Chemist

Responsibilities

• Laboratory Analysis Testing:
• Perform routine and non-routine chemical tests and analyses on raw materials, in-process samples, and finished products using various analytical techniques and instrumentation (e.g., HPLC, GC, UV-Vis, Karl Fischer, Titration, pH meter, FTIR specify relevant instruments ).
• Conduct quantitative and qualitative analyses to determine composition, purity, and other chemical properties.
• Ensure all tests are performed accurately, efficiently, and in accordance with standard operating procedures ( SOPs ).
• Quality Control Assurance:
• Monitor product quality at various stages of production to ensure compliance with established specifications and quality standards.
• Identify deviations, out-of-specification results, and non-conformities, and report them promptly.
• Participate in root cause analysis for quality issues and support corrective and preventive actions ( CAPA ).
• Method Development Validation (if applicable):
• Develop, optimize, and validate new analytical methods for testing various substances.
• Verify the accuracy, precision, and robustness of existing analytical methods.
• Instrumentation Maintenance Calibration:
• Perform basic maintenance and calibration of laboratory instruments to ensure their optimal performance and accuracy.
• Troubleshoot instrument malfunctions and coordinate with service engineers for repairs.
• Documentation Reporting:
• Accurately record all experimental data, observations, and results in lab notebooks and designated systems.
• Prepare detailed analytical reports, certificates of analysis (CoA), and summaries of findings.
• Maintain organized laboratory records and documentation for audit purposes.
• Safety Compliance:
• Strictly adhere to all laboratory safety protocols, chemical handling procedures, and waste disposal guidelines.
• Ensure compliance with Good Laboratory Practices ( GLP ), Good Manufacturing Practices ( GMP if applicable in pharma/food), and other relevant regulatory requirements ( e.g., ISO standards ).
• Maintain a clean and organized laboratory workspace.
• Research Development Support (if applicable for RD roles):
• Assist in research projects, experimental design, and data interpretation for new product development or process improvement.
