Job description
About us
For a complete understanding of this opportunity, and what will be required to be a successful applicant, read on.
We’re an early-stage, venture-backed company changing how industrial chemicals are made with modernized process technology. We’re a small team with deep R&D experience, based in Chicago. We’re in stealth, so we’ll share more as conversations progress.
The role
You’ll be one of our first technical hires and will help build our R&D program from the ground up. We're looking to add a broad range of skillsets over the next 3-6 months spanning electrochemical engineering to organic chemistry to mechanical engineering. The work is, by definition, hands-on: designing and running experiments, building and improving hardware, making sense of the data, and helping decide what we do next. The scope is broad and will grow with the company.
Most importantly, we want someone willing to do whatever it takes to build and scale a company from the ground up. This is not a job with a well-defined description. This is not a job with lots of hand holding. We need someone to come in and make an impact fast, and to grow and build independently.
What we’re looking for
Degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, electrochemistry, electrochemical engineering materials science, mechanical engineering, or a related field, or equivalent industry experience
Hands-on experience building and scaling new chemical processes or technologies
Enjoys building and troubleshooting, not only running established protocols
Self-directed and comfortable in an early-stage setting
What we offer
Competitive salary + equity, commensurate with experience
Health, vision, dental, 401k and other benefits.
Real ownership over technical direction from day one
We are an equal opportunity employer. xhqgsiq We welcome applicants of all backgrounds.
