Antora Energy develops thermal battery systems that store energy as heat using solid carbon materials. The company provides energy storage solutions designed to supply industrial heat and power for manufacturing and other large-scale operations. Backed by Activate Venture Partners.
About the role
Antora is seeking a well-rounded, high-initiative leader with deep subject-area expertise in III-V MOCVD epitaxial growth on InP substrates to lead the thermophotovoltaic (TPV) epitaxy program end-to-end. The role involves designing epitaxy development campaigns and managing the external suppliers who execute them. This requires deep knowledge of epitaxy and materials, designs of experiment, characterization techniques, data analysis, and investigative skills.
What they're looking for
- Ph.D. or Master’s in materials science, electrical engineering, applied physics, or related field, or equivalent experience
- 8+ years of hands-on epitaxy (esp. MOCVD) experience with arsenide/phosphide III-V materials grown on InP substrates. Fluent in epi characterization and interpretation (e.g. XRD, PL, morphology analysis, ECV, SIMS)
- Demonstrated development of tunnel junctions in As/P material systems
- Strong device physics knowledge, especially for III-V optoelectronic devices (e.g. photovoltaics, laser diodes, LEDs, detectors). Comfort with device physics modeling tools
- Understanding of commercial MOCVD reactor platforms and how their features impact growth science and device outcomes
- Familiarity with the facilities and safety requirements of MOCVD installation and operation
