About the role

Boston Materials' New Product Introduction (NPI) team is looking for an experienced Process Development Engineer who can turn cutting-edge R&D into reliable, production-ready manufacturing.
This work isn't just about maintaining stability, it's solving hard problems, removing bottlenecks, and unlocking the keys to scaling production processes to high-volume operations.

In this role, you'll work closely with Engineering and Operations to translate new processes into clear, repeatable procedures that support our next generation of thermal interface materials.
You'll own the details of process control and data analysis, implement rigorous monitoring to spot patterns, uncover root causes, and push systems to meet high safety, capacity, and yield targets.
Design and optimize novel chemical/materials processes for commercial production of advanced materials.
Deliver key Release-to-Manufacturing milestones and capacity scaling across new manufacturing and quality processes.
Develop and execute DOE's that improve understanding of process fundamentals and ultimately lead to increases in process stability, capability, and scale.
Identify, select, and implement instrumentation, controls, etc. to enable process and material characterization necessary to achieve developmental goals.
Implement 6S for production equipment and workstations.

Assist Operations team in devising and implementing workflow improvements.
Work with quality engineers to establish quality metrics that assure product form, fit, and function.
Conspicuously exemplify high standards of safety, organization, communication, and documentation.
Work effectively in a startup or small company setting.
Embrace challenges, adapt to changes, and continuously seek to improve.
Bachelor's or Master's degree in Chemical Engineering or Materials Science strongly preferred
equivalent experience considered.
