Lead design and development work from concept through commissioning and operation of pilot system
Develop and lead the design of experiments for validation of component functionality & robustness
Consolidate and parameterize component designs for both ease of configuration and scalability in the field
Be comfortable both working with vendors and working in a shop environment for quick turn prototyping and iterating on designs
REQUIREMENTS:
B.S. degree or higher in mechanical engineering or relevant fields.
5-7 years of mechanical engineering R&D

OUTCOMES:
How will we know, with measurable clarity, whether you are doing an A-level job? What will the results be, what will we have achieved? What will it feel like?
Design and prototype a process that can run continuously within the first 6 months
Design and build a pilot per technical development timelines
BENEFITS:
Competitive annual salary, commensurate with experience
401k plan

ABOUT HYFE:
Hyfé is on a mission to enable the decarbonization of chemicals, materials, fuels and foods by using food waste to lower the cost of biomanufacturing feedstocks. Biomanufacturing uses microbes as mini factories to convert sugar into the same molecules that would otherwise come from carbon-intensive industries like petroleum or animal farming. Currently, the industry relies on carbon intensive and expensive crop sugars which have adverse impacts on biodiversity, soil health, water quality, and food security. Alternative, cost-effective, low-carbon feedstocks are urgently required for biomanufacturing to reach viable unit economics and commercialize decarbonization solutions.
Joining Hyfé is a chance to be part of something extraordinary – it’s not just a job. We are pioneering a tangible solution that can make the promise of biomanufacturing a reality. And right now might be the most exciting moment in the company’s history to join. We are assembling a team of some of the most talented and motivated individuals across the country. Driven by our core values of being fired up, fast, exceptional, and clear, our team is determined to deliver on our mission to help biomanufacturing transform how we make things for the better.

Equal Employment Opportunity: Hyfé is an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, pregnancy, age, national origin, disability status, genetic information, protected veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
