Research Scientist III
This position involves designing, building, and automating an established workflow for the experimental screening of organic materials. This role will streamline data acquisition for the development of novel optoelectronic materials. The successful candidate will collaborate with a research team to understand current goals and develop next-generation materials with an emphasis on advanced design, fabrication, and analysis.
Key Responsibilities
- Develop next-generation optoelectronic materials with an emphasis on advanced design, fabrication, and analysis.
- Collaborate with the research team to understand current goals, limitations, and bottlenecks in the wider AR/VR space.
- Build with and develop an understanding of equipment designed for high-throughput experiments.
- Design and automate novel crystal growth, processing, and analysis techniques.
- Communicate results internally and with external partners.
- Assist in the translation of research results to practical application in product development.
Required Qualifications
Education:
PhD or Masters in Physics, Chemistry, Optical Science and Engineering, Electrical Engineering, or a relevant technical field.
Experience:
5-7 years of professional experience. 2+ years of experience in at least one of the following areas: chemistry, materials, organic materials, crystallization, nucleation, solid state analysis, or optoelectronic materials. 2+ years of experience in experimental laboratory work.
Technical
Skills:
Experience programming hardware interfaces (e.g., serial/I2C/SPI communication, DAQ systems, motion control) using Python, LabVIEW, C, or similar languages.
Other:
Must obtain work authorization in the country of employment at the time of hire and maintain ongoing work authorization during employment.
Preferred Qualifications
- Proven track record of achieving significant results, such as grants, fellowships, patents, or first-authored publications.
- Experience with solid-state analysis: e.g., diffuse reflectance, XRD, spectroscopy, DSC, optical microscopy.
- Experience with crystallographic software (e.g., CCDC suite, BGMN, Profex, Olex2).
- Experience with HPLC, LC-MS, UV/Vis and/or GC.
- Experience working and communicating cross-functionally in a team environment.
- Experience with crystal growth and related concepts (e.g., supersaturation, nucleation).
