 Our Core New Product Development (C-NPD) team is at the heart of this innovation, developing breakthrough packaging solutions that reduce waste and meet evolving consumer needs.

 </strong>
 We are seeking a curious and motivated Staff Materials Scientist to join our Core New Product Development (C-NPD) team as a Technical Lead. The role is focused on formulation development and product innovation for water-soluble packaging solutions, helping to meet unmet needs on laundry, autodish, and related applications.
 <br/>
 <br/>
 This position blends hands-on experimental work with project leadership; you will lead cross-functional development teams, own technical customer relationships, and translate experimental results into innovative, commercializable products. Unlike roles in polymer synthesis, this position emphasizes application of existing polymers, blends, and conversion processes into new solutions.

  <li>
   Design and execute experiments to explore film formulation, structure-property relationships and converting processes.

  <li>
   Apply advanced data analysis and modeling tools (Python, JMP, MATLAB) to interpret complex results and accelerate development.
  </li>
  <li>
   Guide cross-functional teams in evaluating new materials and processes, ensuring technical rigor and alignment with customer needs.
  </li>
  <li>
   Communicate technical results and recommendations effectively to internal leadership and customer stakeholders.

   Monitor and coach junior scientists, strengthening the company&rsquo;s innovation capability.

   Stay current with external trends in materials, packaging, and sustainability to inform innovation strategy.
