Jobs at Metal Oxide Technologies

Leads development, optimization, qualification, and scale-up of sputtering and thin-film deposition processes for continuous HTS wire manufacturing. Designs statistically rigorous experiments, improves yield and film quality, establishes process controls, troubleshoots complex manufacturing issues, and drives corrective actions. Partners cross-functionally on production integration, documentation, validation, and supplier coordination while mentoring junior engineers and leading technical improvement projects.

Leads the design, development, testing, and integration of cryogenic systems supporting high-temperature superconducting technologies. Responsibilities include thermal analysis, laboratory validation, prototype development, technical documentation, component procurement, partner integration, project ownership, and customer collaboration. Provides technical mentorship and contributes to engineering best practices and commercialization of superconducting solutions.

Leads the design, development, testing, commissioning, and integration of web-handling and conveyance equipment for continuous HTS wire manufacturing. Responsibilities include precision machine design, material transport, tension and winding systems, validation testing, technical documentation, vendor coordination, cost modeling, reliability improvements, project delivery, and mentorship of junior engineers.

Leads the manufacturing organization across production, maintenance, EHS, quality, and yield. Establishes semiconductor-grade operating systems, SPC, process controls, reliability programs, production planning, and continuous improvement systems. Partners with R&D and Engineering to transition complex technologies into repeatable, scalable production while improving safety, throughput, yield, cost, equipment performance, and delivery. Builds leadership teams, expands manufacturing sites, and drives disciplined multi-shift operations.

Leads daily operations of an R&D laboratory and pilot line supporting advanced materials, superconducting conductor testing, failure analysis, process development, and manufacturing scale-up. Supervises technicians, manages equipment readiness and calibration, develops analytical methods and SOPs, ensures data integrity and safety compliance, and provides technical recommendations to engineering, quality, and manufacturing teams. Drives continuous improvement, laboratory capability development, and technology transfer into production.

Lead the design, development, testing, commissioning, and continuous improvement of mechanical systems for MOCVD and thin-film deposition equipment. Design vacuum, thermal, precision assembly, gas delivery, reactor, and conveyance systems; conduct engineering analysis and validation; create technical documentation; support troubleshooting and manufacturing scale-up; coordinate suppliers and cross-functional teams; and mentor junior engineers.

Leads FP&A, budgeting, forecasting, reporting, financial modeling, capital planning, fundraising support, investor engagement, and corporate development. Advises executive leadership and the Board on strategic decisions, acquisitions, partnerships, investment opportunities, and performance management. Builds scalable finance processes, dashboards, valuation analyses, and integrated models while partnering across operations, finance, and IT in a high-growth, capital-intensive environment.

Executive leader responsible for MetOx’s superconducting technology strategy and research organization. Leads multidisciplinary teams developing REBCO materials, MOCVD deposition processes, reactor platforms, diagnostics, predictive models, and scalable manufacturing technologies. Oversees research roadmaps, commercialization, intellectual property, process qualification, and technology investments while advising executives, customers, partners, universities, and government agencies.
