The Company:
Combining chemistry and AI to revolutionize polymer discovery
Are you passionate, talented and thriving in a collaborative environment?
Are you passionate about the future of materials through cutting-edge chemistry and AI?
Listgrove’s client is a pioneering startup, that is revolutionizing the discovery and synthesis of new polymer materials by combining an innovative, patented polymer synthesis process with state-of-the-art AI algorithms. Accelerating their development will enable groundbreaking innovations and contribute to sustainable development.
The Role:
Work Environment:
We are looking for exceptional profiles to join its dynamic team in Bordeaux, offering you a unique opportunity to work on breakthrough innovations that will revolutionize polymer discovery.
Here is what awaits you:
Rewarding work: Take on complex challenges at the cutting edge of chemistry and artificial intelligence.
Cutting-edge technology: Be at the heart of revolutionary platform and shape the future of materials.
Collaborative environment: Work alongside talented, passionate colleagues who share your passion for innovation.
Responsibilities:
As a Polymer Synthesis Technician you will be in charge of:
Organic synthesis: Carry out organic syntheses (monomers, intermediates, functional reagents) according to established protocols, including purification and isolation steps (column chromatography, recrystallization, distillation).
Polymer synthesis: Synthesize polymers according to established protocols and prepare the samples needed for analyses and R&D projects.
Laboratory techniques: Apply standard synthesis techniques, including under inert atmosphere (Schlenk line, glovebox).
Monitoring and control: Follow the progress of reactions and perform routine analytical checks (NMR, chromatography, spectroscopy, SEC) in order to interpret the results.
Process optimization: Take part in optimizing synthesis processes in close collaboration with the R&D team.
Equipment management: Ensure the proper operation, upkeep and routine maintenance of laboratory equipment.
Scientific reporting: Write laboratory notebooks, technical reports and rigorous experimental summaries.
Laboratory life: Contribute to the overall smooth running of the R&D site (maintenance follow-up, mandatory inspections, management of reagent stocks and waste, compliance with safety rules).
The Candidate:
Desired Profile:
Education: Bac+2 / Bac+3 (BTS, DUT, professional bachelor’s degree or bachelor’s degree) in chemistry, organic chemistry, materials, polymers or an equivalent field.
Experience: 10 years of experience in a synthesis laboratory (organic and/or polymers), through internship, work-study program or employment.
Skills:
Synthesis: Mastery of organic synthesis and/or polymer synthesis techniques (essential).
Analysis: Good knowledge of physicochemical analysis methods and laboratory tools (chromatography, spectroscopy, etc.).
Rigor and reporting: Proficiency with scientific writing and reporting tools.
Personal qualities: Scientific rigor, autonomy, team spirit, strict compliance with safety instructions, and the ability to work in a laboratory environment.
