LiquiGlide is an exciting, fast-growing start-up whose mission is to fundamentally alter interfaces between liquids and solids to eliminate waste, save lives, and enable a new engineering paradigm. Originally developed at MIT, LiquiGlide’s technology platform enables custom-design of slippery coatings for endless applications—packaging, medical devices, and manufacturing.

We will bring about a greener, safer, more efficient world. LiquiGlide® has won a variety of innovation awards and been featured on CNN, NBC, ABC News, BBC, and Fox News, as well in The New York Times, and we are working with some of the largest and most successful businesses across many industries.

Do you have a passion for developing and commercializing revolutionary technology, either in a

start-up or as part of a new product group? Do you have an advanced degree and a strong

background in medical devices, biomaterials, polymer science, microbiology, or bio-interfacial

phenomena?

LiquiGlide has raised $40 million in funding and is expanding its team to commercialize its slippery

coating technology. The Biomedical Coating Engineer will work with teams to develop liquid-

impregnated surface (LIS) coatings for medical devices and biological applications.
