Job Description:
As a Technical Engineer/Expert, you will be instrumental in the research, development, and optimization of PbI₂, CsI, PbBr₂, and CsBr solutions. Your primary focus will be on advancing our product portfolio, with particular emphasis on the manufacturing, processing, and application of these materials in next-generation perovskite solar cells, LEDs, radiation detectors, and specialty optics. This position offers significant influence over product development without direct team management responsibilities. We Are Looking For:
- Experts with deep knowledge of PbI₂, CsI, PbBr₂, and/or CsBr production and processing (any of these is okay).
- Individuals experienced in halide-based material R&D, process design, or scaling to production.
- Professionals who thrive in a remote, globally collaborative work environment.
- Lead the development, process design, and technological advancement of PbI₂, CsI, PbBr₂, and CsBr materials for perovskite solar cells, LEDs, photodetectors, radiation detectors, and advanced optics.
- Conduct thorough product planning and feasibility analysis, aligning with performance requirements and technology roadmaps.
- Provide expert guidance for the preparation of engineering samples, ensuring rigorous verification of product design functions and specifications.
- Design and implement robust reliability verification schemes, using failure analysis insights to continuously optimize processes and product stability.
- Bachelor’s degree or higher in Materials Science, Inorganic Chemistry, Metallurgy, or related fields.
- 4-10+ years of industry experience with a strong theoretical foundation and hands-on expertise in halide materials research and development.
- Demonstrated ability to independently lead R&D initiatives for advanced functional materials.
- Proficiency in thin-film processing, crystal growth, or specialty material manufacturing.
- Advantage: Direct experience with perovskite precursors, scintillation crystals, or halide-based optoelectronic materials.
- Familiarity with Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs) or adjacent advanced material systems is a plus.
