Our scientists and engineers support industries ranging from semiconductors and advanced electronics to pharmaceuticals, medical devices, energy systems, and consumer products. Using advanced techniques in analytical chemistry, microscopy, surface analysis, and engineering sciences, we help clients solve complex challenges across the product lifecycle.

What sets EAG apart isn’t just our world‑class instrumentation—it’s our people. We’re problem solvers, collaborators, and lifelong learners who value precision, curiosity, and impact. Here, your work directly influences the safety, reliability, and performance of products used around the globe.

Join EAG Laboratories as a Scientist specializing in LC-MS analysis. Candidates must reside within a reasonable commuting distance of our Sunnyvale, California laboratory to be considered for this position.

In this role, you will perform hands‑on materials characterization, interpret and report high‑quality analytical data, and work directly with clients to support real‑world technical investigations. You will discuss LCMS data and experimental design with clients, connecting analytical methods and results to broader materials and product development challenges, supported by a strong foundation in organic chemistry, analytical chemistry and specifically chromatography.

Our clients include leading technology companies, consumer product manufacturers, biotech companies and aerospace suppliers working in the early phases of product development. Scientists in our Materials Characterization group operate advanced analytical instrumentation, including FTIR, Raman, GCMS and LCMS, and collaborate closely with peers to understand problems, define solutions, develop analytical approaches, and execute high‑impact analyses.

We are particularly interested in people with extensive (multi-year) hands‑on experience with:
LC-MS (Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry). Supplemental skills and hands‑on experience with GC-MS (Gas Chromatography - Mass Spectrometry) and/or GPC (Gel Permeation Chromatography) are also highly desired.

We are looking for scientists who are very comfortable with all stages of the analytical process: experimental design, preparing samples, optimizing analysis conditions, acquiring data, interpreting chromatograms and mas spectra, writing reports and showing true insight into the meaning of the data acquired. This position requires a solid technical foundation in organic and analytical chemistry.

A typical day in the Organic team will consist of multiple activities and interactions, including:

• Writing reports and processing previously acquired data.
• Planning upcoming analyses.
• Setting up the instruments and acquiring new data.

In parallel with that, you may also have other activities:

• Internal group meetings to plan overall use of the instruments to meet client deadlines.
• Requests from customers to discuss prior reports or they may have questions about future analyses.
• Meetings with the EAG commercial team (which may…
