About Us


Active Surfaces is a cutting-edge technology company specializing in renewable energy solutions. Our mission is to revolutionize the solar industry through innovative thin-film semiconductor technologies.

Our company was born from nearly a decade of MIT research in 2022 and has gained significant momentum in last few months, from winning multiple awards in the MIT/Harvard community to closing our pre-seed fundraising round this summer.

Our team is now looking to expand. We are seeking a highly motivated and creative Device Engineer / Scientist to join our R&D team and contribute to the development and prototyping of solar devices.

We are backed by a noteworthy venture capital fund and supported by world-class clean tech accelerators: ACCEL, Cleantech Open, Venture for Climate and more recently Third Derivative. Our innovations are IP protected, our approach is unique, and our stakeholders believe that our technology is the future of solar.

Come join us to revolutionize solar and fight climate change!

About the Role


Description

As a Device Engineer / Scientist, you will be a key player in our R&D efforts to advance flexible solar thin-film devices. Your expertise in thin-film semiconductor materials, preferably in perovskites, organic photovoltaics (OPVs), or other related thin-film systems will be vital in driving the development of our next-generation solar products. Working directly with the Founder & Chief Technology Officer (CTO), you will take a leading role in conducting research activities, prototyping solar cell devices with a design-for-manufacturing focus, and integrating new materials and techniques into our product development and ultimately manufacturing processes.
