We are a pioneering startup poised to revolutionize the supply chain by introducing groundbreaking serialization for products that have remained unchanged for decades. Our innovative approach involves developing the first-ever chip-less inventory tag, enabling the serialization of every product to streamline inventory management. Currently, we are seeking a hungry self starter with material formulation and deposition experience. This role offers hands-on experience, direct involvement with our inventive engineering team, and an opportunity to contribute to the design process.
Despite our primary challenge of scalability, we have secured contracts with reputable companies such as GE and Brown-Forman, along with substantial funding and support from investors like Mark Cuban. Now, we require the assistance of a materials science engineer, chemical engineer, or chemist to optimize our lab operations, materials, and manufacturing processes for our patent pending inventory tags.
The position can be either full-time or part-time initially, depending on the candidate's availability.
Compensation includes equity, highly competitive salary, comprehensive benefits, and relocation assistance if necessary.
Candidates will be paired with an expert in the field to mentor them and gain experience much faster than typical. The position is in person and in Louisville, Kentucky.
Responsibilities:
Spearhead the deposition of various conductors, dielectrics, and other relevant materials using printers.
Create SOPs for material analysis, printing, and quality control standards.
Lead experimentation for quality control design specifications and implementation of new equipment + materials.
Support manufacturing, research and development, and operations for Fortune 700 customer products.
Qualifications:
STEM or similar engineering field (like chemical, material science, or physics), Bachelor's degree or higher with 0-5 years of experience.
Experience in a laboratory with creation of SOPs and experimentation is preferred.
Experience with thin film deposition, material analysis, and thin film quality control equipment (four point probe, profilometer, epsilometer, etc) is beneficial but not required.
