Analytical Chemist-- GOEDC

We are looking for a chemist who is a team player with a solutions-oriented mindset. The chemist will join a team researching and developing lithographic materials for advanced patterning solutions. This is a laboratory-based technical role focused on synthesis of organic compounds and polymers.

• Conduct synthesis of organic compounds and polymers at laboratory scale through several hundred grams.
• Use analytical tests to facilitate effective process development, characterize products and ensure final product quality.
• Document experiments and help in the preparation of technology transfer packages.
• Maintaining full compliance with all departmental and site-specific Health, Safety, Environmental and Quality regulations, systems, and procedures covering laboratory activities.
• Maintain material database, inventory database and order chemical reagents from suppliers.

• A B.S. or B.A. in Chemistry, preferably from an ACS (American Chemical Society) accredited program.
• A thorough understanding of organic chemistry at the undergraduate level.
• Experience with general laboratory techniques such as column chromatography, distillation, filtration, recrystallization, and scale‑up.
• The ability to independently perform analysis of compounds and reaction mixtures using common methods such as NMR, LCMS, GCMS, IR, TLC.
• Versatility in common IT applications (Microsoft office).
• Excellent organizational skills and accuracy in experimental documentation.
• Good communications and presentation skills.
• Must have hands on experience with synthetic organic chemistry.
• Experience with polymerization techniques is preferred.
• Has the ability to evaluate safety risks and reactivity concerns in multigram scale multistep organic synthesis.
• Must be highly detail-oriented and organized.
• Can work both independently and as a team player with a positive attitude.
• Will develop time management strategies to ensure work is performed within required timelines.
