Materials tester đź“Ť Rotterdam, NL | Full-time | On-site đź•’ Experience: At least 3 Years of Experience
🧠Background: Materials Science and Engineering We're building the future of smart glasses—and we need curious minds to help shape it. At our Rotterdam headquarters, we're developing a proprietary manufacturing process for prescription lenses tailored for Augmented Reality and smart eyewear. We’re a small, focused team solving one of the hardest challenges in wearable tech: delivering high-precision, thin, and scalable lens systems that work seamlessly with AR displays. We are looking to grow our R&D Team—the core group responsible for prototyping, custom builds for customers, and solving the technical challenges that come with being first.
🚀 What You’ll Be Doing
- You will design, establish, and execute a controlled laboratory environment for the preparation, casting, and curing of solution-based multi-component materials, ensuring repeatable procedures, safety compliance, and process validation.
Tasks:
- Run Trial Experiments from A to Z
- Validate the reliability and reproducibility of the casting method with new materials
- Compare experimental outputs against control samples
- Document process parameters, deviations, and outcomes
🧠What We’re Looking For
- A solid technical foundation (e.g.chemical engineering, process Engineering or similar).
- At least 3 years of hands-on experience with running materials experiments and setting up stuctured operating procedures
- Run projects independently, collaborate with suppliers
- The ability to bring structure to complex technical challenges
🌱 What You’ll Get
- A Hard Challenge – We’re building something that doesn’t exist yet. It’s deep-tech with real-world impact.
- Ownership – You’ll have real influence on the product, the process, and how we grow as a team.
- Growth – As we expand globally, you’ll be part of the team setting the standard for what comes next.
- Competitive Pay – We offer a solid salary, with plenty of upside along with company success.
You’ll help shape products used by the next generation of AR devices—and be part of a team doing something no one else is doing (yet).
