We are the industry leader in materials informatics, the application of data-driven methods to materials and chemicals development. Our platform provides data management and AI tools that help our customers rapidly develop better, more sustainable materials. Our users are scientists and engineers at huge manufacturing and materials companies, and researchers at leading universities and government labs. Our platform enables our users to accelerate the development of new materials.
In 2020 Citrine was recognized for technology innovation by the Global CleanTech Group and was named one of the most promising AI startups by CB Insights. As a team, we are ambitious with our goals, passionate about our vision, and eager to grow and learn from each other. Our team is growing fast and looking for the best to join us.
Though our technology was originally built by materials scientists, our team now consists of professionals trained in a diverse set of fields, including data science, physics, biology, and computer science. We have offices in the San Francisco Bay Area, Chicago, and Pittsburgh, and our customers include Fortune 1000 materials and product companies.
About the Role
Citrine’s Data Engineering team works closely with our customers to solve challenging problems at the intersection of material science, data management, and machine learning. As a Data Management Engineer, you will work closely with our customers to understand their current scientific data generation, storage and retrieval systems. You will be required to create advanced application integration solutions and configure, deploy and enhance ETL pipelines that seamlessly integrate existing customer systems with the Citrine Platform.
Data are the lifeblood of both Citrine and our customers. To our customers, their data not only represent the distilled knowledge of decades worth of research, but also the foundation from which they can build machine learning models of materials behavior using the Citrine platform. The Data Management Engineer will be on the front line of our customer interactions, working with customers to determine the best path for integrating the Citrine data platform with their data sources.
Working at Citrine offers the rare opportunity to collaborate with applied scientists at the leading edge of statistical learning theory and application. Here are a few representative peer-reviewed publications describing research done at Citrine in support of the platform’s AI capabilities:
