Manager-track GQP quality assurance for Nippon Kayaku's pharmaceuticals: data review for manufacturing sites in Japan and overseas, audits, regulatory filings and developing junior staff.
About this role
A research and development position in the Fine Chemicals Research Laboratory of Nippon Kayaku. The company is expanding in the fast-growing MEMS and semiconductor packaging markets, and developing new dry film resists (DFR) for them is a priority theme, run with internal teams and affiliates in Japan and abroad.
The chemist handles the full path from planning a new product to industrial production: designing and evaluating resist formulations to hit target performance; leading trial production and scale-up studies at the company's plants; and holding technical discussions with customers to pick up new needs and problems and feed them back into development. The hire first joins an existing development project as a core team member, with early scope for technical decisions and a later path to theme leader and management.
Required: a university or graduate degree (master's or doctorate), and at least five years of formulation development experience with photoresists or dry film resists.
