We’re looking for people who are smart and get things done – and that are excited about being an integral part of a small, ambitious team.
The Company
Metamaterial Technologies Inc. (MTI) a company founded in the UK, recently breaking into the Atlantic Canadian market. We are a dynamic company working at the "leading edge" of metamaterial design and larger scale industrial applications. We develop highly innovative optical metamaterial technology by finding ingenious solutions to difficult technical problems. The Company specializes in designs operating at frequencies from mm-wave to μm-wave to nm -wavelengths. Our targeted customers include a number of impressive international companies developing security, defense, energy, filtering and similar technologies. End applications for our products include solar panels, LED lighting and Security & Defense products. If we keep doing things right, we’ll grow and be successful. We’re looking for people who are smart and get things done – and that are excited about being part of a small, ambitious team.The Job(s)
We’re too conscientious to think that anyone who works for us can fit into a single box. At MTI there’s a big mix of things that need to get done. We do everything from research, design and development of new prototype metamaterial products and optics front end components (filters, amplifiers etc.) through to designing and building custom metamaterial components for volume production. We use a wide range of diverse technologies in our solutions – spanning nanoparticle synthesis & sol-gel processing to full custom deposition of thin-films that are designed in-house.Here’s a list of some of the things that keep us busy:
1) Material characterization using standard optics tools and techniques.
2) Metamaterial design & simulation (using CST, Matlab, Comsol)
3) Selecting and sourcing materials with desired properties
4) Nanoparticle synthesis & sol-gel processing
5) Spin coating, dip coating, deposition.
6) Basic mechanical design (2D and 3D)
7) Developing test strategies and systems for optical equipment & lasers
8) Developing PC software to control optical equipment & lasers
9) Assembling, testing and re-working prototype optical & laser systems
10) Developing semiconductor (Solar/LED) device packaging solutions
About You
You’ll need to be smart, committed and practical (did we mention that already?). And you must know something about Metamaterials Science, Electrical Engineering, Applied Physics or Chemistry. This pretty much means you will need a good degree in engineering, science or maths. We’ll provide you with some support and advice, but you will be expected to work hard, learn fast and be largely independent.Beyond that, we just need to be convinced that you’ll be able to do some of the things we need to get done. If you have the ambition to leave a dent in the universe and you’re smart enough, you’ll enjoy working with us!
Additional Information
As part of a small team you’ll have to opportunity to influence the direction and success of the Company. We’ll pay a competitive salary based on your qualifications and experience, and you’ll also receive share options in the Company.What's Next
If you’re ready to make this move, please send your CV, along with a covering email explaining how your skills would fit our needs, to careers@metamaterialtech.com We’ll probably be too busy to reply to everyone in person – but we will take a good look at every application.
