About Sorion
Sorion is re-engineering how critical chemicals and materials are produced through a mechano-catalytic platform that replaces slow, high-energy, solvent-intensive steps with direct, high-efficiency solid-state processes. Our approach enables materials that are impractical to make by conventional means, unlocking entirely new possibilities for industry and the planet. If you want your work to become real products and help define the future of materials manufacturing, this is the place.
Role description
As R&D Engineering Technician at Sorion, you will build, operate, and maintain the hands-on infrastructure that enables rapid mechanochemistry R&D. You'll assemble custom milling systems, wire temperature-control rigs, execute high-quality experiments, and support the early build-out of our pilot plant. Your work will turn experimental ideas into reliable hardware and data-producing systems, directly increasing Sorion's scientific velocity and helping us scale from benchtop prototypes to production-ready unit operations.
What you'll do
Build and modify experimental equipment
Assemble, wire, and validate modified ball milling systems, including integrating heaters, thermocouples, PID controllers, and motor drivers
Build custom mechanical fixtures and enclosures (e.g. 80/20 aluminum framing + acrylic)
Work with engineers to prototype and debug custom mechanochemical reactor systems
Maintain and repair laboratory equipment to maximize uptime
Execute experiments with reliability and precision
Co-develop and refine SOPs with scientists and engineers to ensure efficient, high-quality experimental workflows
Precisely and rigorously execute mechanochemical experiments including data collection
Handle powders, reagents, and solvents safely and consistently
Organize experimental materials, consumables, and records for efficiency and traceability
Support pilot-scale unit operations
Assist engineers during the build-out of Sorion's pilot line, contributing to rigging, wiring, troubleshooting, and validation
Help bring new unit operations online and ensure they operate safely and as intended
Shape culture and ways of working
Maintain a clean, organized, safety-first workspace
Collaborate across disciplines with low ego and high curiosity
Play a critical role in defining Sorion's foundational culture as an early team member
What you'll bring
We're looking for a hands-on builder - whether you developed skills in industry, in school, or through personal projects.
Ability to read and execute basic wiring diagrams for heaters, PID controllers, thermocouples, relays, and motor drivers
Hands-on mechanical assembly expertise, including building rigs with 80/20, basic machining familiarity, and tool competence
Proficiency in installing and using scientific equipment
Ability to co-develop and follow SOPs with consistent execution
Proficiency with spreadsheets for logging experimental data, tracking experimental data, and recording maintenance
Safe handling practices for powders and solvents
Ability to translate mechanical, chemical, and electrical requirements into actionable tasks when working with interdisciplinary team members
Highly organized work style across both physical and digital environments
Ability to thrive in an early-stage, high-ambiguity, fast-paced startup environment
