Polymer Chemist Analytics

Your mission

Join aevoloop, one of Europe’s fast-scaling deep-tech startups, and help build pioneering next-generation plastics.

• Characterize aevoloop’s novel polyester-based plastics with regard to their mechanical, thermal and processing properties as a core contribution to our product development.

• Take end-to-end responsibility for polymer characterization on a multi-hundred-gram scale, including method development, equipment maintenance, sample preparation, measurements, data evaluation and feedback loops for material optimization.

• Improve and automate measurement workflows and data interpretation to increase efficiency, robustness and throughput of material analytics.

• Collaborate closely with R&D and Business Development to design creative and application-oriented tests for real-world use cases.

• Compile and maintain SOPs and safety documentation to ensure a safe and compliant laboratory environment.

• You bring advanced expertise in polymer chemistry, particularly polyesters and polyamides
  , gained through a PhD in polymer chemistry, chemistry or a related field. Industrial experience is a strong plus.

• You have hands‑on experience in polymer characterization, especially of thermoplastics; experience with injection molding and extrusion processes is beneficial.

• You are deeply familiar with analytical and characterization methods such as DSC, TGA, NMR, mechanical testing (e.g. tensile testing, impact strength, HDT) as well as weathering and hydrolytic stability assessments.

• You communicate confidently in English, both written and spoken;
  German language skills are advantageous.

• You combine a hands‑on mindset with a structured way of working and enjoy collaborating across disciplines in a fast‑paced startup environment.

• Real Impact: Help redesign plastics for a truly circular economy.
• Startup Mindset: Flat hierarchies, fast decisions and early responsibility as we scale.
• Team Culture: Join a team of curious minds that challenge each other, collaborate openly and celebrate progress together.
• Growth & Learning: Steep learning curves, regular feedback and room to grow with the company.
• Well-being Perks – Hansefit membership and fresh fruit boost your overall health and well‑being.
