Chemist

Must have: BA/BS in Chemistry and 1-2 years experience working in a chemistry R&D manufacturing environment or within a laboratory setting OR MA/MS in Chemistry Must have experience and knowledge in catalysis, organometallics, ligand synthesis or catalysis screening applications is a plus Must be able to pass a background check, drug screen.

As the integral part of our innovation team, the Chemist provides much needed new product development and scale-up capacity for the realization of R&D mission. Under the supervision of a Sr. Scientist (or R&D leaders), the Chemist will contribute to the new chemistry development and scale-up for a reproducible and sustainable production methods and procedures. The Chemist is expected to set a high quality standard for accuracy, in following good laboratory practices, and in complying with all safety regulations. • Maintain knowledge & expertise in technical areas of organic and organometallic chemistry • Engage with internal innovation team in formulating project concepts • Develop hands-on expertise in chemical synthesis, catalysis and Organometallic chemistry • Validate technical prototypes • Document all the innovation work • Support product launch and post-launch follow ups • Create workable and sustainable production solutions • Transfer workable solutions to designated production group • Provide needed technical support to production • Offer technical training to production group as needed • Collaborate with different departments such as safety, quality, sales & marketing to introduce new products & processes • Serve as a technical liaison with the other R&D or technical groups Minimum Qualifications: • B.S. in Chemistry minimum Preferred Qualifications: • Work experience in chemistry R&D or chemical manufacturing is preferred • Experience in chemical synthesis with reasonable knowledge in catalysis, organometallics, ligand synthesis etc. is a plus • Experience with catalysis screening applications is a plus
