From Arcturus's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Arcturus is creating a new wire technology stack that uses carbon nanomaterials to overcome the materials limitations of metals where performance breaks down, at real operating temperatures. Our technology is designed to significantly improve the performance of electric motors for drones and robotics, heat sinks, and ultimately the entire energy grid. At its core, Arcturus is developing a new class of carbon nanomaterial-infused metal matrix composites for high-performance conductor applications.
Why you should join us
This is a ground-floor opportunity to help build something that has never been done before.
You would join as an early technical co-op and work closely with Arcturus’ technical team across nanomaterials, additive manufacturing, process engineering, and testing. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to learn quickly, contribute directly, and help build the experimental foundation for a first-of-its-kind materials platform.
Purpose
We are seeking a Research and Prototyping Engineer Co-op who can support the technical team across experiments, literature research, supplier research, sample preparation, fixture development, testing, and documentation.
This role is intentionally broad. You do not need to be an expert in every area, but you should be highly curious, organized, hands-on, and excited to work at the intersection of materials science, advanced manufacturing, and electrification.
This role will work closely with Arcturus’ technical leads and senior engineers.
Nanomaterials
Currently pursuing or recently completed a BS, MS, or PhD in materials science, mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, electrical engineering, physics, chemistry, manufacturing engineering, or a related technical field
Up to a one-year co-op experience with direct exposure to early-stage deeptech startup building. If the fit is right, we'd love to bring you on to the team!
If this role excites you, even if you do not check every box, we’d love to hear from you. We’d rather work with a fast learner who cares deeply about the work than someone with years of experience but little curiosity.
