Lead bench-top formulation development, raw material evaluation, and technical feasibility assessments of novel ingredients, pigments and formulation technologies.
Conduct formulation studies, analyze experimental data, interpret results, and develop data-driven recommendations with minimal supervision.
Lead pilot plant and manufacturing trials, optimizing process parameters to ensure successful commercialization and consistent product quality for color products
Troubleshoot formulation and manufacturing challenges related to emulsion stability, viscosity, pigment dispersion, aeration, filling, process scale-up, preservation systems, and long-term product stability.
Develop product specifications, and technical documentation to ensure product quality, compliance, and reproducibility.
Collaborate closely with Manufacturing, Operations, Quality, Regulatory, Procurement, Supply Chain and external partners to support new product development and commercialization.
Provide technical leadership and mentorship to junior scientists and laboratory personnel.
Serve as a technical representative on cross-functional project teams and support customer-facing technical discussions when needed.
Maintain accurate laboratory records and technical documentation in accordance with Good Laboratory Practices (GLP), GMP requirements, and company standards.
Stay current on industry trends, emerging technologies, competitive products, ingredient innovations, manufacturing processes, and regulatory developments within the color cosmetics and skincare categories.

Strong knowledge of emulsion systems, rheology modification, preservation systems, bulk stability, and formulation troubleshooting.

Preferred Skills and Qualifications:

Advanced degrees (e.g., Master’s or Ph.D.) in a relevant scientific or technical field
Experience with regulated products (e.g., OTC drugs, medical devices)
Experience managing or mentoring junior scientists
Familiarity with digital formulation tools, lab management systems, or innovation platforms
