Job Description

We are seeking experienced Scientists who are passionate about hands-on analysis, advanced characterization techniques, and delivering impactful results for clients across a wide range of industries.

Join our Advanced Microscopy team and play a key role in solving complex materials and semiconductor challenges using cutting-edge Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM).

In this production focused role, you'll spend significant time operating state-of-the-art TEM instrumentation, analyzing advanced materials, and providing high-quality, site specific insights that drive critical client decisions. The ideal candidate is a technically strong contributor who thrives in a fast-paced laboratory environment, enjoys working directly with sophisticated tools, and takes pride in delivering accurate, timely results while meeting client expectations.

The TEM Scientist will be responsible for:

• Partnering with team members to provide high quality analysis service to clients.
• Operating TEM tools to obtain TEM/STEM images, SAED, EDS and EELS data from samples.
• Developing TEM analysis protocols/techniques to meet clients’ requests.
• Creating summary reports to capture the project objectives, analysis data and interpretation of the results.

A typical day would involve-

• Operating the TEM tools (FEI or JEOL electron microscopes) and collecting TEM/STEM images based on customers' requests.
• Performing elemental analysis such as EDS/EELS (collecting/process the data and creating the reports).
• Engaging in discussions with customers to solve their questions and concerns.

Work Schedule: *5pm-2am, Tuesdays to Saturdays OR Sundays to Thursdays

*10% shift differential will apply

Lab locations: Milpitas or Sunnyvale, CA

Qualifications

• Minimum 3+ years hands-on TEM operation experience (general electron microscopy or broader materials characterization experience will not meet this requirement)
• Independent operation of TEM/STEM instrumentation
• Hands-on SAED technique (Selected Area Electron Diffraction)
• Hands-on EDS (Energy Dispersive Xray Spectroscopy) and EELS (Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy) techniques for acquisition, processing, and interpretation
• 4D-STEM technique experience
• Demonstrated understanding of TEM operating principles
• Experience developing TEM-specific analysis protocols/techniques
• Experience producing reports that interpret TEM results

What would set you apart:

• FEI/Thermo Fisher and/or JEOL instrument experience
• Preferred experience with semiconductor chips and wafer samples
