**** Scientist, Milling Science and Technology - Decatur, IL
***
* Position Summary:

** Our Milling and Grain Quality Team is looking for an experienced scientist to enhance ADM's grain and oilseed processing capabilities.

This position will work simultaneously across multiple projects in support of operational needs, customer care, performance excellence, and growth projects supporting ADM's milling business units.

This role will be responsible for understanding business needs and aligning appropriate levels of technical work to meet those needs at the laboratory and pilot levels and will provide support for plant trials and gathering of plant samples.

The holder of this position will be expected to develop experimental designs, execute those designs, analyze and report the results in a clear and concise manner. This position will provide daily management of the milling laboratory, equipment maintenance, safety reviews and lab supply procurement, and mentor technical staff via training and executing experiments. Interdepartmental interactions and networking with technical leaders and staff are required.

Understanding and communication of experimental results to operational and business importance and application of experiments to the business environment is desired. Occasional domestic travel to other ADM locations will be required.

Previous experience in laboratory or piloting experimental design and execution for new product development or process optimization is highly desired; a good understanding of laboratory equipment and maintenance, methodology, and laboratory safety are highly desirable. Cereal science, protein chemistry, starch chemistry and food applications experience is desirable. This position will be focused primarily on laboratory scale work, but the position will be expected to sometimes work in an industrial plant environment and assist with piloting scaleup demonstration of experiments.
** Responsibilities:
*** Partner with Research project teams to identify, develop, and implement new grain and oilseeds processing technologies for new products and processes, process improvements, and troubleshooting to deliver best in class solutions before commercialization
* Lead where appropriate as an individual contributor and team member on matrix projects
* Evaluate production processes and develop the best methods for scale-down parameters and pilot testing required to make process changes that increase yield, purity, and/or capacity
* Design experiments for laboratory and piloting trials, collect and organize data, interpret data
* Write detailed reports and prepare comprehensive presentations and communicate at all levels of the organization
* Prepare mass balances of new or existing technologies to understand scale up/scale down
* Collaborate with plant engineers, vendors, and contractors to identify scale-up risks and then develop methods to mitigate
* Provide technical support to existing facilities
* Support pilot trials in industrial environments
* Work with subject matter experts and managers to ensure technical work is done with sound, scientific methods to provide high quality…
