Key Responsibilities

  • In this role, you will perform shear and extensional rheological characterization of a large variety of liquid personal care products including lotions, topical oils, and more. We will explore innovative and emerging methods of rheological characterization and analyzing rheological data to extract material parameters to build a database of materials. Working with our industrial partner we will establish an understanding of rheological properties that are useful for product formulation and process design related to lab and larger scale extrusion/dispensing applications.More specific responsibilities include:
    • Participate in and manage the research project with Principal Investigator (PI), and the research team members to ensure all project deliverables are met.
    • Undertake development of rheological protocols and characterization of liquid personal care products
    • Formulate model materials with various additives to understand their impact on product rheology
    • Design, execute, and interpret experiments independently and with support from the PI.
    • Prepare and deliver written articles, reports, and presentations for industrial partners and external audiences.
    • Attend and present at regular group meetings to receive feedback on work done and future plans
    • Carry out Risk Assessment, and ensure compliance with Work, Safety and Health Regulations.
    • Coordinate procurement and liaison with vendors/suppliers.
    • Work independently, as well as within a team.

Job Requirements

  • Have relevant competence in the areas of rheological characterization and analysis, wet lab work, material formulation
  • Have a degree in pharmaceutical engineering, chemical engineering, mechanical engineering, food or materials science/engineering, or a related field. Possessing a Master’s degree will be advantageous.
  • Knowledge of any of the following will be advantageous: material dispensing/extrusion processing, material science, textural and sensory analysis

Key Competencies

  • Able to build and maintain strong working relationships with people within and external to the university.
  • Self-directed learner who believes in continuous learning and development.
  • Proficient in communicating via technical writing and presentations.
