Maintain laboratory equipment, calibration records, inventory, chemical storage, and safety procedures to ensure a safe and compliant work environment.
Ensure laboratory records remain accurate, organized, and audit-ready, including test data, formulation files, and supporting documentation.
Oversee sample labeling, retention, tracking, and testing activities to maintain traceability and support quality and customer requirements.
Apply established testing methods, stability protocols, and laboratory best practices to evaluate product performance and reliability.
Lead hands-on liquid formulation work, including product-development trials, sample preparation, testing, and development of product specifications.
Evaluate raw materials and alternative ingredients for performance, quality, cost, and compatibility with existing formulas and packaging.
Coordinate approved formulations through laboratory development and transfer to manufacturing, ensuring smooth scale-up and production readiness.
Maintain and improve existing formulas based on performance data, quality feedback, cost considerations, and customer requirements.
Document formulation trials, technical findings, and recommended next steps in a clear and organized manner for internal stakeholders.
Identify opportunities to improve manufacturability, material utilization, product quality, and overall cost across the product portfolio.
Assess technical feasibility of new and existing projects and communicate development risks, limitations, and required trade-offs.
Build realistic development plans and target dates for samples, testing, pilot runs, and production readiness in coordination with cross-functional teams.
Support technical reviews, product transfers, manufacturing trials, and product launches by providing clear formulation and process guidance.
Provide technical input regarding formulations, specifications, project scope, and development timelines to internal and external stakeholders.
Participate in customer and supplier discussions when technical expertise is required, representing the laboratory and development function.
Communicate project progress, delays, constraints, and required decisions to internal stakeholders in a timely and transparent manner.
Coordinate formulation or specification changes with quality and other business teams, maintaining appropriate approvals and documentation.
Troubleshoot formulation and product-performance issues related to batching, blending, filling, and raw materials during pilot runs and production trials.
Support process scale-up, manufacturing instructions, and first-production activities by providing on-site technical guidance and analysis.
Contribute technical analysis to investigations, deviations, corrective actions, and rework decisions to resolve production and quality issues.
Identify opportunities to improve yield, reduce waste, and prevent recurring production issues through root-cause analysis and process improvements.
Document observations and lessons learned from initial production runs to strengthen future technical transfers and manufacturing robustness.
Maintain controlled formulation records, product specifications, revision histories, and supporting technical documentation in accordance with internal standards.
Ensure formulation data is accurately entered and maintained within business systems, including ERP, formulation-management, or laboratory information systems.
Prepare and review manufacturing instructions, technical data sheets, safety documentation, and related laboratory records for internal and external use.
Support quality activities involving customer documentation, complaints, audits, and applicable regulatory requirements for products and processes.
Maintain appropriate version control, traceability, and approvals for formulation changes and product updates.
Implement laboratory process improvements and identify material-standardization or cost-saving opportunities to enhance efficiency and consistency.

35+ years of experience in formulation, product development, research and development, or chemical manufacturing.
Hands-on experience with liquid formulations, including laboratory testing, technical troubleshooting, and manufacturing scale-up.
Experience coordinating laboratory activities or providing day-to-day technical leadership within a lab environment.
Strong technical documentation skills, with the ability to prepare clear and accurate records, specifications, and reports.
Excellent organizational skills, with the ability to manage multiple projects, priorities, and deadlines simultaneously.
Effective communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to cross-functional teams and external partners.
Strong problem-solving abilities, with a structured approach to troubleshooting formulation and manufacturing issues.
