The company is rapidly growing its global footprint, as well as advancing its technology platform to develop new tools that unlock broader water and wastewater applications.

Responsibilities:

Efficiently allocating resources, including assigning tasks to team members based on their skills and workload. Collaborating with cross functional teams to define overall strategy considering long-term goals and technological advancements. Identifying training needs, promoting skill development, and fostering the professional growth of team members. Develop and evaluate module designs in terms of fitness for application, with particular emphasis on materials of construction, glue compatibility, and spacer selection. Work closely with operations to optimize module designs for manufacturability and yield. Plan and execute pilot and full-scale tests of prototype and production modules to gather performance data relevant to various use cases. Working closely with our customer-facing applications engineering team and the membrane development group, author technical user manuals for new products. Interface with and support the applications engineering team to establish client needs and provide element design solutions. Provide strategic guidance and leadership in managing and enhancing the membrane product portfolio. Authoring technical papers and presenting at conferences and trade shows.

Keeping abreast of industry trends, emerging technologies, and best practices in the membrane industry. 8+ years of experience working with membrane processes such as reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, and microfiltration. Detailed knowledge of spiral-wound membrane construction, including experience with membrane autopsies. Experience with other types of membrane configurations (hollow fiber, tubular, etc) is a plus. Proven leadership ability, as evidenced by project and/or group management in prior roles. Professional experience with the design or troubleshooting of industrial membrane processes and the integration of membrane systems with other unit operations is a plus. Familiarity & experience with the basic tools of project management: Gantt, Kanban, critical path analysis, etc. Comfortable using AutoCAD or equivalent to produce engineering drawings and diagrams

Qualifications

Candidates must have a minimum of a relevant engineering degree (chemical, mechanical, or materials science preferred) or comparable experience in a previous role. Prior experience with membrane processes and spiral-wound membrane modules is

required .

Ideal candidates will have 8+ years of experience working with water or wastewater membrane processes and have intimate knowledge of spiral-wound membrane construction and failure modes.

For clarity, candidates do not need to be well-versed in membrane sheet fabrication, though a working knowledge of the basic principles by which membrane sheet is made is helpful.

Schedule, Travel, Compensation, and Location

This position can be a remote role. The nature of international work requires that some flexibility to accommodate time zones will be required. Remote candidates should expect to spend 4-8 weeks per year traveling to our Woburn, MA headquarters. Additional travel for this role to support projects will vary, but 10-25% (6-12 weeks per year) is an approximate guide.

This role will initially report to the CTO, though evolution in our business could change this over time.

Compensation will be commensurate with experience and include equity and benefits.
