Fully Onsite
Work Schedule: 8AM - 5PM
All candidates must be willing to work onsite at ATO
The ideal candidate holds a bachelor's degree with four years of relevant industry experience, a master's degree with two years of experience, or a PhD in Chemical Engineering, Chemistry, or a related discipline, with experience supporting small-molecule API drug substance development.
This role reports to the Associate Director of Engineering and provides on-site laboratory support and scientific contribution. The candidate will work in a highly collaborative, team-based environment alongside process development of chemists, chemical engineers, and analytical scientists. The role also interfaces with Environmental, Health, Safety & Sustainability (EHSS), Facilities & Engineering, laboratory management, and external vendors.
This is a laboratory-focused position requiring strong technical aptitude, curiosity, and motivation to advance synthetic laboratory operations, automation, and data-driven experimentation. The successful candidate will be capable of working independently on defined objectives while contributing effectively within a fast-paced, cross-functional team.
The candidate should demonstrate a solid foundation in chemical synthesis, synthetic laboratory operations, and scale-relevant safety practices.
Experience with kilo-lab or pilot-scale environments is preferred.
Strong written, verbal, and presentation skills are required.
Experience with high-throughput experimentation (HTE) for reaction screening, solubility assessment, and crystallization screening is desirable.
Familiarity with automated HTE workflows and solid-state characterization techniques is a plus. Hands-on experience with analytical tools such as HPLC, XRPD, and thermal analysis (DSC/TGA) is advantageous.
Exposure to kinetic modeling platforms and process analytical technology (PAT) tools is preferred.
Proficiency with standard office software (Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Outlook) is required.
Experience with Dynochem or similar process modeling and simulation tools is a plus.
