IGii - Research & Development

iGii is always looking for talented R&D professionals at Senior and Principal level to join our rapidly expanding team. If you're passionate about advanced nanotechnology and want to contribute to breakthrough innovations at the forefront of science and engineering, we want to hear from you.

This is an excellent opportunity to work in a high-growth environment with a fast-paced, collaborative culture where curiosity, tenacity and genuine teamwork matter.

You will help accelerate the development of our world leading Gii technology, our proprietary 3D porous pure carbon material, by contributing to cutting-edge research, designing experiments, advancing new applications, and collaborating across multidisciplinary teams to solve complex scientific challenges. This may include:

• Developing and optimising electrochemical sensors and next generation diagnostic solutions
• Exploring Gii integration in applications such as heavy metal sensing, flexible electronics, supercapacitors, or IoT platforms
• Designing and executing experiments that deepen our understanding of Gii and expand its application landscape
• Working closely with colleagues across science, engineering, technical and product teams to translate research into real world solutions
• Bringing creativity, rigour and a solutions focused mindset to every stage of development.

We’re looking for individuals with hands on experience in product development, scientists and engineers who are excited by solving hard problems in the laboratory, exploring new ideas and advancing next generation materials and devices.

You may come from disciplines such as chemistry, materials science, electrochemistry, electrical engineering, biomedical engineering or a related field. A relevant degree as well as industry experience is highly valuable, and we love to see evidence of a growth mindset, curiosity and a commitment to continuous learning.

You’ll bring enthusiasm for working in a fast moving R&D environment, collaborating with diverse specialists, and contributing to innovations that sit at the cutting edge of science and technology.

We are particularly keen to hear from scientists with academic or industrial experience in electrochemical biosensor development, heavy-metal sensing for environmental applications, IoT solutions in healthcare or energy storage, energy harvesting technologies for low power devices, flexible PCBs or electronics, or bioassay reagents development.

In addition to a competitive salary and 33 days of annual leave (including statutory holidays) we offer a comprehensive benefits package designed to support your wellbeing and professional growth. This includes:

• Private medical insurance
• Group life insurance
• Income protection
• Access to mental wellbeing resources and support, including up to six coaching or counselling sessions per year through our wellbeing partner, Oliva
• Training and development opportunities to help grow your career
• Freedom to arrange your schedule around our core working hours, designed to help you perform at your best.

We take great pride in being a social and collaborative organisation. We meet regularly as a Company and as teams, sharing ideas over breakfast or lunch, celebrating achievements, and recognising milestones at a team and individual level.

We welcome applicants from all backgrounds and communities, and where possible will offer visa sponsorship and relocation assistance.

We are based in Stirling in central Scotland, a city with rich historical significance. As well as being historic, Stirling is in a great position for quick access to Edinburgh and Glasgow by public transport. It also has easy to access to the Highlands and rural Scotland.
