Are you passionate about collaborating with outstanding scientists and engineers to develop your own skills while contributing to critical challenges?

If so, we are looking for someone like you to join our team at APL.

We are seeking an organic chemist to help develop solutions to the complex problems that we take on through chemical synthesis and characterization. You will apply your strong background in chemistry to develop solutions for the government's challenging problems. We need an ambitious and dedicated colleague who is eager to take a leadership and mentorship role and contribute to laboratory research. You will have the opportunity to work across a wide-range of research domains including synthetic chemistry, polymer science, catalysis, materials science, and more. In our group, your research will span fields, from synthesis of stimuli-responsive polymers to inorganic coatings for thermal management; from adhesives, coatings, and ink technologies, to electrochemistry and catalysis. We enable and encourage our team members to generate their own research ideas and publish their findings. At APL, we are a hardworking, multidisciplinary team that is committed to solving challenging problems while embracing risk with the goal of realizing creative solutions. Our team is passionate about building advanced prototypes that will define the future of chemical sciences. We strive to foster a collaborative environment with world-class expertise that achieves game-changing impact. Our APL team values integrity and innovative ideas that will ensure our nation's preeminence in the 21st century.

As a chemist on our team...
