R&D Executive Job Details

Company: Innoleague Technologies India Pvt Ltd

Location: Mumbai, Maharashtra, India

Role Description: This R&D Executive job is a full-time on-site role for a Research and Development Executive based in Thane, Kalyan or Dombivali who can commute regularly to our lab based in Sonale Village, Mumbai Nashik Highway Thane District.

This role involves leading and delivering the Encapsulated Fasteners development programme, combining hands-on formulation expertise in epoxy resin and hardener systems with end-to-end R&D project management responsibilities. The ideal candidate will have a solid foundation in reactive polymer chemistry and the ability to independently drive a complex, multi-phase development project from concept through to commercial readiness and rollout.

Encapsulated fasteners demand precision in formulation and application performance. The candidate will own this project technically and organizationally, coordinating with raw material suppliers, production, quality, and commercial teams.

We will also develop Formaldehyde Free & Biodegradable Encapsulation System.

Eligibility Criteria

  • B.Tech / B.Sc. / M.Sc. / M.Tech in Polymer Science, Chemistry, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Paint & Coatings Technology, or equivalent.
  • 3–5 years of hands-on R&D experience in epoxy formulation, adhesives, sealants, coatings, or reactive polymer systems.
  • Proven ability to independently design, execute, and document formulation development experiments.
  • Experience with epoxy resin chemistry — resin and hardener selection, stoichiometry, cure mechanism, and structure-property relationships.
  • Familiarity with performance testing of adhesive or sealant systems — mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance characterization.
  • Working knowledge of analytical instruments — DSC, TGA, rheometer, viscometer, particle size analyser.
  • Strong project planning and organizational skills — ability to manage timelines, prioritize tasks, and report progress clearly.
  • Manage own time and prioritize project management in a fast-paced role with timelines and deadlines.

Preferred Skills

  • Prior experience in microencapsulation technology is NOT required as that expertise exists in-house.
  • Exposure to fastener, automotive, aerospace, or industrial assembly applications is preferred but not necessary.
  • Knowledge of threadlocking, thread sealing, or retaining compound products (e.g., analogous to Loctite/Henkel product categories).
  • Familiarity with DIN/ISO fastener testing standards — torque-tension, vibration resistance, and chemical resistance protocols.
  • Experience in technology transfer and scale-up from lab to pilot/production scale.
  • Exposure to regulatory submissions and customer approval documentation for industrial adhesive or fastener products.
  • Proficiency in data analysis tools — Excel-based DOE (Design of Experiments) or equivalent statistical tools.
  • If not having this exposure, willing to learn from Directors, internet and publicly available literature.

Key Competencies

  • Technical ownership — takes full accountability for formulation decisions and project outcomes.
  • Structured problem-solving — approaches formulation challenges systematically.
  • Project discipline — manages timelines rigorously, flags risks early.
  • Cross-functional collaboration — works effectively with production, quality, procurement, and commercial teams.
  • Customer-focus — translates application performance requirements into precise formulation targets.
  • Scientific curiosity — stays current with developments in epoxy chemistry, encapsulation technology, and fastener applications.
  • Communication — articulates complex technical findings clearly in written reports and verbal presentations.
  • Learning ability — always willing to push the boundaries by analysing practical results and using science in literature judiciously.
