ABOUT CUSPAI

CuspAI is the frontier AI company on a mission to solve the breakthrough materials needed to power human progress. While nature took billions of years to perfect molecules, we are harnessing AI to unlock trillion-dollar materials breakthroughs in months, not millennia. Our founding team is the most cited in the world, comprised of world-class researchers in AI, chemistry and engineering.

We are working on some of the hardest and most important challenges including energy, clean water, the future of compute, and carbon capture, and this is just the start of what our 'search engine' for next-generation materials will unlock.

We invite you to be part of a diverse, innovative team at the intersection of AI and materials science, working to create impactful partnerships that drive innovation, scalability, and industry collaboration. This work matters. Your work matters.

We’re on the cusp of the on-demand materials era. Join us.

THE ROLE

Due to rapid growth, we are seeking a Technical Program Manager with a strong technical or scientific background (Natural Science, Computer Science, Software Engineering and/or AI/ML) to join our team. You will be a key driver in our global partner ecosystem that accelerates the adoption of our AI Materials platform, which is critical for delivering next-generation semiconductor and advanced materials to market.

YOUR IMPACT

In this role you will be building and executing the program management framework that drives the activation of our AI Materials Foundry members towards real-world, scalable materials breakthroughs.

As a member of our growing team of TPMs, you will work closely with our AI Materials Foundry team on coordinating Foundry initiatives, events, and materials generation campaigns. You will also be involved in establishing more sophisticated, scalable processes for Foundry member engagement with our internal teams to drive to end to end technical delivery.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

Program Leadership & Research Integration

- Lead AI Materials Foundry programs across a global network of industry and lab partners towards materials discovery.

- Translate scientific and business objectives into executable plans, aligning commercial, research and engineering teams.

- Own planning and delivery of Foundry initiatives and events; managing resources & dependencies, mapping out timelines, and managing risks to ensure successful outcomes.

Partner & Customer Collaboration

- Lead technical programs with industry partners and research institutions, serving as a primary program contact for our external partners during the execution and delivery of projects.

- Facilitate technical discussions between internal teams and external stakeholders.

- Drive project scoping and proposal writing in collaboration with the partnerships and technical teams.

- Manage joint development initiatives and coordinate customer pilot programs from conception through to deployment.

Process & Operations

- Work closely with the rest of the global TPM team to refine scalable processes.

- Implement metrics for tracking milestones and program outcomes.

- Coordinate compliance and regulatory considerations across programs.

- Support intellectual property (IP) and scientific publication processes.

- Foster interdisciplinary team culture and own change management to successfully scale the organisation.

- Use data to drive continuous improvements to internal and customer facing processes.

MUST HAVE SKILLS AND QUALIFICATIONS:

- You possess a strong background in a Natural Science, Computer Science, Software Engineering, AI/ML, or related field.

- Proven experience as a Technical Program Manager in a scientific or AI/ML environment, with a clear sense of where the opportunities and challenges in the field lie.

- The ability to navigate high levels of ambiguity and maintain cohesion across multi-disciplinary teams (AI, Chemistry, and Engineering).

- Excellent stakeholder management skills with the ability to influence both highly technical researchers and non-technical partners at varying levels of seniority.

- Strategic thinking and problem-solving skills with comfort navigating ambiguity and changing priorities.

- Strong leadership and facilitation capabilities for managing cross-functional teams.

- Experience managing technical external-facing customer projects.

BONUS POINTS (BUT NOT CRITICAL):

- Practical experience or an academic background in Materials Science, Experimental Chemistry, or Physics.

- Experience managing joint ecosystem programs alongside major hardware tech giants like NVIDIA or Meta.

- Direct professional background working within a semiconductor foundry, design firm, or electronics materials supplier.

- Technical fluency across model architecture, cloud infrastructure, and the software development lifecycle.

- Experience with molecular simulation software, quantum chemistry packages, or cheminformatics tools.

ADDITIONAL CONSIDERATIONS

This role will be based in our London/Cambridge offices or our U.S. Bay Area office, with the expectation of being in the office three days per week. Additionally, there may be regular travel required to other locations for internal/external collaboration work.

- Equity in CuspAI: You have a stake in the success of the company

- Time off to stay fresh: 28 days holiday (DE, NL, UK) or 21 days holiday (JP, SG, US), in addition to local public holidays

- ‘Gold Standard’ parental leave: 26 weeks (primary caregiver) and 12 weeks (secondary caregiver) at full pay - we look after you and your family while we work on the most important materials discovery problems together

- Professional development budget: We invest in your career development so you can stay up to date with the latest industry knowledge or add to your skills to increase impact and growth

- Solve meaningful problems: See how your work has a direct impact on advancing materials science and solving sustainability and climate-related problems through the creation and application of bleeding-edge SOTA technology and revolutionary techniques

- True interdisciplinary teamwork: Be part of a deeply collaborative environment bridging AI research, computational chemistry, and experimental science - work with world-class researchers and engineers who enjoy sharing knowledge and supporting each other

Why it works

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
