The platform and people powering Orbital
Orbital's mission it to lead an industrial renaissance to secure the future of physical industries.
To achieve this goal we need a new way of developing hardware from the atoms up. That's why we've built the world's most advanced AI platform for advanced materials design.
Technology development pipeline
By using AI we learn faster and earlier - accelerating from discovery to deployment.
Engineer in-silico, materialize in reality
Design
Our platform solves the inverse design problem autonomously. Instead of just screening, our generative AI functions as a materials engineer, reasoning from first principles to build novel materials that meet precise performance specifications. It doesn't just propose a structure; it co-designs the material and its synthesis pathway simultaneously.
This process is grounded in our multimodal dataset (wet lab, process, performance), allowing the AI to optimize for a complex set of real-world constraints. This integrated system automates the discovery workflow, from in silico design to the synthesis, characterization, and testing of new materials that power our hardware.
Deploy
After design, our engineering team integrates these materials into end-to-end products.
Hardcore AI. Hardcore Engineering.
Orbital is led by a team of scientists, engineers, and industry veterans.
Why our team works at Orbital
"I'm excited to be working at Orbital because I have the opportunity to collaborate with thoughtful teammates pushing forward the boundaries of science and engineering every day!"
"I came to Orbital Materials to work with a uniquely broad collection of world-class talent across diverse backgrounds like machine learning, applications, chemistry and engineering. The Orbital skills inventory turns into a force multiplier when focused on solving challenges for our partners, both internally and externally. Further, we are creating solutions for the energy transition to provide a stable future for generations to come."
"What drives me most is working at the convergence of multiple scientific disciplines. I get to think about materials science from the smallest molecular scale to large commercial deployments, constantly discovering and implementing new ways that AI can accelerate discovery, optimization, and innovation throughout the entire development pipeline."
“I wake up every day with a sense of purpose. It's hard not to when you have founders who care, a team that delivers, and a mission to build AI that matters.”
"Before joining full time, I originally started as a contractor helping develop and commercialize hardware to complement discoveries the team was making and quickly realized the potential of what Orbital was doing in the material sciences field. As an engineer, being able to specify the properties I want instead of designing around the properties I can get is a game changer. They have an incredible and talented team that I am grateful to be a part of."
"I joined Orbital because I wanted to see the real-world impact and transformative potential of AI in computational chemistry and materials science. I was particularly drawn to the opportunity to work at the intersection of diverse disciplines. What keeps it exciting is that every day brings new challenges and collaboration with experts from varied backgrounds, making Orbital a dynamic and rewarding place to work."
