Materials Development Manager

A career-defining opportunity rarely offers all of the following:

Direct connection to the mission.  Gain a clear understanding of the business and see how your work directly shapes outcomes. With no unnecessary layers, silos, or bureaucracy, every team member contributes meaningfully to the company's success and has the responsibility to drive real impact.

Growth beyond a single role.  At Boston Materials, you are not defined by your past experience or limited by a job description. Working alongside leading experts in the field, you will take on new challenges, broaden your expertise, develop new capabilities, and take ownership of projects that matter – while contributing to the broader success of the organization.

Work on problems that matter.  Help solve some of the most pressing challenges in the Advanced Semiconductor, AI Infrastructure, and Advanced Materials industries.  Boston Materials offers a rare combination of purpose, autonomy, and impact. We invite you to join us.

Boston Materials is seeking a Materials Development Manager to lead the scientists and engineers developing our next generation of Liquid Metal Thermal Interface Materials (TIMs). You will set the technical direction for the materials development roadmap, build and mentor a team of chemists and materials engineers, and own the path from new concept to a material that is qualified with customers and ready to transfer to manufacturing.

This is a player-coach role. You will spend real time in the lab and in the data — interface chemistry, formulation, characterization, and reliability testing — while managing priorities, people, and timelines across multiple programs. You will work closely with our NPI, Advanced Manufacturing, Applications, and Commercial teams to make sure what we develop can be built at scale and solves the thermal problems our customers in AI and datacenter hardware face today.

The ideal candidate combines deep materials expertise with a record of turning research into products and is energized by building a team in a fast-moving startup.
