## About the role

At Periodic Labs, we are automating scientific research in materials discovery; the data we collect, and how we represent it, is what makes this possible. We are hiring a materials scientist to work across the entire process: to find where our agents and data fail, and to fix those failures at the source. This is a hybrid research and infrastructure role.
