Senior Materials Scientist, Dual Beam Analysis

Eurofins EAG Laboratories is hiring across multiple levels for our Advanced Microscopy group. We are looking for hands‑on technical talent with experience in Dual Beam FIB/SEM, TEM/STEM, or both, to support client‑driven materials characterization in a fast‑paced analytical lab environment. This team supports advanced materials, semiconductor devices, and other complex systems using electron microscopy techniques for imaging, analysis, and sample preparation. Depending on level and assignment, this role may align to Technician, Materials Analyst, or Scientist work. Some of our positions: Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM/STEM) Scientist Hands‑on TEM/STEM imaging and analysis (BF/DF, HAADF, SAED, EDS, EELS) Focus on microstructural characterization, defect analysis, and failure analysis TEM/STEM Automation Scientist Hands‑on TEM/STEM operation combined with building automation workflows (instrument control, data acquisition, and analysis pipelines) Develop Python‑based tools and image/data workflows to improve throughput, consistency, and usability in a production lab Apply image processing, statistics, or machine learning to microscopy datasets (2D/3D) to support client‑driven materials characterization Dual Beam FIB/SEM Materials Analyst / Engineer Dual Beam FIB/SEM operation with emphasis on TEM lamella preparation Site‑specific sample preparation for semiconductor and advanced materials applications Work closely with TEM teams to enable downstream analysis Atom Probe Tomography (APT) Scientist / Analyst Atom probe sample prep and 3D compositional data analysis. Work on nanoscale materials characterization across metals, semiconductors, and thin films. Collaborate with microscopy teams to provide multi‑modal analysis. Each role is specialized — candidates are not expected to cover all techniques across TEM, FIB, and Atom Probe. Must‑have Associate, BS, MS, or PhD in Materials Science, Physics, Engineering, or related field, depending on level; equivalent hands‑on industry experience may also be considered Hands‑on experience with Dual Beam FIB/SEM, TEM/STEM, or closely related electron microscopy tools Working knowledge of materials characterization, electron microscopy principles, and sample preparation Ability to work in a deadline‑driven, production‑focused lab Strong attention to detail, documentation, and technical problem‑solving Preferred Experience with TEM lamella preparation, lift‑out, or site‑specific sample prep Experience with semiconductor devices, failure analysis, hard materials, metals, ceramics, or advanced materials Experience with STEM/EDS, STEM/EELS, diffraction, or advanced imaging workflows Familiarity with tools/software such as FEI, JEOL, Oxford/Bruker EDS, Gatan EELS, DigitalMicrograph For higher‑level roles: method development, customer‑facing reporting, or workflow automation / scripting Shift & onsite expectations This is an onsite role. Lab coverage matters, and openings may support schedules such as Tuesday–Saturday, Sunday–Thursday, Wednesday–Sunday, or Saturday–Wednesday. Some roles may include evening coverage (commonly around 5:00 pm–2:00 am), weekend coverage, or occasional overtime based on business needs. Final schedule and shift expectations will be confirmed during the hiring process. Shift differential applies where eligible. Compliance note Some assignments may support work subject to U.S. export control regulations. Where required by law, eligibility to access export‑controlled information will be confirmed as part of the hiring process. To perform the work must be a U.S. Citizen, PERM resident, or Asylee. What success looks like First 90 days Safely complete training and begin working independently on assigned tools and workflows. Produce reliable data or sample prep that meets internal quality expectations. Learn team procedures, reporting standards, and turnaround requirements. By 6 months Consistently deliver high‑quality microscopy work with minimal rework. Manage multiple samples or projects while meeting deadlines. Contribute to workflow improvements, technical problem‑solving, and strong client support. Compensation and Benefits Competitive pay based on level, location, skills, and experience. Representative annual base pay for openings currently ranges from $73,000 to $130,000.
