At Mojo Vision, we focus on developing and commercializing world-class micro-LED technology for consumer, enterprise, and government applications. Designed as a critical component of Mojo Lens and first announced in 2019, the Mojo Vision Micro-LED Display is the smallest, densest dynamic display ever made, and the Micro-LED technology platform underlying it is powerful and flexible enough to serve a wide range of applications from next-generation wearables up to future televisions and video walls. As a result, micro-LEDs will disrupt the entire $160B display industry, and our unique technology puts us at the forefront of this disruption.

We are a startup founded by technology experts with decades of experience developing pioneering products and platforms and backed by some of the world’s leading technology investors in Saratoga, CA.

You will help support our development of next-generation uLED displays.

We seek a highly motivated Senior Chemist with a strong background in developing and characterizing novel chemical synthesis processes and materials to join our team. The ideal candidate will have experience in synthesizing, characterizing, and optimizing CdSe-CdS-ZnS and other quantum dots. The role will involve developing new and innovative methods for synthesizing quantum dots, optimizing their performance, and characterizing their properties to facilitate their commercial development.

Roles and Responsibilities:

Design and execute experiments to synthesize and optimize quantum dots for various applications.
Develop new and innovative methods for synthesizing quantum dots and optimizing their performance.
Tailor and optimize the characteristics of quantum dots, shells, and ligands to meet the integrated requirements of Mojo’s LED micro display products.
Characterize the physical and chemical properties of quantum dots using a range of analytical techniques, such as UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS).
Contribute to developing characterization tools, process understanding, and failure analysis.
Develop models to predict crystal growth and synthesis kinetics to optimize the synthesis process and improve the performance of quantum dots.
Contribute to the development of product roadmaps, and release schedules.

Qualifications:

Ph.D. in Chemistry or a related field.
Expertise in synthesizing, optimizing, and characterizing quantum dots and/or other nanocrystals.
Experience in material-related characterization of semiconductors and processes common in III-V and II-VI material systems.
A deep understanding of crystal growth and synthesis kinetics.
Excellent interpersonal and communication skills.

If you are a highly motivated individual with a passion for developing new and innovative methods for synthesizing and optimizing quantum dots, then we encourage you to apply for this exciting opportunity. Show us what you have done and how you approach challenging new technology from demonstration to high-volume manufacturing.
