Job Description
We are seeking a highly accomplished and proficient Polymer Science graduate to join our RD team. The ideal candidate will possess expertise in polymer chemistry, materials characterization, and polymer processing, with a passion for driving innovation in sustainable plastic solutions. This role will be instrumental in supporting new product development and feedstock characterization across diverse applications, while strengthening Banyan Nation s position as a leader in sustainable plastic recycling and material innovation.
- Contribute to RD initiatives aimed at designing, synthesizing, and optimizing polymer materials to meet targeted property requirements for specific applications.
- Lead mechanical and rheological testing efforts in compliance with established characterization techniques.
- Ensure on-time, in-full (OTIF) testing for RD trials to accelerate project outcomes.
- Formalize and maintain a comprehensive recipe database by mapping testing data from all in-house, converter, and client trials, essential for scaling up and supporting future MIS integration.
- Support the development of an in-house PCR Calculator for new grade development, crucial for collaborating with polymer partners on material outcomes.
- Manage Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for RD and Quality testing interfaces, including for GC-MS, DSC, TGA, colour measurement, and rheology testing.
- Build and maintain a repository of material defects and corresponding solution guidelines, to later serve as technical case studies for client presentations.
- Oversee regulatory compliance checks, AMC of lab equipment, and manage documentation such as TDS, CoA, and MSDS SOPs
- Technical Proficiency: Strong foundation in mechanical testing, thermal analysis, and spectroscopy. Familiarity with material characterization techniques, including FTIR, DSC, TGA, and GC-MS is beneficial.
- Industry Insights: Understanding of both the recycling and virgin plastics industries, with emphasis on polymer synthesis, formulation, and sustainable material development.
- Analytical Skills: Ability to design, conduct, and analyse experimental data, providing clear, actionable insights.
- Collaboration and Communication: Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to collaborate effectively across multidisciplinary teams
- Bachelor s/Master s degree from CIPET, or equivalent institutions may be considered for candidates with substantial relevant experience.
- 2-3 years of proven work experience within a relevant industry, ideally within polymer research and development.
