Duties & Responsibilities:
Position Description: R&D Roll Coating Engineer - Thin-Film Optics
Position Summary
The R&D Roll Coating Engineer plays a key role in developing next-generation thin-film optical materials through advanced roll-to-roll coating technologies. This role focuses on early-stage formulation evaluation, process development, and prototyping of precision optical films used in cutting-edge optical systems, displays, sensors, and photonic components. The engineer will work hands-on in the lab and pilot line to develop scalable coating processes, characterize thin-film performance, and translate experimental findings into robust manufacturing pathways.
Key Responsibilities
R&D Process Development
- Develop, refine, and validate roll-to-roll coating processes for advanced thin-film optical materials.
- Design and execute structured experiments (DOE) to explore process-material interactions and determine optimal coating conditions for experimental formulations.
- Conduct feasibility studies to assess new coating chemistries, equipment configurations, and process technologies for future optical product platforms.
Thin-Film Characterization & Analysis
- Evaluate thin-film thickness, uniformity, refractive index, optical transmission/absorption, and surface morphology using metrology tools such as profilometry, ellipsometry, AFM, microscopy, and spectrophotometry.
- Analyze defects and film anomalies and identify root causes through materials, mechanical, or process-related investigations.
Coating Technology Expertise
- Develop new coating strategies for multi-layer optical stacks, nanostructured films, high-precision functional layers, or specialty surface treatments.
Pilot-Line Development & Scale-Up
- Conduct hands-on trials on pilot roll-to-roll equipment to validate newly developed processes.
- Translate laboratory findings into scalable processes and establish the groundwork for manufacturing transfer.
- Identify constraints or risks associated with scale-up and propose design or formulation modifications to improve manufacturability.
Cross-Functional Collaboration
- Work closely with equipment engineering, quality engineering, and manufacturing technology teams to advance new product concepts.
- Communicate experimental results, insights, and recommendations through technical reports, presentations, and data summaries.
- Contribute to design reviews, technology roadmaps, and development milestones for emerging optical products.
Documentation & Method Development
- Develop process documentation, experimental protocols, and early-phase control strategies for new coatings and formulations.
- Maintain accurate experimental records, process parameters, lab notebooks, and data sets to support reproducibility and long-term research continuity.
Pre-Requisites / Skills / Experience Requirements:
Qualifications:
Required:
- Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering, Materials Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Optics, or related technical field.
- 5-10 years of relevant experience in roll-to-roll coating or thin-film development within R&D or advanced materials environments.
- Experience performing structured experiments (DOE), data analysis, and root-cause investigations.
- Proficiency with analytical tools such as Minitab, JMP, or Python-based analysis.
- Must be U.S. Persons as defined by ITAR. ITAR defines a U.S. Person as a U.S. Citizen, U.S. Permanent Resident (i.e. "Green Card Holder"), Political Asylee, or Refugee.
Preferred:
- Experience developing thin-film optical materials, multilayer optical stacks, interference coatings, polarization films, or related technologies.
- Familiarity with optical metrology and thin-film characterization techniques.
- Experience working in cleanroom or contamination-controlled environments.
- Current DOD clearance
If you have what it takes to push boundaries and seize opportunities, apply to join our team today.
