What are the typical daily responsibilities of an NMR scientist?

As an NMR Scientist, your daily tasks generally involve preparing samples, acquiring and processing NMR spectra, and analyzing structural or dynamic information from various compounds. You will often work closely with other scientists, such as synthetic chemists, biochemists, or material scientists, to interpret results and provide data that supports their research. Additionally, maintaining and troubleshooting NMR instruments, developing new experimental techniques, and documenting results in detailed reports are common parts of the role. This position requires a balance of hands-on laboratory work, data analysis, and ongoing collaboration with multidisciplinary teams.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in the NMR scientist position, and why are they important?

To thrive as an NMR Scientist, a strong background in chemistry, physics, or related fields along with expertise in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is essential. Familiarity with NMR instruments, data analysis software, and, in some cases, certifications in analytical chemistry are typically expected. Strong problem-solving ability, attention to detail, and effective teamwork and communication skills set standout candidates apart. These skills are crucial for accurately interpreting data, troubleshooting experiments, and collaborating in dynamic laboratory environments.

What is an NMR scientist?

An NMR Scientist specializes in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to analyze molecular structures and compositions. They operate and maintain NMR instruments, interpret spectral data, and contribute to research in pharmaceuticals, chemicals, or materials science. Their role involves method development, troubleshooting, and ensuring high-quality analytical results. NMR Scientists often collaborate with chemists, biologists, and engineers to support drug discovery, quality control, or academic research.

Job description

Location: Cambridge, MA (The Engine, MIT.nano, and Harvard’s Center for Nanoscale Systems)
Job Type: Full-time
The Opportunity

We\'re hiring a Scientist specializing in Polymer Synthesis to join the product development team alongside our CTO, Phil Hustad (PhD Cornell, 24 years at Dow and 3M, 150+ patents). This is a hands‑on lab role where you\'ll own the architectural design, synthesis, and molecular characterization of VioNano’s core polymer platforms. You will have real ownership over experimental direction and synthetic strategies, translating novel chemical concepts into scalable, qualified materials that define our commercial path. If you want to do high‑impact work in an environment where your synthetic expertise is directly visible, this is that job.


What you\'ll do
Advanced Synthesis:

Design and execute complex polymer syntheses using advanced techniques, including anionic and controlled free radical polymerizations, to achieve precise architectures, ultra‑narrow molecular weight distributions, and targeted end‑group chemistry.


Characterization:

Run and interpret rigorous polymer characterization experiments (including GPC/SEC, NMR, MALDI-TOF, and thermal analysis) to validate polymer structure and purity.


Scale-Up & Collaboration:

Drive the transition of successful synthetic routes from bench‑scale exploration to larger R&D quantities, collaborating closely with external contract research organizations (CROs) and internal formulation teams.


Strategic Input:

Partner directly with the CTO to define experimental roadmaps, build IP documentation, and establish repeatable laboratory workflows.


What We\'re Looking For
Required:
Education:

PhD in Chemistry, Polymer Science, Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a closely related field, or equivalent demonstrated capability through industry experience (we\'ll consider exceptional candidates without a PhD who have a strong track record).


Synthetic Mastery:

Deep, hands‑on academic expertise in advanced living or controlled polymerization techniques, specifically anionic polymerization and/or controlled free radical methods (RAFT, ATRP, etc.).


Analytical Rigor:

Proven track record of utilizing advanced characterization tools (GPC, NMR, etc.) to elucidate complex polymer structures.


Resourcefulness:

Comfortable working at lab scale in an agile, early‑stage environment where you can creatively design experiments with limited equipment to yield meaningful results.


Communication:

Strong scientific communication skills, with the ability to write clear experimental reports and present findings to both technical and non‑technical stakeholders.


Strongly Preferred:
Polymer Physics:

A strong foundational understanding of polymer physics (e.g., chain thermodynamics, phase separation, thin‑film behavior, or surface dynamics) to help guide material design.


Semiconductor Industry Context:

Familiarity with electronic materials, semiconductor lithography, or surface modification chemistry.


Mindset:

Prior startup experience or a proactive, self‑directed working style where you thrive on solving unmapped technical problems.


What kind of person thrives here:

You\'re someone who is energized by working in a space where the answers aren\'t known yet. You take ownership of problems rather than waiting for direction. You\'re rigorous but pragmatic. You know when a perfect result is worth waiting for and when a good‑enough result unblocks the next step. You want to see your work matter, and you want to work with people who are genuinely excellent.


Why Join VioNano?

The opportunity to be one of the first scientists at a company doing genuinely new work in semiconductor materials


Direct collaboration with a world‑class technical founding team


Daily access to state‑of‑the‑art facilities at The Engine and MIT.nano


Competitive salary and meaningful early‑stage equity


Cambridge, MA location — on‑site (lab work requires physical presence)
