What is an aerosol?

An Aerosol job typically involves researching, developing, or manufacturing aerosol products, such as sprays or inhalers, used in industries like pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and consumer goods. Professionals in this field work on formulation, testing, and regulatory compliance to ensure product safety and effectiveness. Roles may include aerosol scientists, engineers, or technicians specializing in propellant systems and spray technology.

What are the typical responsibilities of an aerosol scientist?

Professionals in aerosol science roles often conduct field sampling, operate specialized laboratory instruments, and analyze air quality data to assess the presence and behavior of airborne particles. You might be tasked with designing and performing experimental studies, creating technical reports, and presenting findings to stakeholders or regulatory agencies. Collaboration with interdisciplinary teams, such as environmental engineers, health researchers, or policymakers, is common to address air quality challenges. Your work may contribute to environmental policy development, occupational health assessments, or advancements in aerosol technology.

What skills and qualifications are needed for an aerosol position?

To thrive as an Aerosol Scientist or Specialist, you typically need a solid background in chemistry, physics, environmental science, or engineering, with hands-on experience in sample collection and data analysis. Familiarity with tools such as aerosol spectrometers, particle sizers, and relevant laboratory information management systems is crucial, and certifications in environmental health or laboratory safety can be beneficial. Strong analytical thinking, attention to detail, and effective communication help distinguish top performers in both independent research and collaborative projects. These competencies are essential for accurate data collection, compliance with safety standards, and impactful contributions to environmental monitoring and public health research.

Job description

Investigate and optimize aerosol generation, transport, and deposition mechanisms to advance Qnovia's ultrasonic nebulization technology.

About the Role

Qnovia's competitive advantage lies in its ability to generate aerosols with tightly controlled particle size distributions optimized for deep lung deposition. As an Aerosol Physicist, you will apply fundamental principles of fluid dynamics, acoustics, and particle physics to characterize and optimize our ultrasonic nebulization platform. This is a highly specialized role suited for candidates with deep expertise in aerosol science.

Responsibilities
  • Characterize aerosol generation mechanisms in ultrasonic nebulization systems
  • Develop computational and experimental models for aerosol transport and pulmonary deposition
  • Design and execute experiments to optimize particle size distribution, output rate, and dose uniformity
  • Evaluate the impact of formulation properties (viscosity, surface tension, concentration) on aerosol performance
  • Collaborate with device engineering on transducer design and acoustic energy optimization
  • Support regulatory submissions with aerosol characterization data and scientific rationale
  • Publish findings in peer-reviewed journals and present at scientific conferences
  • Contribute to intellectual property development and patent applications
Qualifications
  • Ph.D. in Physics, Aerosol Science, Mechanical Engineering, or related field
  • 3+ years of experience in aerosol generation, characterization, or pulmonary drug delivery research
  • Expert knowledge of aerosol measurement techniques (cascade impaction, laser diffraction, phase Doppler anemometry)
  • Experience with CFD modeling of aerosol transport and deposition
  • Strong publication record in aerosol science or related disciplines
  • Proficiency with MATLAB, Python, or equivalent computational tools
  • Excellent scientific communication skills
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience with ultrasonic or mesh nebulizer technology
  • Background in acoustic atomization or piezoelectric systems
  • Familiarity with ICRP lung deposition models
  • Experience with in-vitro airway models (Alberta Idealized Throat, realistic airway casts)

$135,000 – $175,000 annually, depending on experience. Equity participation included.

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision insurance
  • Equity ownership in a pre-commercial stage company
  • Flexible hybrid work arrangement
  • 401(k) with company match
