Company Profile

Thermulon is an impact driven team of entrepreneurs, scientists and engineers developing a high-performance, fire-safe insulation material, aerogels. Aerogels are the most insulating materials known to science and we believe they’ll be at the centre of the green transition which is taking place today. At its heart – Thermulon is a process engineering company developing and scaling new chemical methodology to make aerogel powders in a more efficient manner, reducing their price. Our 3 year vision is to successfully scale Thermulon’s innovative chemical process to produce highly insulating aerogels at a commercial scale.

Our Values

Thermulon strives to develop the next generation of scientists and entrepreneurs by giving them the opportunity to learn cutting-edge laboratory techniques in a highly collaborative and dynamic environment. Our values, we know that living our values helps us achieve our mission and makes Thermulon a great place to work. When we see values we celebrate them and we are not afraid to call it out when we need to see change.

Fast pace – we can have a huge impact when we collaborate and grow together, bringing this all together means we move at a pace. We are decisive and urgent.

The role

Your work will include finding chemical or engineering solutions for the processes that we’re working on at laboratory scale. This will require creative thinking, as well as good planning and communication skills with your colleagues. It will also require foresight in choosing methods that can be applied on larger scale, for either batch or continuous processing. Based on existing protocols you will also be able to plan and design your own experiments. This will allow you to bring in ideas of your own and contribute to our process.

You will work in a small international team with a broad background from various fields of chemistry and engineering. Your dedicated manager will be supervising and aiding your work, making sure your impact is not lost. Once you’re on board, you will carry out chemistry experiments and have the chance to plan your own days in correspondence with your colleagues and be responsible to present the results of your work to the rest of the team.
