Description

Via Separations is a Boston-area startup dedicated to enabling process efficiency and intensification for the industrial sector. In 2024, Via delivered its first commercial facility and changed the narrative around market-driven energy technologies that drive value for industrial customers.  At the intersection of engineering, society, and impact, our team is passionate about making a difference and building the technology and organization to do it.  We are a fast-paced, interdisciplinary team backed by leading venture capital firms, and we are looking to add talented, mission-driven people to our cohort. 

We are passionate about transformative impact, optimistic about scientific progress, and unafraid of hard problems. We believe that our people are our unfair advantage, and drive our mission forward. We embrace the diversity of our team for creative solutions and believe the best ideas come from the intersection of disciplines and perspectives. We want you to join us!

Via’s Membrane Performance team is responsible for the testing, characterization and development of the membranes and materials necessary to deliver industrial filtration systems. As a Senior Analytical Scientist within this team, you will collect and analyze data to understand critical membrane performance trends and use this information to support the design and optimization of existing and future systems. You will develop and refine field test methods to ensure data reliability and accuracy. You will have the opportunity to work as part of a cross-functional team, spanning from bench scale R+D through to commercial systems processing hundreds of gallons per minute. This is an excellent opportunity for someone with a passion for innovation and a track record of delivering technical solutions in complex industrial environments.

  • An ability to execute effectively and make decisions with incomplete information
  • Excellent communications and interpersonal skills, with the ability to engage with stakeholders at all levels of the organization
  • Commitment to promoting a culture of safety through continuous improvement
  • Some travel (up to 15%) may be required
