Scientist

At STEMCELL Technologies, we are seeking a Scientist with expertise in microfluidics to lead the design, optimisation, and testing of our MEMS-based sorting chips and fluidic cartridges. This role is ideal for a postdoctoral researcher or experienced engineer looking to apply their skills in a hands-on, fast-paced commercial environment.

Requirements

• Plan and carry out experiments and simulations to support the development and optimisation of our next-generation microfluidic sorting chips and fluidic cartridges.
• Analyse experimental and simulation data, draw conclusions, and recommend next steps within the scope of assigned work.
• Use numerical simulation tools (e.g. COMSOL, ANSYS, OpenFOAM) to model chip performance and de-risk designs and contribute technical input to chip design, process decisions, and validation activities
• Write and run Python scripts for test automation and data analysis.
• Perform detailed performance analysis, summarise key findings, and present to findings to project teams and stakeholders; may represent the company in technical discussions with external partners, collaborators, or at conferences.
• Collaborate with external MEMS foundries to specify wafer builds, review process flows, and track fabrication progress.
• Work closely with internal teams across software, electronics, and biology to ensure smooth integration into the full system.

Benefits

• Comprehensive total rewards package that may include health benefits, retirement savings, and more (depending on region)
• Competitive salary
