<li> Participate in troubleshooting and interpretation discussions to help guide next experiments. </li>
<li> Collaborate closely with engineers and scientists on experimental planning and system improvements. </li>
<li> Support technical documentation for internal reports, grants, and partner communications as needed.</li>
</ul>
Requirements
What We’re Looking For
Required
<ul>
<li>MS or PhD / equivalent in Geoscience, Geochemistry, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Physics, or a related field. </li>
