Laboratory Technician

Description We are seeking a detail-oriented and highly motivated Chemical Analyst to join our laboratory team. This role involves performing a variety of chemical analyses using both classical (wet chemistry) techniques such as titrations, gravimetric analysis, and pH measurements, as well as modern instrumental methods including GC, FTIR, and ICP. The ideal candidate will support quality control, product development, and process optimization efforts by delivering accurate, timely, and reproducible data. Key Responsibilities: Conduct routine and non-routine chemical analyses on raw materials, in-process samples, and finished products. Perform classical analytical techniques such as: Acid/base and redox titrations (Acid Value, Iodine Value) Gravimetric analyses (Density, Filterable Impurities) pH and moisture determination Operate, calibrate, and maintain laboratory instrumentation, including but not limited to: Gas Chromatography (GC) Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP-OES) Karl Fischer titrators Interpret analytical results and maintain accurate and detailed records in accordance with SOPs and regulatory standards. Assist in method development, validation, and troubleshooting as needed. Ensure compliance with laboratory safety protocols and company policies. Participate in laboratory investigations and contribute to continuous improvement initiatives. Work Environment: Laboratory-based role with routine exposure to chemicals and instrumentation. Requires use of personal protective equipment (PPE). May require occasional evening or weekend work depending on production schedules or project deadlines. Requirements Requirements: Strong foundation in classical chemistry techniques and working knowledge of analytical instrumentation. Familiarity with Good Laboratory Practices (GLP) and standard operating procedures (SOPs). Ability to work independently and as part of a team in a fast-paced environment. Excellent organizational, problem-solving, and communication skills. Bachelor’s degree in chemistry (preferred), biology, chemical engineering, or related field. 3rd shift; 4 days per week, weekend shift - Thursday through Sunday. #J-18808-Ljbffr
