Process Analytical Chemist


Job Overview:

The Dow Chemical Company, a leader in science and technology, providing innovative chemical, plastic and agricultural products and services has an opening for a process analytical chemist in its Analytical Sciences Laboratory located in Freeport, TX. The job will require broad problem solving capabilities through the use of short term on-line analyzers. Projects will be in both manufacturing plants and R&D environments where analyzers will be installed to collect data in support of production and R&D issues. This role has a strong "hands on" component. Rapid response time to client needs with "just in time" delivery of the analytical solutions using on-line and off-line chromatographic, spectroscopic, and wet chemical techniques is expected. The applicant will need to manage multiple short term projects in parallel. Travel may be required depending on the project location, but is expected to be minimal.

Details:

In order to rapidly develop and implement on-line analyzers for resolution of production and R&D issues, the successful candidate will need to have a working knowledge of a variety of analytical techniques to select the best analysis for the problem. (i.e. GC, MS, optical and infrared spectroscopy, moisture, oxygen, grab samples, on-line sampling) and will obtain help from the appropriate subject matter experts in analytical sciences as necessary. At times it will be necessary to partner with analyzer engineers and researchers for feasibility testing of new analytical technologies.

Typical project tasks will include:

1. Review client request, define project scope to determine if an on-line or off-line analytical solution will help solve the problem. Assist client in reviewing the project to make sure the problem is well understood and the needs and value are defined. 2. Develop an analytical plan for the project with expected timelines and required resources. 3. Build and install the complete analytical system including the sample system, the analyzer, and data system 4. Perform the appropriate prestart-up and safety reviews. 5. Monitor the analytical equipment and method to confirm proper operation and provide data interpretation. 6. Finalize project and remove equipment. Document results in a timely fashion.

Minimum Requirements

Must have expertise in analytical method development, and the ability to deliver solutions to complex problems across technologies, functions, and businesses.

Must be able to translate client problems into analytical solutions. Work with client to understand the value of the project to aid in prioritizing work.

Need to consider new and innovative approaches to solve client problems, especially with regards to instrumentation, sampling, and data collection.

Self-driven with good interpersonal skills. Must be able to recognize opportunities and interact directly with clients to deliver effective solutions. Good prioritization and time management skills are critical to success in this role.

Must be able to work effectively as a team member in a self-directed team environment to produce quality results and aid in the achievement of team goals.

Effectively communicate project status, time lines, and results to the clients.

Continually seeks opportunity to learn new analytical techniques. Proactively apply problem-solving skills across multiple businesses
