Polymer Chemist with Formulation Expertise
Position Overview
We are looking for a creative and hands-on Polymer Chemist with Formulation Expertise to join our growing
team. In this role, you’ll play a key part in developing and optimizing innovative, bio-based formulations for
various applications ranging from coatings, paints, adhesives to cosmetics or even textile.
This is not a routine lab job. You’ll be inventing at the edge of material science—prototyping, testing, and
iterating formulations that push performance boundaries while meeting ambitious sustainability goals. You'll
design and implement chemical strategies to modify and functionalize surfaces, improving compatibility,
stability, and material performance across various end-use systems.
We’re looking for someone who is not only technically excellent, but also thrives in a fast-paced,
entrepreneurial environment. If you're excited by the idea of helping shape the future of sustainable
materials from the ground up, this is your opportunity to make a real impact.
