Senior PhD Chemist

We are seeking a highly qualified PhD Chemist with a Chemist undergrad degree, and a strong experimental background and a proven ability to translate academic expertise into industrial and enzyme process scale-up environments. Aunque la experiencia profesional y las cualificaciones son clave para este puesto, asegúrese de comprobar si posee las habilidades interpersonales preferibles antes de solicitar, si se requieren. The ideal candidate brings extensive and proven hands-on experience with GC-MS, along with a strong commitment to analytical rigor and data quality. This role offers the opportunity to lead analytical and/or process chemistry activities in the disruptive field of enzymatic plastic depolymerization, contributing to high-impact, large-scale projects in a fast-paced, industrial-driven company. Why Join Us You will join @Entzimatiko, a dynamic and multidisciplinary team at the forefront of enzymatic innovation. Your work will directly support the development of sustainable, high-performance industrial bioprocesses. Together with @INZU Group, we foster a collaborative, growth-oriented culture, offer competitive compensation, and provide the opportunity to help shape the future of sustainable bio-based plastic recycling. Must-Have Technical Requirements PhD in Chemistry Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry Strong hands-on experience in experimental chemistry and with an industrial mindset We will consider two technical profiles, both requiring a strong practical and applied orientation: 1.
