Skills: Production equipment operation, Batch manufacturing, Material handling, Quality control, SOP compliance
Sign up with Clera and we'll reach out the moment a role actually fits you — no more spraying applications into the void.
Operate production equipment to manufacture advanced material formulations while maintaining detailed batch documentation and quality standards. Support R&D scale-up activities and perform equipment maintenance to ensure compliance with AS9100 and ISO 9001 standards.
Requires an associate degree in a technical field or equivalent combination of training and at least 2 years of production experience. Candidates must possess strong attention to detail, the ability to follow technical SOPs, and the physical capability to work in a production environment.
About ACI Materials
ACI Materials has developed a proprietary processing platform that improves how advanced materials are made. The process enhances dispersion, formulation control, and manufacturing consistency for advanced materials used in a variety of technically demanding markets. These improvements support better product performance, lower process complexity, reduced waste, and improved production economics. ACI is now scaling into a global organization focused on high-value applications in electronics, aerospace, and industrial materials.
The Opportunity
Join a deep tech company serving aerospace, energy, mobility, and advanced electronics sectors. As an AS9100 and ISO 9001 certified manufacturer, we engineer advanced material formulations using proprietary fluid dynamics processing technology that fundamentally transforms material properties at the molecular level, enabling breakthrough performance across multiple industrial applications.
This hands-on technical role offers the chance to operate production equipment and execute batch manufacturing as we scale specialty materials from pilot to commercial capacity. You'll work directly with advanced formulation processing systems, maintain quality standards, and gain comprehensive production experience with a clear path to Production Manager for strong performers (typically 12-24 months).

Preferred Qualifications
The Production Technician Opportunity
This position provides hands-on technical experience that most production roles don’t offer: direct involvement in scale-up from pilot to commercial production rather than operating established, static processes.
You’ll work with advanced materials processing technology during its formative stage, gaining exposure to process optimization, quality systems development, and cross-functional collaboration with R&D and Engineering teams. As production volume increases 10-50x over the next 24 months, you’ll face real-world scale-up challenges and build expertise in advanced manufacturing.
For technically minded individuals who want hands-on production experience with clear advancement opportunities, this role provides a foundation for growth into Production Manager or Process Engineering positions.
