Vitro is the largest glass manufacturer in the Western Hemisphere and the largest glass producer in North America. Vitro’s glass products can be found in some of the most iconic vehicles on the road, in countless buildings and homes around the world, and in billions of glass containers produced every year. With more than 14,000 employees worldwide, we have expanded our global footprint and cemented our leadership role in the industries in which we operate.
- On average, up to about 25% time of travel will be required
- Characterizing optical properties of thin film materials using spectroscopic ellipsometry and other optical techniques
- Transfer of output of each R&D project into Manufacturing
- Summary of results/conclusions
- Analysis/interpretation of data
- Working as a member of a diverse team, comprising R&D personnel (e.g., scientists, engineers, engineering specialists, and technicians) and non-R&D personnel as enumerated above, pursuant to aforesaid research and development activities
- Ability to occasionally lift up to 45 pounds and to walk up to about 10,000 steps per day, particularly when working at Vitro plants
- Documentation of results
- During travel and while working at Vitro plants or similar environments, overtime and/or weekend/evening hours are sometimes needed
- Modeling of optical performance/aesthetics of coating designs to identify, refine, and optimize designs for thin film interference coatings which meet performance requirements (e.g., spectral performance requirements, aesthetic requirements, durability requirements)
- Soliciting input from personnel in R&D and non-R&D functions (e.g., Sales/Marketing, Manufacturing/Operations, etc.) to define project goals and performance targets for each development project
- Conducting experiments in a laboratory environment, and in a production plant environment as-needed, pursuant to the invention, development, and commercialization of new materials/technologies/products/processes
- Communication of results/conclusions in meetings and/or presentations to stakeholders including personnel within R&D, executive-level stakeholders, and personnel in other functions (e.g., Sales/Marketing, Manufacturing/Operations, Quality Assurance, Technical Services, etc.)
- Most work will be conducted in a laboratory environment and in an office environment, but some work in a manufacturing environment (e.g., at a Vitro factory/manufacturing plant) will be required at times dictated by the needs of the projects
- Technology and hardware of high-vacuum systems, especially vacuum-based thin-film coating deposition systems
- Physics/chemistry of thin films (e.g., thin film nucleation and growth; microstructure of thin films; optical, electrical/electronic structure, mechanical, tribological, thermodynamic, and/or chemical properties of thin films)
- Optical characterization of thin film coatings using spectroscopic ellipsometry
- Vacuum-based vapor-phase thin-film coating deposition processes (e.g., sputter deposition, etc.)
- Physics/chemistry of condensed matter (i.e., solid-state physics or solid-state chemistry)
- Design of multilayer thin film optical coatings using optical modeling software (e.g., Essential Macleod, OptiLayer, FilmStar, TFCalc, or equivalent)
- Optical physics of thin films (i.e., optical thin film interference filters)
- Surface analysis and materials characterization techniques, especially thin-film characterization techniques
- Thin film devices (e.g., semiconductor devices)
