Exposure to stage-gate or structured innovation/product development systems
Interest or experience integrating sustainability targets (e.g., recyclability, bio-based content, durability)

Preferred Education and Experience

M.S. preferred in Polymer Science, Materials Science, Chemistry, or a related field (Ph.D. or advanced degree also valued)
Bachelor’s degree considered with strong, hands-on industry experience
5+ years of experience developing and commercializing thermoplastic polymer compounds/masterbatches for transportation markets (e.g., automotive, aerospace, defense, recreational, utility vehicles)

Bring your formulation expertise and commercialization mindset to a role built for real ownership—apply today to help deliver the next wave of transportation materials from lab to market.
