Record, manage, summarize, and interpret experimental data; support timely technical reporting and, when appropriate, assist in the development of new methodologies under supervision
Support early-stage product development activities, including literature reviews, sourcing equipment and materials, and assembling prototype systems for ongoing research efforts
Prepare clear, concise technical documentation and summaries, including analysis and interpretation of experimental results
Maintain complete and accurate laboratory notebooks in accordance with established documentation practices
Promote and adhere to laboratory and office safety protocols and best practices
Apply appropriate tools and technologies to execute project tasks and solve routine technical challenges
Support the transition of technologies into product concepts, prototype designs, and potential commercialization pathways

Minimum Qualifications

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Chemistry, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, or a related field
Prior experience conducting laboratory-based research
Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, collaborative R&D environment
Strong capability to work independently as well as effectively within multidisciplinary teams

Excellent communication skills, including technical writing, data analysis, and interpersonal collaboration
Demonstrated ability and interest in understanding technical approaches within the context of end-use applications
Capacity to manage and contribute to multiple concurrent research programs
