    Position Overview

    The Chemist role will contribute to the applied research and development group at Numat.

In applied R&D, this individual will shepherd new technology through stages 1 and 2 (out of 5) of Numat's stage-gate process. This role will require interfacing with the Director of R&D and the Product Development Manager to identify and fully characterize materials for new products. Once materials are identified, this individual will seamlessly transition efforts to the engineering team for manufacturing. Expect significant ownership of projects with freedom to explore, design, and evaluate adsorbent materials. This role reports directly to the Product Development Manager.

    • Assist in the development of technology transfer packages for pilot-scale evaluation (operation procedures, quality gates, etc.)

    • Maintain knowledge of relevant QSR and safety requirements while building knowledge of other regulatory requirements related to R&D (product development, design, and safety) to ensure compliance in all research, data collection and reporting activities
    • Assist in the development of data packages to support business and commercial teams in product commercialization

    • Excellent problem-solving skills required; involving critical thinking, decision-making, creativity, and information processing. To be successful in the role, candidates must be able to effectively identify issues along with solutions, implement those solutions and evaluate their effectiveness
