Scientist II/Senior Characterization Scientist, Condensed Matter
Your Impact at LILA
As a Scientist II/Senior Scientist on the PS Experiment team at Lila Sciences, you will drive the development and implementation of advanced characterization workflows for magnetic and superconducting materials. You will be a core contributor to Lila's autonomous science platform, designing and executing high-throughput experiments that yield critical structural, magnetic, and transport data to guide materials discovery. Working at the intersection of experimental science, robotics, and AI, you will collaborate with experimentalists, systems engineers, and machine learning scientists to build scalable characterization workflows that accelerate the path to scientific superintelligence in superconductivity and magnetism.
What You'll Be Building
- Design, execute, and optimize characterization workflows for magnetic and superconducting materials using techniques such as magnetometry (VSM/SQUID), transport measurements, and AC susceptibility.
- Analyze and interpret complex datasets to extract materials properties including critical temperatures, field-dependent behavior, and magnetic ordering.
- Collaborate with experimentalists, systems engineers, and ML scientists to integrate characterization outputs into closed-loop autonomous experimental workflows.
- Develop
