Computational Materials Scientist

OverviewWe look for computational materials scientists excited about bridging the gap between materials/chemistry, data science, and computer science to help us develop a software framework for designing and discovering new advanced materials and chemicals.Work will focus on (1) the application of nanoscale modeling to large sets of materials, surfaces, and reaction pathways with minimal human input, (2) organizing the data produced by the models and experimental validation, (3) establishing artificial intelligence approaches using the data.Successful candidates will continue into leadership roles as we grow.This is a full-time permanent position.Responsibilitiessoftware developmentmaterials modeling with AI/MLproduct design and concept developmentwork closely with the engineering team, relay and explain complex conceptsWhy Joinsee the results of your creative work used directly by the world's leading enterprisesrealize your ambitions and directly define how materials research is done in the futurework with top-tier human capital in research, engineering, and venture capitalRequirementsScientificexcellent knowledge of chemistry/materials science (Ph.D. from a tier-1 lab)prior work on advanced electronic structure methods (VASP, Quantum ESPRESSO, Gaussian, NWChem, Siesta, or similar)prior experience with machine learningEngineeringpython (advanced)Linux/RedHat/Bash (advanced)MongoDB/JSON (intermediate)message-passing interface / OpenMP (intermediate)other (GPU, TPU) - willing to learnOtherability to learn and apply new concepts rapidlyextreme attention to detailsPlusfamiliarity with AWS EC2, Microsoft Azurefamiliarity with SaltStack or similarBenefitsCompany Benefits IncludeHealth Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)Retirement Plan (401k, IRA)Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)Paid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)Short Term & Long Term DisabilityTraining & DevelopmentWork From HomeFree Food & SnacksWellness ResourcesStock Option PlanCompensation$90,000 - $140,000 salary range0.1 - 0.5% stock options
