Sylvatex is a green nanochemistry company with a mission to eliminate transportation emissions. Our bio-based nanoplatforms are engineered systems that manipulate chemicals, fabricate materials and structures, produce energy and enhance our environment by providing lower cost and/or higher-performing solutions. Our IP-protected platform and growing database address multiple billion-dollar markets, from next-generation battery materials to low-cost fuels, while significantly reducing our carbon footprint in key industrial applications. 

 

As a Research Associate at Sylvatex, you will support the development of new processing of cathode materials and Li-ion battery testing.  You are passionate about positively impacting the environment with innovative clean energy solutions.  You are proactive and capable of operating in a fast-paced startup environment with little supervision.  Curiosity and optimism are two of your superpowers. You have a vision. Like a master architect, you create a roadmap and iterate and build from there when you see a path. 

 

This role will report to the CTO of Sylvatex.

  • Collaborate with industrial and academic partners.
  • Monitor and evaluate new developments in the literature and propose improvements for Sylvatex technology.
  • Maintain clean and well-organized lab areas, meeting all safety regulations.
  • Implement safe work practices (as defined by OSHA and company policies) to deliver an incident-free workplace.
  • Inform management and the CTO/COO of any incident within 24 hours.

 

Qualifications:

Sylvatex requires a Research Associate who can actively participate in producing cathode materials and testing battery materials. At the same time, as a technical team member, this person is also expected to contribute to the overall research and development strategy and its implementation.

 

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in chemistry, material science, or equivalent.  
  • Minimum 1 year plus of synthesis experience in the relevant fields (chemistry, advanced materials, nanomaterials, batteries)
  • Prefer experience in operation and data analysis of XRD, SEM, PSA, and ICP
  • Demonstrated ability to adhere to safety culture.
  • Experience at a start‐up company a plus

 

 Capabilities:

  • Self-starter and a bias for action – does things before being asked to or forced to by events.
  • Demonstrates understanding of internal and external customer needs and exceeds expectations.
  • Promotes open and effective written and verbal communication.
  • Actively promotes a positive team spirit.
  • Actively engages and respects the diverse contributions of teams, partners, or networks.
  • Anticipates future situations and plans to meet them.
  • Demonstrates openness to new ideas.
  • Looks for ways to do things better, faster, and more efficiently.
  • Flexibility, adaptability, and success at multi‐tasking; willingness and ability to participate in multiple programs simultaneously.
