Associate scientist - spectroscopy
We are currently seeking an Associate scientist spectroscopy for one of our clients in Canton of Aargau.
This is a temporary contract for one year.
The successful candidate will bring enthusiasm for working in a R&D environment and sound experience in developing, optimizing, performing, and evaluating applied optical spectroscopy experiments.
Main field of application will be in chemical process development. Responsibilities include maintaining and troubleshooting the equipment in our optical spectroscopy lab, independent multivariate data analysis and presentation of the results to our key stakeholders.
As part of a global team, the successful candidate will work in close collaboration with other scientists in interdisciplinary teams as an expert in the area and will have an impact on innovation projects, but also for marketing and production support.
Your responsibilities:
Independent planning & execution of laboratory experiments (on- and off-line) with optical spectroscopy (UV/VIS, IR, NIR, RAMAN) according to defined expectations and in a timely manner. Data management according to FAIR data standards.
Taking care of maintenance and qualification of assigned lab equipment including laboratory safety and documentation.
Building and maintaining a data platform for the optical spectroscopy lab, extend in later phase to other technologies (SEM, TEM, XRD data).
Reporting of results and protocols to internal customers.
Extension of analyses into either LC or GC depending on prior expertise and project needs.
Your profile:
A Master OR Bachelor of Science degree with at least 5 years of relevant work experience in an RD environment.
Hands-on experience in troubleshooting, development, and model validation of optical spectroscopy techniques (UV, IR, RAMAN). Knowledge in complementary fields such as microscopies (SEM, TEM) and/or X-ray techniques (XRD) are a pre.
Sound experience in statistics, (multivariate) data analysis, visualization and management (e.g. Origin, matlab, Python, R, FAIR).
Experience with computerized lab environments (LIMS, CDS, electronic lab notebook, scientific databases, etc.).
Experience in additional analytical techniques, especially GC or LC for quantitative analysis.
Knowledge of reaction monitoring of organic reactions in an industry environment.
Open-minded personality and ability to shine in a cross-functional environment.
Strong team player with self-organizing skills and an independent way of working.
Proficient command of English; German is a plus.
