Technical Process Engineer

Ampcus Inc. is a certified global provider of a broad range of Technology and Business consulting services. We are in search of a highly motivated candidate to join our talented Team. Job Title: Technical Process Engineer Location(s): Rockford, TN Position Summary We are seeking a temporary entry-level Process Engineer to work in day-to-day manufacturing scenario of scintillator materials for PET molecular imaging applications. The candidate will work in a production-oriented environment focused on process execution, equipment operation, documentation, and scale-up from development into large-volume manufacturing. This role requires daily operation of production and laboratory equipment, support of controlled material-processing steps, and close collaboration with the R&D team to ensure process stability, repeatability, and day-to-day production of material precursors. The candidate currently has more than six months of hands‑on training in several critical processing steps and has demonstrated reliability, strong work ethic, and the ability to contribute effectively as a temporary worker in a technical manufacturing environment. Key Responsibilities Manage and execute day-to-day manufacturing process steps for scintillator material production, including preparation of liquid precursors, nanomaterial synthesis, powder processing, calcination, milling, and sieving. Operate production equipment on a daily basis in support of pilot and large-volume manufacturing, including forming, precursor material preparation and synthesis. Support process control, sample tracking, chemical inventory, batch documentation, data entry, and processing of experimental and production data. Collaborate closely with R&D, engineering, manufacturing, and quality teams to transfer process knowledge, troubleshoot production issues, improve workflow, and expand manufacturing capabilities. Follow EHS requirements for chemical handling, powder processing, thermal equipment, laboratory housekeeping, and safe production operations. Required Qualifications Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Process Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, or a related technical field. Hands‑on experience in a laboratory, pilot production, manufacturing, or technical process environment preferably. Ability to operate equipment safely, follow detailed procedures, maintain process discipline, and document work accurately. Strong attention to detail, data organization skills, reliability, and ability to work effectively in a team‑based production environment. Highly Desirable Skills Experience with chemical precursor preparation, nanomaterial synthesis, powder processing, thermal treatment, or advanced materials manufacturing. Familiarity with material characterization and process‑support equipment such as ICP‑MS, DSC‑TGA, particle size analysis, BET testing, porosity measurements, light output, decay time, or timing performance testing. Prior hands‑on training in scintillator material production, equipment operation, or related advanced materials processing. Conversion to Full Employment This position supports a potential conversion from temporary worker to full‑time employee within a one‑year time frame. Conversion would be based on performance, business needs, ability to manage daily manufacturing responsibilities, safe equipment operation, and continued contribution to production readiness and commercialization.
