Job description

Mafix transforms the world's most abundant rocks and minerals into the next generation of fertilizers. Our products help farmers maintain and improve crop yields while permanently removing CO₂ from the atmosphere through enhanced rock weathering, delivering a dual return that conventional agricultural products cannot.
We produce our mineral fertilizer using spare capacity in cement rotary kilns, making it cost-competitive without building new infrastructure. Applied to soil, it releases plant-available silicon and other nutrients that strengthen crops against climate stress, drought, and pests, while sequestering carbon as the mineral dissolves.
With core chemistry published in Nature, our pre-seed funding secured, and key partnerships in place, we are scaling fast: moving from pilot production to a 1,000-tonne commercial run in 2027. We are looking for team members excited to unlock the power of abundant rocks towards a climate positive and food abundant future!
Position Details:
We are looking for an experienced, enthusiastic Scientist who is passionate about creating products that deliver agronomic and environmental returns. This R&D Scientist will work closely with the Head of Technology to advance Mafix’s first-generation product and set the course for the company’s technology development.

  • Analyze and present results and implications from R&D experiments.
  • Be a collaborative member of a growing R&D team.
     
Qualifications:
  • PhD (or equivalent Masters + Experience, or BS + Experience) in Chemistry, Geochemistry, Materials Science, or related scientific or engineering field.
  • Experience designing and executing experiments in a laboratory setting
  • Experience with analytical techniques such as XRF, XRD, ICP, SEM, PSA

  • Experience with hydrometallurgy and/or pyrometallurgy preferred
