About the role

SandboxAQ in the United States is seeking a Senior Materials Research Scientist to bridge generative chemistry with external validation partners in PFAS-substitution projects for semiconductor processes. You will design and rank candidate molecules, translate experimental feedback into actionable improvements, and collaborate across data, chemistry, ML and engineering teams to deliver directionally correct, process-ready solutions.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
