The main function of a chemist is to conduct chemical and physical property laboratory tests to assist scientists in making qualitative and quantitative analyses of solids, liquids, and gaseous materials. The chemist will work in an experimental lab on research and development projects including hands-on wet bench chemistry, chemical handling, preparation of solutions/dilutions as well as routine analytical characterization and data analysis.
Job Responsibility:
Monitor product quality to ensure compliance to standards and specifications
Set up and conduct chemical experiments, tests, and analyses using techniques such as chromatography, titration, spectroscopy, physical and chemical separation techniques, and microscopy
Conduct chemical and physical property laboratory tests to assist scientists in making qualitative and quantitative analyses of solids, liquids, and gaseous materials
Compile and interpret results of tests and analyses
Provide technical support and assistance to chemists and engineers
Prepare chemical solutions for products and processes following standardized formulas or create experimental formulas
Maintain, calibrate, operate, clean, and sterilize laboratory instruments and equipment
Write technical reports or prepare graphs and charts to document experimental results
Inventory materials to maintain supplies
Properly and safely handle, label, and dispose of chemical samples
