Chemical Data Scientist

Das ist der Job

We run high-throughput experiments, simulations, and ML-driven optimization loops.

Darum lohnt es sich

Give lab and automation teams concrete feedback on experimental quality and design Make learning compound, not fragment Create clear, concise digests that align the entire team on what was learned Track how understanding evolves across campaigns, not just within them Raise the bar for how scientific progress is communicated internally Influence the system, not just the analysis Shape data pipelines and analytical views by using them aggressively Help define what “analysis-ready” data actually meansin practice Ensure infrastructure evolves aroundreal scientific workflows, not abstractions Your profile Master's or PhD in chemistry, electrochemistry, materials science, or a related field 3–6 years of experience working with experimental or computational data in a research or R&D context (post-Master's; fewer years post-PhD is fine) Strong Python skills and comfort with data analysis tooling (pandas, NumPy, scikit-learn, etc.) Familiarity with electrochemistry or energy materials; you should have intuition for what experimental artifacts look like and which trends are chemically meaningful Clear technical communication: you can write a summary that a lab scientist, an ML engineer, and a program manager can all use Bonus: exposure to tools like RDKit, pymatgen, or ASE; familiarity with MongoDB or similar databases English fluency About us Dunia , meaning “world” in over 20 languages, reflects our focus on building technologies that deliver abundance globally.

Your mission Turn Dunia's experimental output into an understanding that drives better decisions Dunia is building AI for one of the hardest unsolved problems in science: turning materials discovery from an academic, trial-and-error process into a programmable, scalable discipline.

The hardest problem is not generating data, and as our lab throughput increases, so does our data output. It is knowing what that data actually means. As Chemical Data Scientist, you will sit at the center of Dunia’s discovery loop. You will be the person who spots the signal from the noise, and whether a trend is real or misleading.

You will ensure that the organization, its systems and models are actually learning. This role is about judgment as much as analysis. You will shape how experimental evidence flows into models, simulations, and decisions, and in doing so, how fast and how well Dunia discovers new materials.

Your tasks will include: Be the scientific sense-maker Interrogate data from ongoing electrocatalyst campaigns Identify patterns, anomalies, and failure modes that others miss Develop intuition for where experiments lie, and where they tell the truth Close the loop between matter and models Decide which experimental signals should inform ML feature design Decide which experimental signals and discrepancies are important enough to merit computational explanation.

By combining physics, AI, and automation, we accelerate materials discovery for next-generation energy and industrial systems. Our work helps make energy more accessible and materials more affordable and resilient while reshaping how science moves from idea to impact. Join us to work on problems where progress truly compounds.
