Uncountable is changing that. We build a unified R&D platform used by the world's leading chemists, material scientists, and biologists to dramatically accelerate how new products are discovered, developed, and brought to market.\nFounded by engineers from MIT and Stanford, and trusted by enterprise R&D organizations across chemicals, pharmaceuticals, advanced materials, and food & beverage, Uncountable is on a mission to accelerate industrial R&D by an order of magnitude. We're a high-impact team that moves fast and gives people real ownership from day one.\nThe Role\nThis is not a typical customer success role. As a Scientific Implementation Manager, you are the person who bridges the gap between a scientist's world and Uncountable's platform - and that requires something most software companies can't offer: someone who genuinely understands both.\nYou'll work directly with R&D leaders, bench scientists, and technical teams at some of the world's most innovative industrial companies, helping them translate years of experimental knowledge into a structured, powerful data environment. You'll configure the platform to reflect how their science actually works, identify where their data lives and how to bring it together, and guide them through a transformation in how they manage and leverage their R&D.\nAt the same time, you'll be a critical voice internally - your customer-facing experience will directly shape product development, ensuring we keep building the most useful R&D platform in the industry.\nThis is a fast-paced, project-driven role that sits at the intersection of science, business, and software. If you want to use your scientific background to do something genuinely impactful beyond the bench, this is it.\nWhat You'll Do\nLead Scientific Implementations\nServe as the primary scientific point of contact for new customers through the full onboarding journey\n\nTranslate a customer's experimental workflows, data structures, and scientific domain into a tailored Uncountable configuration\n\nRestructure and contextualize customer data so it becomes immediately useful, searchable, and actionable in the platform\n\nDrive Customer Engagement\nLead discovery calls, demos, and working sessions with R&D managers, scientists, and technical stakeholders\n\nBuild trusted relationships by demonstrating genuine scientific fluency - you'll earn credibility because you understand their work, not just their software\n\nSet project timelines, manage implementation milestones, and ensure customers hit their go-live goals\n\nDesign and Configure Complex Scientific Workflows\nArchitect end-to-end platform configurations that faithfully capture a customer's experimental paradigm - from how they define formulations and design experiments, to how they record measurements and track results\n\nMap intricate scientific data structures (multi-variable formulations, hierarchical sample relationships, linked test methods) onto Uncountable's data model, making principled decisions about how best to represent each customer's science\n\nWork through ambiguous, edge-case data environments - customers with years of legacy spreadsheets, idiosyncratic naming conventions, and non-standard workflows - and design configurations that are both scientifically accurate and practically usable\n\nIterate on platform configurations in close collaboration with customers, running working sessions where you test, refine, and validate that the system reflects how their team actually thinks about their research\n\nDevelop and document reusable configuration patterns across domains (coatings, polymers, pharmaceuticals, food science, etc.) that can accelerate future implementations and inform product development\n\nShape the Product\nAct as the voice of the customer internally, surfacing patterns and gaps you see across implementations\n\nCollaborate directly with engineering and product to advocate for features that meet the real needs of R&D teams - your field experience will influence what we build next\n\nYour First 90 Days\nMonth 1: Develop deep fluency in Uncountable's platform and learn how we implement it. Take ownership of configuring experimental data for onboarded customers, working alongside the customer success and sales teams to faithfully capture end-user workflows.\nMonth 2: Begin leading your own customer meetings and demos. Run scientific due diligence sessions with new accounts, gather data requirements, and iterate on platform configurations with live customers.\nMonth 3: Own the end-to-end implementation process for a new customer. Lead demos, set timelines, run alignment meetings, and advocate internally for any product development needed to deliver an exceptional outcome.\nRequirements\nScientific depth: A meaningful background in chemistry, materials science, biology, chemical engineering, or a closely related field - you should be comfortable discussing experimental design, data types, and R&D workflows with PhD-level researchers\n\nCommunication: Exceptional ability to explain complex ideas clearly to a wide range of audiences - from bench scientists to R&D directors to business leaders\n\nEmpathy and adaptability: The ability to understand not just what a scientist is saying, but what they actually need - and to navigate different organizational cultures and working styles\n\nSoftware fluency: Hands-on comfort working with scientific or technical software - whether that's an ELN, LIMS, instrument control software, data analysis tools (e.g., MATLAB, JMP, or similar), or scripting for data processing. You don't need to be a software engineer, but you should be someone who figures out new tools quickly and isn't intimidated by data-heavy environments\n\nProject