  • Lead the design of novel coating architecture to improve or optimize the performance of current product lines.
  • Provide technical direction for selecting and qualifying new coating materials based on functional requirements (e.g., barrier, dielectric, or conductive properties).
  • Apply engineering and scientific research methods to refine existing coating processes for better consistency and yield.
  • Bridge the gap between R&D and production by providing technical support for the scale-up of new coating materials.
  • Work with multi-disciplinary teams to perform laboratory work that improves product performance and resolves customer technical issues.

  • Technical proficiency across a wide range of thin film coating and deposition application methods including solution coatings, plated processes, and vacuum processes.
  • Solid grasp of polymer structure-process-property relationships, specifically regarding adhesion, thermal stability, and morphology in thin-film coatings.
  • Proven ability to design and implement complex experiments (DoE) and use statistical tools to solve technical challenges.
  • Knowledge of intrinsically conductive polymers (ICPs) and specialized dielectric coatings.
  • Familiarity with surface characterization techniques to evaluate coating integrity.
