Senior Scientist – Formulation and Composites

El SEGUNDO, CA | FULL-TIME Onsite

Due to the nature of the work, only US Persons may be considered

Defense, aerospace and other high-performance applications demand new material solutions stronger, lighter, more resilient tested and delivered faster than traditionally available. Cambium is disrupting advanced materials development, from AI-driven molecular design to agile domestic manufacturing. Whether enabling hypersonic flight or protecting critical systems, our solutions push the limits of what’s possible. Cambium solves mission-critical problems in defense and industry. Our team of world-class scientists and engineers was purposely built to take on those challenges. Come join us and revolutionize advanced materials for defense, aerospace, and beyond.

THE ROLE

Cambium is seeking a Senior Scientist to join our polymer/composite materials engineering team. In this role, you will guide the design, formulation, and manufacturability of polymer resins, with a focus on high-temperature thermosets, from the benchtop to commercialization.

This is a hands-on position where you will work closely with leadership, scientists/engineers, technicians, and cross-functional teams to develop new materials, assist with laboratory operations and technology transfer, and contribute to process optimization efforts.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Support senior leadership in driving new product development through guiding the design, development, and execution of formulating high performance resins into various product forms (e.g. film adhesives, composites, coatings, foams)
Mentor and work with junior scientists and technicians to advance products/product forms, focusing on manufacturability. This is a hands-on role and you will be expected to spend considerable time in the laboratory.
Work collaboratively with synthetic chemists and engineers to plan experiments, including DoEs, to evaluate new additives and develop new formulations.
Analyze data and document conclusions in reports and presentations.
Provide regular progress reports to senior leadership.
Communicate clearly and concisely key concepts, development status, performance outcomes, and lessons learned to your coworkers, investors, and collaborators.
Prioritize safety and OSHA, EPA, and local health and safety requirements.
Create and contribute to the product demonstration and engineering teams in a manner consistent with Cambium’s mission and values and the growth of Cambium’s business

KEY REQUIREMENTS

Ph.D. in a relevant technology field (i.e., Chemistry, Polymer Chemistry, Materials Science, Physics, Aerospace Engineering, etc.) or equivalent industrial experience
At least 3-5 years of industrial experience in the development of advanced materials and polymers for use in high-performance applications
Advanced knowledge of manufacturing and/or formulating polymer composites and/or adhesives
Willingness to learn and contribute in a hands-on laboratory environment
Ability to work both independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced environment
Strong written and verbal communication skills
Due to the nature of the work, U.S. citizenship is required

SALARY: $135,000 – $166,000 annually

BENEFITS: Cambium offers a highly competitive compensation and benefits plan. This includes excellent medical/dental/vision benefits, and a matching 401(k) plan, professional development reimbursement, and an opportunity for equity for most full-time positions.

As a condition of employment, the candidate may need to successfully complete a medical evaluation and obtain clearance to wear respiratory personal protective equipment (PPE) as required by OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134.
