Graphite Technical Lead – Carbon Process Development (Gaithersburg/Walkersville, Maryland) – Posted 2/18/26

A recruiter is currently running a search for a Graphite Technical Lead in Carbon Process Development:
“The client has developed a process that converts American coal into high-performance synthetic graphite at roughly 80% cheaper feedstock cost than conventional routes. American-made, competitively priced, and without the supply chain risk that comes with graphite sourced overseas.
We just filled their Technical Lead for Graphene and are now building out the Graphite side of the team. The role (Gaithersburg/Walkersville, Maryland, fully on-site) centers on taking bench-validated carbon chemistry into pilot-scale operations, defining process parameters, working through material characterization data (XRD, Raman, SEM, GDMS), and troubleshooting thermal processing systems.
They’re looking for 4 to 8 years of relevant experience, most often a PhD or postdoc in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, or a related field, with backgrounds in coal processing, carbon fiber, activated carbon, acid leaching, high-temperature processing, or powder handling all viewed favorably.
Base Salary is $130,000 to $150,000, plus a 10% performance bonus and long-term incentive eligibility.
Worth flagging early: candidates must qualify as a U.S. Person under export control regulations, and there’s no visa sponsorship available.”
