We’re looking for a highly motivated, driven and dynamic individual with a passion for designing, evaluating and developing novel physical, chemical or other vapor deposition processes for thin film coatings. A few of the job responsibilities include optimizing economic roll to roll (RTR) novel materials or multi-layer of materials, scaling up novel processes for multi-layer coatings via physical or chemical methods and designing new mechanical processes integrating multiple process steps in manufacturing. Additional responsibilities include evaluating prototype processes and modifying designs based on engineering analysis, interacting with equipment and system suppliers for integration into the final system design and communicating with material and product engineers on a daily basis to ensure material designs are compatible with new process equipment options.
We’re going to give preference to those local San Diego applicants with a MS in materials engineering, thin films engineering or advanced mechanical engineering with a least two years of experience. We’re looking for someone who has worked on new innovative processes on new materials and is a strong analytical thinker and problem solver. We are not sponsoring work visas for this position.
