Major Research Areas
PACKAGING & DEVICE DEVELOPMENT
Create and improve packages and devices that delight consumers and retailers. You will learn one or more core packaging technologies (ISBM, EMB, Cartons, Flexibles, Corrugate, Decoration, Injection Molding, etc.).
PRODUCTS RESEARCH
Deeply understand our consumers and their needs to inform product design parameters for new or improved products. You will conduct research in laboratories, consumer homes, etc. to meet day-to-day project needs as directed by your manager/technical coach.
ANALYTICAL
Use lab equipment to solve tough technical problems via chemical, physical, mechanical, imaging, and other measurement capabilities. You will be responsible for performing established methods and test procedures utilizing a variety of instrumentation to deliver accurate and reproducible results to meet day-to-day project needs.
PRODUCT FORMULATION & DESIGN
Translate consumer needs into finished products that delight consumers, using the best available technologies, checmicals, and materials. You will be responsible for performing established product formulation, material development and specifications and execute experiment orders (EOs) test procedures and produce reliable, reproducible results.
PROCESS DEVELOPMENT & PILOT PLANT OPERATIONS
Translate ideas, concepts, and technologies into commercially feasible chemical and mechanical processes, and scale them up from lab to pilot plant to manufacturing. You will work seamlessly with other multi-functional groups to enable the best use of our pilot plant assets (e.g. small- and large-scale product making equipment, scales, etc…).
