Mya Le Thai has worked for five different companies since 2010. In 2010, they were an Undergraduate Researcher at UCLA, where they researched synthesis, purification, and characterization of a new class of direct formation of self-synthesizing metal alloy nanoparticles. Mya also successfully developed new strategies for the purification process, and designed experiments to eliminate variability between syntheses of nanoparticle products. From 2011 to 2015, they were a Graduate Researcher at UC Irvine, where they explored energy storage capacity and degradation mechanism of nanomaterial such as MnO2 that charge and discharge rapidly while producing the highest possible energy density. Mya also designed new nanostructure, and polymeric battery electrolyte material to increase the battery life cycle to hundreds of thousand cycles without degradation while maintaining the high capacitance. In 2015, they were a Student and Postdoc Committee at the Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) - Department of Energy. From 2017 to 2019, they were a Process Engineer at Intel Corporation, and from 2019 to present they have been a Principal Scientist and Senior Scientist at Enevate Corporation.

Mya Le Thai attended UC Irvine from 2011 to 2016, where they earned a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Physical Chemistry. Prior to that, they attended the University of California, Los Angeles from an unknown start date to 2011, where they earned a Bachelor of Science (BS) in Chemistry.
