Responsibilities

  • Develop and optimize processes for creating advanced materials for wearables displays.
  • Design, model, and prototype novel concepts for wearables displays.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including scientists, engineers, and researchers.
  • Characterize and analyze materials using various techniques, such as SEM, AFM, XRD, and DSC.
  • Develop and apply multiphysics simulations to inform process design and scale-up.
  • Document experimental methods, results, and process knowledge.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Currently has, or is in the process of obtaining a PhD degree in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Materials Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Organic Physics, Polymer Physics or relevant technical field, and/or equivalent practical experience. Degree must be completed prior to joining Meta
  • Demonstrated experience with material development, characterization, and analysis
  • Familiarity with phase diagram determination, thermal analysis, and solid-state characterization techniques
  • Hands-on laboratory experience with inert-atmosphere techniques and purification methods

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience with at least one multiphysics simulation platform (e.g., COMSOL Multiphysics, Ansys Fluent/Mechanical, Siemens FLOEFD/StarCCM+, or equivalent)
  • Experience working in a R&D environment with cross-functional collaboration
  • Demonstrated experience publication record in organic solid-state materials, crystal engineering, or related disciplines
  • Strong publication record in organic solid-state materials, crystal engineering, or related disciplines
  • Experience with CAD tools (e.g., NX, SolidWorks, or equivalent) and rapid prototyping (CNC machining, 3D printing, material selection for fixtures/tooling)
  • Proficiency with molecular characterization techniques such as NMR, GC/MS, and/or LC/MS for purity analysis and structural confirmation
  • Knowledge of defect analysis in molecular crystals (e.g., dislocations, grain boundaries, polymorphism)
  • Experience with organic optoelectronic device fabrication or characterization (OLEDs, OPVs, OFETs)
  • Demonstrated experience with melt growth, zone refining, Bridgman growth, or related crystallization techniques for organic or molecular solids
  • Experience designing or scaling up crystal growth furnaces or custom thermal processing equipment, hardware assembling and/or engineering controls
  • Proficiency with solid-state characterization techniques including at least two of the following: SEM, AFM, XRD, DSC, TGA, or polarized optical microscopy
  • Hands-on laboratory experience with inert-atmosphere techniques (glove box operation) and purification methods (sublimation, recrystallization)
  • Direct experience growing single crystals of organic semiconductors or π-conjugated molecular materials (e.g., acenes, thiophenes, perylenes)
  • Familiarity with phase diagram determination and thermal analysis of organic systems

Compensation

  • $122,000/year - $181,000/year; Country: US; Bonus eligible; Equity eligible
