Magnet Scientist
München. Full-time. Permanent employee.
Your mission
We are seeking an ambitious Magnet Scientist to lead the fabrication and engineering of next-generation magnetic materials. This is a lab-first, execution-driven role where you will go beyond composition discovery to engineer the microstructure, processing routes, and ultimate performance of AI-predicted materials. You will bridge the gap between computational predictions and physical reality, turning promising alloys into high-performance magnets by controlling phase formation, grain structure, and defects.
Key Responsibilities
Microstructure Engineering & Fabrication
- Execute day-to-day experimental synthesis using physical vapor deposition, melt growth, flux growth, and arc-melting.
- Design advanced heat treatments, annealing profiles, and processing routes to control grain size, texture, and phase distribution.
- Engineer coercivity, remanence, and temperature stability through precise microstructure design.
- Develop scale‑up routes from ingot to powder to bulk magnets, including sintering or hot pressing.
Characterization & Physics
- Perform high-level X-ray structure determination and spectroscopy.
- Measure hysteresis loops and temperature-dependent properties using magnetometry (VSM/PPMS or equivalent).
- Analyze domain behavior, reversal mechanisms, and magnetic anisotropy to provide physics-driven feedback to the AI team.
Your profile
Required qualifications
- PhD or MSc in Physics, Materials Science, Metallurgy, or Chemistry with 5+ years of hands‑on experience.
- Expertise in the synthesis and fabrication of inorganic crystals, specifically permanent magnets or functional intermetallics.
- Demonstrated experience in Microstructure Design and studying structure-property relationships.
- Proficiency in magnetic characterization using PPMS or VSM systems.
Preferred qualifications
- Experience with rare-earth or rare-earth-free magnets and powder metallurgy.
- Familiarity with EBSD, SEM, TEM for detailed microstructure analysis.
- Experience generating data for patents and industrial qualification.
