- Formulation optimization
- Performance prediction
- Product stability and robustness
- Quality improvement
- Design and support experiments (DOE) to efficiently generate data for model development and validation.
- Collaborate closely with R&D scientists, chemists, and product developers to guide formulation strategies and decision-making.
- Develop data-driven insights and digital tools to reduce development cycle time and improve success rates.
- Ensure model validity through proper validation, uncertainty quantification, and alignment with domain knowledge.
- Document methodologies, assumptions, and modeling workflows to support reproducibility and knowledge sharing.
- Contribute to development of reusable modeling frameworks and best practices for data-driven product innovation.
Eligibility Criteria
- PhD or Master’s degree in Chemical Engineering, Materials Science, Mechanical Engineering, Data Science, or a related field.
- For Master’s candidates, minimum 3+ years of industry experience required; experience in downstream, chemical, or materials/product development environments is strongly preferred.
- Strong preference for candidates with experience in:
- Formulation modeling or property prediction
- Hybrid modeling applied to product or material performance
Required Skills
- Strong foundation in hybrid modeling, integrating domain knowledge (chemistry, formulations, materials behavior) with statistical and machine learning approaches.
- Experience applying modeling to product development, formulation optimization, and performance prediction.
- Solid understanding of experimental data (lab, pilot, and field) and how to incorporate it into predictive models.
- Proficiency in Python or other programing languages for data analysis, modeling, and automation.
- Experience with time-series and experimental datasets related to product performance, stability, and quality.
- Demonstrated ability to translate complex modeling results into insights that guide product design and development decisions.
- Strong communication skills and ability to collaborate with scientists, chemists, and product developers.
- Familiarity with SQL and modern data platforms (Databricks, Azure, AWS, Snowflake) is a plus.
