing, and post-processing.
• Investigate andoptimizecrystallization conditions to control crystal form, crystal habit, particle morphology, and particle size distribution.
• Plan and perform laboratory experiments under the guidance of project scientists.
• Operate,maintain, troubleshoot, and take ownership of laboratory pigment finishing equipment, including mills, filtration systems, washing equipment, dryers, and associated processing equipment.
• Develop andoptimizemilling, filtration, purification, washing, and drying procedures to achieve target particle size, morphology, purity, and process consistency.
• Characterize pigments using particle size analysis, microscopy, spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and other analytical techniques.
• Identify impurities and correlate analytical results with pigment properties, crystallization behavior, and processing conditions.
• Record, analyze, and interpret experimental data to improve laboratory procedures and pigment performance.
• Maintainaccuratelaboratory notebooks, experimental records, and standard operating procedures.
• Ensure laboratory equipment ismaintainedin good working order and that all work is carried out safely andin accordance with environmental, health, safety, and quality requirements.
• Prepare and screen newly developed pigments in electrophoretic display formulations.
• Evaluate pigment performance within the internal phase of electrophoretic display devices.
• Correlate pigment chemistry, crystal structure, particle morphology, particle size distribution, surface properties, and purity with electro-optical performance.
• Use characterization and device performance data to recommend improvements to crystallization, pigment finishing, and processing procedures.
• Collaborate closely withformulationscientists, materials scientists, and device engineers to support the development of next-generation electrophoretic display materials.
