- Apply fundamental engineering principles in polymer, fluid, and solid-state processes to gain insight into process phenomena.
- Collaborate with engineering technicians to execute experimental plans and material production campaigns.
- Develop standard operating procedures (SOP's) and other written procedures and maintain accurate records of work performed.
- Apply analytical techniques to characterize raw materials, intermediates, and end product to guide process optimization and set product specifications.
- Utilize basic project management skills to communicate timelines, identify roadblocks, and when needed escalate issues to key stakeholders.
- Promote a culture of safety in the lab and office spaces of the company. Respect others in the workplace with a professional attitude; be considerate of others with housekeeping, shared equipment.

Requirements:
- Bachelor's Degree or higher in a scientific field such as chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, chemistry, materials science, or equivalent work experience.
- Advanced Degree and/or - 7 years experience in optimizing 'product-by-process' methods from the lab (100 grams - 1 kg) to pilot scale (multiple kg's).
- Collaborated and coordinated internal and external experimental trials to develop an overarching manufacturing strategy.

Preferred Experience:
- Applying DOE and statistical analysis to process development
- Working with inorganic materials and solids processing equipment (milling, spray drying, annealing)
- Experience applying basic solids characterization techniques to understand process effects (e.g. particle size analysis, tap density, surface area, etc.)

Employee Benefits:
- Generous vacation accrual with 8-day closure at the end of the year
- Full health insurance coverage with low employee out of pocket premiums
- 401k with company paid match
- Annual bonus
- A company culture that values positivity, meritocracy, collaboration, openness, and innovation