orientation: Comfort managing multiple workstreams simultaneously and driving projects to completion in a fast-paced environment\n\nGenuine curiosity about software, data, and how technology can transform R&D\n\nPreferred Qualifications\nM.S. or higher in chemistry, materials science, chemical engineering, biology, or a closely related field, plus 2-3 years of post-degree work experience in research, industry, or a technical customer-facing role\n\nHands-on lab experience - time spent running experiments gives you instant credibility with our customers\n\nExperience in a customer-facing, consulting, or technical role where you had to explain complex scientific concepts to varied audiences\n\nFamiliarity with data management concepts: spreadsheets, databases, ELNs, or LIMS\n\nExposure to multiple scientific domains (e.g., organic chemistry and polymer science, or biotech and formulation)\n\nWhy This Role\nRare career path: This role is designed for scientists who want to apply their expertise in a high-growth technology environment - without leaving science behind. The breadth of domains you'll encounter (coatings, pharma, food science, advanced materials, and more) is unlike anything you'd get in a lab\n\nDirect impact: Your work directly accelerates R&D at organizations developing next-generation products - from sustainable materials to pediatric cancer treatments\n\nCustomer relationships that matter: You'll build real partnerships with brilliant scientists and R&D leaders, not just manage tickets\n\nInternal influence: At our scale, your field experience carries weight in product decisions. You'll see your feedback become features\n\nFast-paced growth: You'll gain fluency across scientific domains, enterprise software, business development, and project management faster than almost any other role\n\nBenefits\nCompetitive base salary with performance bonus and meaningful equity\n\nHealth and dental insurance\n\n401(k) with employer contribution (US locations)\n\nDirect mentorship and rapid career development on a small, high-caliber team","description_format":"text","description_chars":7925,"description_truncated":false,"requirements":{"experience_years_min":2,"management_years_min":null,"team_size_min":null,"manages_managers":false,"education":{"level":"master","optional":false},"security_clearance":false,"languages":[]},"benefits":["Dental insurance","Equity"],"hiring_locations":[],"hiring_excludes":[],"relocation_offered":false,"industries":["Materials Science & Nanotechnology","Industrial AI","AI for Science","Scientific & Lab Software"],"lifecycle":[{"event":"open","at":"2026-09-06T17:09:27Z"}],"visa":[{"country":"US","licensed_sponsor":true,"evidence":"H-1B filings in 12 months: 4","filings_12m":4,"filings_prev_12m":4,"green_card_filings_12m":0,"median_offered_wage_usd":122500,"route":null,"cap_exempt":false,"checked_at":"2026-10-03T21:08:04+00:00","sources":["US Department of Labor: LCA disclosure data (H-1B, H-1B1, E-3)"],"filings_for_role_12m":3}],"liveness":{"score":3,"band":"cold","label":"Long shot","p_open":1,"p_active":0.101,"p_room":0.28,"age_days":452,"expected_fill_days":30,"reasons":["conf:2","stale_co","ghost","win:tail","crowd:junior"],"computed_at":"2026-10-10T05:45:15Z"},"pay":null,"html_url":"https://alion.io/job/uncountable-scientific-implementation-manager","json_url":"https://alion.io/job/uncountable-scientific-implementation-manager.json","meta":{"generated_at":"2026-10-11T03:52:38Z","cache_seconds":300,"methodology":"https://alion.io/methodology","terms":"https://alion.io/terms","contact":"https://alion.io/contact","api":"https://alion.io/developers","about":"Alion is a live layer of people, companies and AI agents: who they are, whether they are real and active right now, what they do and how to work with them, readable by people and by agents and paid per call.","catalog":"https://alion.io/catalog.json","usage":{"tier":"crawler","counted_by":"address","units_charged":1,"used_today":1981,"day_limit":5000,"remaining_today":3019,"minute_limit":60,"resets_at":"2026-10-12T00:00:00Z"}},"offers":[{"id":"company.slices","title":"One company in depth, by slice","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002,"plus_per_slice":{"credits":0.05,"usd":0.005}},"unit":"per company, plus each slice with data","note":"the employer in depth","call":{"mcp_tool":"get_company","arguments":{"id":5212},"rest":"https://alion.io/mcp/rest/get_company?id=5212"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.slices&for=job%2Funcountable-scientific-implementation-manager"},{"id":"market.stats","title":"A market slice: pay, demand and time to fill","status":"live","price":{"credits":1,"usd":0.1},"unit":"per slice","note":"pay, demand and time to fill for this role and place","call":{"mcp_tool":"market_stats"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=market.stats&for=job%2Funcountable-scientific-implementation-manager"},{"id":"job.search","title":"Open jobs by role, technology, place, pay and visa","status":"live","price":{"credits":0.02,"usd":0.002},"unit":"per posting in a list","note":"similar open postings","call":{"mcp_tool":"search_jobs"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=job.search&for=job%2Funcountable-scientific-implementation-manager"},{"id":"company.verify","title":"Is this company real and active right now","status":"pilot","price":null,"unit":"per company","request":{"url":"https://alion.io/catalog/request","method":"POST","body":"{\"offer\": \"company.verify\", \"for\": \"job/uncountable-scientific-implementation-manager\", \"note\": \"what you need it for\"}"},"human":"https://alion.io/catalog?offer=company.verify&for=job%2Funcountable-scientific-implementation-manager"}]}
