About OHR

OHR is pioneering a new era of chemical manufacturing built on Creationary ChemistryTM, a platform that merges biological intelligence with primordial chemistry to create essential molecules in ways that are cleaner, smarter, and independent from traditional oil-based supply chains. We design and scale chemistry that matters most, delivering strategic chemicals with deterministic carbon chains and minimal contaminants, strengthening industrial resilience and global sovereignty. Our work spans advanced synthetic pathways, catalysis, and scalable process design, with real-world impact across fuels, materials, and critical industrial sectors.

At OHR, Scientists sit at the center of invention. This role exists for chemists who are ready to own chemistry programs, not just contribute to them—designing reactions, generating insight, and pushing work forward from discovery through scale-ready development.

We're looking for a Heterogeneous Catalyst Design Chemist who wants to operate with real autonomy in the lab, guide reaction strategy across programs, and serve as a technical anchor within the chemistry team. You'll work across synthetic discovery, process optimization, catalysis, and scale-up—turning first-principles chemistry into deployed technology.

If you're motivated by responsibility, technical depth, and seeing your chemistry leave the lab, this role is for you.

You'll lead and execute chemistry programs within OHR's Creationary ChemistryTM platform, owning reaction design, catalyst design/selection, data quality, and technical progression across one or more product pathways.

In this role, you will:

• Uphold and exemplify excellence in laboratory safety, chemical hygiene, and responsible research practices
• Design, execute, and lead heterogeneous catalyst design, discovery, selection, and optimization experiments across OHR R&D programs
• Discover and develop novel base and precious metal-on-solid-support catalysts for reactions leverage OHRs
• Build, characterize, and test in-house solid catalysts for diverse reactions
• Identify and manage external technical interactions with catalyst suppliers and partners
• Experimentally validate reactions using the library catalysts to build data packages supporting scale up
• Identify and procure catalyst preparation equipment and draft catalyst construction and characterization experimental workflows
• Draft, optimize, and train colleagues on technical procedures and specialized reactions
• Prepare detailed experimental data packages and protocols to support technology transfer to Manufacturing and external partners
• Contribute to research strategy and IP development to strengthen and defend the Creationary ChemistryTM platform
• Partner with Project Management and leadership to track R&D progress, milestones, and KPIs

This role is for someone who wants to do the work. You're excited to be in the lab, comfortable operating in environments where not everything is defined yet, and motivated by building chemistry systems from the ground up.

You may have experience in academic, industrial, or startup labs—but you're drawn to environments where your experiments directly shape direction, not just reports. At OHR, Chemists and Scientists are trusted contributors whose work materially advances the platform.

Required qualifications:

• Master's degree in Chemistry or related field
• Preference for a Master's or PhD in Inorganic Chemistry
• A strong record of laboratory safety and chemical hygiene
• Hands-on experience contributing to chemistry R&D projects, including technical work in one or more of the following:
• Heterogeneous catalyst design and construction
• Heterogeneous catalyst discovery, screen, and optimization
• Heterogeneous reaction optimization
• Strong experimental documentation and data analysis skills

Nice to have:

• Experience working with international technical teams or external partners
• Familiarity with export-controlled or restricted technical information

• Onsite, 5 days per week, in a collaborative and fast-moving R&D environment
• Hands-on work in BSL-1 and HazMat laboratories with flammable, corrosive, and other hazardous materials
• Up to ~10% travel to support collaborators, facilities, or program needs

OHR is an equal opportunity employer. We believe breakthrough science comes from diverse perspectives, and we're committed to building an inclusive, respectful, and ambitious workplace.

WHAT WE DO

We connect children and families to the joy and power of reading. Words Alive is a San Diego-based nonprofit organization founded on the belief that reading matters — not only for academic achievement, but for personal empowerment, confidence, and lifelong opportunity. Founded in 1999, our programs both inspire a love of reading and remove barriers to learning and achievement for students across the region.

For over 26 years, Words Alive has worked across generations and in partnership with schools, families, caregivers, volunteers, and community organizations to ensure that all children and families — especially those in historically underserved communities — have access to high-quality books, shared reading experiences, and literacy support. We focus on making reading both accessible and meaningful by combining evidence-based literacy practices with joyful, engaging experiences that build skills, curiosity, and confidence. We are a data-driven organization.

Our core programs include:

• Read Aloud Program
• Adolescent Book Group
• Family Literacy Program

LEADERSHIP & CULTURE

Our Executive Director reports to a 15-person Board of Directors. Under the leadership of current Chair Meredith Baratz, Words Alive has successfully navigated a pivotal period of organizational transformation and executive transition, with a board whose leadership style is rooted in strategic vision, inclusion, and care for community. Our board actively supports every area of the organization, including cross-team collaboration, program support, and fundraising. Our outgoing ED, Rachael Orose, will wrap up her outstanding term at the helm of Words Alive on December 31, and the board has identified an experienced interim ED to lead the organization until a permanent successor is identified. During her six-plus years at Words Alive, Rachael truly took the organization to new heights, successfully leading us through the pandemic, and enabling Words Alive to both scale and deepen our impact. She was also extremely focused on building a culture and work environment centered on inclusivity and transparency, where every team member is encouraged and empowered to be at their very best every day.

Today, the organization is the best it has ever been. We have diligently worked to strengthen our financial position since the pandemic, with a current operating reserve of over six months. Our programs are reaching more kids and families than ever before, thanks to our amazing base of 900+ volunteers — they are the heart of our organization and a testament to the power and impact of our work.

And thanks to a major real estate gift, Words Alive recently moved into a new building in the East Village of Downtown San Diego, and is completing final enhancements. Already, the facility has become a true community hub.
