Phoenix, AZ | Weekend Shift EligibleEurofins EAG Laboratories is seeking a hands-on Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) Scientist who also has strong experience building automation, scripting, or data workflows for microscopy data.This is a specialized, hybrid role combining advanced TEM operation and applied automation/data science in a production laboratory environment.This role requires both:Hands-on experience operating TEM/STEM systems for materials characterizationAND hands-on experience building or implementing automation, scripting, or data workflows (e.g., Python, DigitalMicrograph, ImageJ, or similar tools)Candidates with experience in only one of these areas will not be considered.The Scientist will collaborate closely with engineers, scientists, and operations teams to translate laboratory requirements into practical, scalable automation solutions and data workflows.This role is centered on materials science applications within an analytical laboratory setting. The position requires experience aligned with materials characterization and non-biological systems, which are most relevant to the work performed. Responsibilities include a combination of hands-on laboratory execution and applied programming, rather than work that is solely research- or theory-based.Work is conducted in a client-driven analytical services environment, requiring solutions that are practical, scalable, and reproducible.What You’ll DoDesign, build, and implement automation workflows directly on S/TEM systems (data acquisition, instrument control, and workflow scripting)Develop and maintain automated pipelines for TEM data collection and analysisPerform image processing (segmentation, enhancement, measurement, visualization) on 2D and 3D datasetsApply computer vision, statistics, and machine learning to microscopy and analytical dataWork with multi-modal materials characterization data (TEM, SEM, EDS, XRD, XPS, RBS, etc.)Improve throughput, repeatability, and data quality of TEM-based servicesBuild tools for data processing, feature extraction, and exploratory analysisPartner with lab teams to translate real-world analytical problems into automated solutionsSupport S/TEM operation and data collection, including EDS/EELS where neededContribute to new TEM capabilities (e.g., 4D STEM, advanced imaging workflows)What Success Looks Like (First 6–12 Months)Implement or improve automation workflows used in production TEM workReduce manual intervention in data collection and analysisIncrease throughput and consistency of TEM servicesBuild usable tools and pipelines that lab teams adoptWork ScheduleWednesday–Sunday or Saturday–WednesdayWeekend shift differential appliesCompliance Requirement (ITAR)This position supports work related to defense applications and is subject to ITAR regulations.Applicants must be U.S. Persons, defined as:U.S. CitizenU.S. Permanent Resident (Green Card holder)Political Asylee or Refugee
