JOB SUMMARY

The R&D Senior Formulator is the company’s highest individual-contributor formulation authority, responsible for architecting and delivering innovation across the full product development lifecycle—from early-stage concept through commercial launch and lifecycle management. This role owns the most technically complex and strategically significant formulation programs, drives platform-level innovation, and serves as the principal scientific resource for cross-functional leadership, key customers, and external partners. The Senior Formulator mentors and elevates the entire R&D team, champions data-driven decision-making and AI-enabled workflows, and shapes the technical direction of the company’s product portfolio. Mastery of formulation science, regulatory compliance, process engineering, and customer-facing technical leadership are all defining expectations of this role. Focus emphasis and development to elevate the company’s nutrition bar business to new levels. This is an onsite/in-office position.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO)

Serve as the primary technical authority for company’s most complex, high-value, and strategically critical formulation programs across all product platforms—nutritional bars (primary focus), soft chews, dragées, and/or pan-coated forms—from concept through commercial scale.
Architect and own comprehensive formulation strategies leveraging expert-level command of water activity control, pH and buffering chemistry, rheology, emulsification, hygroscopicity management, coating science, and multi-component ingredient interaction to deliver products that are stable, consumer-acceptable, and commercially robust at scale.
Design and govern company-wide stability programs: author accelerated and real-time study protocols, develop Arrhenius-based degradation kinetics models and overage strategies, and issue authoritative validation reports with label claim risk assessments for senior leadership and customer stakeholders.

Lead raw material evaluation and substitution strategy at a platform level; anticipate and resolve formulation risks upstream in the development cycle and publish technical guidance documents for use by the broader R&D team.
Own end-to-end pilot and commercial scale-up execution for flagship programs; author complete technical transfer packages, lead manufacturing trials, product costing and cost optimization, resolve scale-dependent process and formulation challenges, and establish critical process parameters that become manufacturing standards.
Review, approve, and champion new product formulas for conversion to Master Manufacturing Records (MMRs); serve as the final technical authority for formula accuracy, compliance, and manufacturing readiness at handoff.
Assume senior project ownership across a portfolio of 25–40 concurrent projects; provide formulation strategy direction across the full pipeline and resolve escalated technical blockers impeding commercialization milestones.
Serve as company’s principal R&D customer-facing Nutritional Bar technical expert; independently lead complex technical discussions, deliver innovation presentations, and build long-term technical relationships with key accounts and prospective customers.
Lead the design, execution, and statistical interpretation of consumer and trained sensory panel studies; translate insights into differentiated formulation solutions and publish panel methodologies for team-wide adoption.
Provide structured mentorship, technical coaching, and career development guidance to R&D Formulator I and II scientists as related to Nutritional Bar development and commercialization; review experimental designs, documentation, and results, and establish formulation best practices across the department.
Drive company’s innovation agenda: lead competitive benchmarking, consumer trend synthesis, and white-space identification; develop and present differentiated innovation proposals and concept prototypes to R&D and Sales leadership.
Dedicate 15–20% of time to proactive, market-driven Nutritional Bar innovation—including platform extensions, novel ingredient evaluation, concept prototyping, value engineering, and internal innovation pipeline development.
Champion and model the use of digital tools, automation, and AI platforms (e.g., Claude) across the R&D function; develop scalable AI-enabled workflows that measurably accelerate speed-to-market, elevate documentation quality, and enhance data-driven decision-making.
Establish and maintain meticulous formulation records and project data within company systems (Monday.com, ERP/MRP, SkuSafe); lead continuous improvement of R&D data architecture, nomenclature standards, and knowledge management practices.
Serve as the department’s primary scout for emerging raw material science, supplier innovations, and ingredient technologies; evaluate, qualify, and introduce novel materials that expand company’s technical platform capabilities and/or deliver cost savings.
Lead and represent R&D in cross-functional collaborations with Regulatory, QA, Procurement, Operations, and Sales on 21 CFR Parts 101 and 111 compliance, third-party certifications (NSF, USP, Informed Sport), novel ingredient safety dossiers, and supply chain risk mitigation.
Provide technical thought leadership and change leadership within R&D; model and advance a culture of scientific rigor, continuous improvement, and organizational accountability.
