Nanofabrication Scientist

**Some of the typical responsibilities will include**:

- Learning and developing micro and nano-fabrication processes while operating in a Class 100 cleanroom environment.
- Conduct experiments to improve, discover, and test nano/microfabrication processes. Resolve technical process issues with innovation and pragmatism, while mitigating delay and process waste.
- Characterizing nanostructures and materials in and out of a cleanroom. Collecting and measuring data and developing characterization models.
- Maintaining and writing rigorous and complete documentation such as standard operating procedures (SOPs). Delivering biweekly or monthly reports on the development progress and the measured data.
- Effectively contribute to early-stage prototyping and intellectual property development.

**Minimum qualifications**:

- A PhD degree in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Material Science, or relevant disciplines.
- Must have Minimum 4 years of hands-on experience with electron beam lithography systems, layout engineering, and silicon and metal dry etching techniques from design to implementation.
- In-depth familiarity with thin film deposition, spin coating, wet bench processing, and metrology characterization is required.
- In depth knowledge in one of these areas is required: metamaterials and plasmonics, flat optics, silicon photonics.
- Must have demonstrated publication record in peer-reviewed journals is a must.

**Preferred qualifications:
- Familiarity with nanoimprinting techniques is desirable.
- Familiarity with fast-paced prototyping in cleanroom environment is a plus.

**About Us:
**Meta Materials Inc. “META®” (NASDAQ: MMAT) **is a developer of high-performance functional materials and intelligent surfaces that are scalable, sustainable, and efficient. Through applied physics and advanced design, we are pioneering a new class of multi-functional materials — called metamaterials — which have engineered properties that Go Beyond what is found in nature. Our extensive technology platform encompasses three core capabilities, holography, lithography, and wireless sensing, and is software and AI-design driven. This allows us to develop a library of solutions and functional prototypes much faster and at lower cost than traditional chemical synthesis.

Our technology platform enables leading global brands to deliver breakthrough products to their customers in consumer electronics, 5G communications, health and wellness, aerospace, automotive, and clean energy. Our nano-optic technology provides anti-counterfeiting security features for government documents and currencies and authentication for brands.

**META **has worked with some of the world’s leading companies including Airbus, Satair, Lockheed Martin, and Sekisui. **META’s **Nanotech business recently renewed a frame agreement with a top-ten central bank to develop a new security feature, and has delivered its LumaChromesecurity feature for more than 30 banknote denominations.

At **META **we make surfaces smarter, more sustainable, and we do more with less. Together with our partners, we go beyond what’s possible today by creating intelligent surfaces that protect, detect and connect.
