Are you a recent Master's or PhD graduate with hands-on electron microscopy experience (TEM/STEM/SEM/FIB-SEM), looking to join a cutting-edge scientific software start-up with global travel and high autonomy?

Do you want to become the technical bridge between world-leading researchers and an R&D team, helping deploy and support pioneering software within microscopy?

The Role

  • Applications Engineer supporting global scientific customers (remote + occasional travel)
  • Install/configure/troubleshoot electron microscopy software integrations
  • Deliver product demos, workshops and technical training (live + remote)
  • Work closely with R&D, translating customer feedback into product improvements
  • Support pre-sales and attend conferences/trade shows

The Person

  • Recent Master's or PhD graduate in Physics / Materials Science / Engineering / Biology (or similar)
  • Hands-on electron microscopy experience: TEM / STEM / SEM and/or FIB-SEM (through research/projects is fine)
  • Comfortable customer-facing, problem-solving and communicating technical concepts
  • Desirable: experience supporting users (training, lab support, demos), based in the North West
