Join EAG Laboratories as a Scientist specializing in LC-MS analysis. In this role, you will perform hands‑on materials characterization, interpret and report high‑quality analytical data, and work directly with clients to support real‑world technical investigations. You will discuss LCMS data and experimental design with clients, connecting analytical methods and results to broader materials and product development challenges, supported by a strong foundation in organic chemistry, analytical chemistry and specifically chromatography. Our clients include leading technology companies, consumer product manufacturers, biotech companies and aerospace suppliers working in the early phases of product development. Scientists in our Materials Characterization group operate advanced analytical instrumentation, including FTIR, Raman, GCMS and LCMS, and collaborate closely with peers to understand problems, define solutions, develop analytical approaches, and execute high‑impact analyses.We are particularly interested in people with extensive (multi-year) hands-on experience with: LC-MS (Liquid Chromatography Mass Spectrometry). Supplemental skills and hands-on experience with GC-MS (Gas Chromatography - Mass Spectrometry) and/or GPC (Gel Permeation Chromatography) are also highly desired.We are looking for scientists who are very comfortable with all stages of the analytical process: experimental design, preparing samples, optimizing analysis conditions, acquiring data, interpreting chromatograms and mas spectra, writing reports and showing true insight into the meaning of the data acquired. This position requires a solid technical foundation in organic and analytical chemistry.  A typical day in the Organic team will consist of multiple activities and interactions, including: Writing reports and processing previously acquired data. Planning upcoming analyses. Setting up the instruments and acquiring new data. In parallel with that, you may also have other activities: Internal group meetings to plan overall use of the instruments to meet client deadlines. Requests from customers to discuss prior reports or they may have questions about future analyses. Meetings with the EAG commercial team (which may also include customers in the conversation) to discuss analyses and how we can help solve customers’ problems. You will also likely have longer-term projects, such as: Developing new analysis methods for new materials. Producing marketing materials or writing a paper. Working with our support team or vendors on fine tuning our instruments. Learning another adjacent technique or other training goals. These activities require extensive communication and collaboration with your colleagues. You’ll be learning to do a lot of things at once to keep multiple projects all moving forward and keeping the team updated. It’s a fast-moving job and we all like to share the load so helping other people in the team, and also being helped by them is part of what we do, in order to collectively help our clients meet their goals. Along the way you’ll do a lot of science too!
