Career Opportunity
WONIK MATERIALS NORTH AMERICA is an electronic chemicals company operating in the US and South
Korea.
The company is focused on the development of new chemical precursors for applications in
the semiconductor and hi-tech industries.
We are currently expanding our R&D capabilities at our Germantown Development Facility.
There are following positions available at this time:
Scientist, Group Leader
The ideal candidate should have an advanced degree in chemistry, or chemical engineering. In addition,
the candidate should have 3+ years of hands-on experience in the development and scale-up and/or
industrial production of high purity inorganic and organometallic compounds. Candidates with post-doc
experience and strong organometallic synthesis experience are also encouraged to apply.
Position requirements:
• Project Management — ability to manage multiple development and scale-up
projects.
• Mentoring and leading —ability to assemble, manage and lead a small team of
chemists
in the area of hi-tech chemical synthesis and production development.
• Technical writing — proven ability to generate detailed research reports, and
papers
published in peer reviewed journals.
• Good working knowledge of chemical kinetics and thermodynamics.
• Chemical engineering fundamentals: e.g., distillation, sublimation, adsorption.
• Cost evaluation, modeling of synthetic pathway and process hazard analysis.
• Chemical synthesis on R&D and glass scale production (22 - 50 L)
• Process optimization and transfer for scale-up manufacturing.
• Analytical chemistry techniques including NMR and GC
• Knowledge or understanding of different deposition processes e. g. chemical vapor
deposition (CVD), atomic layer deposition (ALD) and ion implantation is a plus.
Education and experience requirements:
Ph.D. degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, or materials science with an experimentally focused thesis. Expertise in organometallic chemistry is a major plus.
Salary: $75,000-$90,000 plus a highly competitive benefits package

Chemist 1 and Chemist 2
The ideal candidate should have an MS or BS degree in chemistry, or chemical engineering. In addition,
the candidate should have 2+ years of hands-on experience in R&D industrial chemical synthesis, or in
glass scale (22 L-50 L) production.
Position requirements:
• Good communication skills; oral and technical writing — proven ability to
generate
detailed lab reports.
• Chemical synthesis on the R&D and glass scale production (22 - 50 L)
• Knowledge of chemical kinetics and thermodynamics.
• Practical knowledge of distillation, sublimation and other purification
techniques.
• Evaluation/modeling of synthetic pathways.
• Process optimization and transfer for scale-up manufacturing.
• Knowledge of basic analytical chemistry techniques.
Some experience with inorganic and/or organometallic synthesis and operations under inert atmosphere, or industrial scale-up are a plus.
