What you'll do:
- Undertake R&D works for the manufacturing process and function material development (e.g. advanced electroplating processing, nanocomposite material processing, chemical processing, etc.)
- Support team head to manage current R&D projects on new material development
- To support R&D project prospection with clients and assist in preparation of proposals related to manufacturing/ function material technology
- Develop and train AI/ML models (deep learning, active learning, Bayesian optimization, and surrogate models) for property prediction, materials discovery, and process optimization.
- Build and curate high-quality materials datasets from experimental results, literature sources, and atomistic mechanical simulations.
- Integrate machine learning predictions with experimentation to drive closed-loop cycles: AI Prediction → Experiment → Material Characterization → Data → Model Update.
- Develop experiments to validate the AI predictions and evaluate performance against established benchmarks
- Travel to Chinese Mainland or overseas occasionally for on-site work and project implementation.
You'll be a good fit if you have/are:
- Master degree in Materials Science, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related computational field
- Research background with nanomaterial application technology or graphene application technology or microfabrication technology is a plus
- Minimum 3-year experience preferably in manufacturing/material processing technology development
- Candidates who can demonstrate knowledge of AI, or experience and ability to apply Generative AI tools in their work, will be preferred.
- Proficiency in AI/ML models for property prediction, materials discovery, and process optimization.
- Experience with scientific/atomistic simulation tools or packages (e.g., DFT modeling, molecular dynamics, or platforms like Mira and DP Technology).
- Familiarity with active learning, graph neural networks for nanomaterial/molecular structures, or Bayesian optimization.
- Understanding of structure-property relationships in materials (e.g., nanomaterial, microelectronic, battery components, or catalysts).
- Candidates who can demonstrate knowledge of AI, or experience and ability to apply Generative AI tools in their work, will be preferred.
Note:
- Applicant may be considered for other positions if not matching the requirements of the subject position.
- This is a fixed-term contract position for a period of 24 months subject to renewal.
