Lallemand is building one of the most ambitious bio-based products platforms in Europe — a scalable, industrial-grade alternative to petroleum-based materials for various applicative industries. A specific project investigate solutions for bio-polymers uses: it is a commercially driven program on a clear trajectory from lab-scale formulation to industrial production.
We are recruiting an engineer who will own the critical interface between product chemistry and application reality — securing formulation robustness, generating the data that drives industrial decisions, and supporting the first customer deployments.
You take ownership of lab-scale formulation development and application engineering. You build the structure–property relationships that convert promising chemistry into a robust, deployable product. You produce the technical data that makes industrial scaling credible and quality decisions defensible.
A rare combination of scientific depth and industrial impact
Why this role matters
* Your work directly shapes the qualification of the first bio-adhesive volumes delivered to market.
* You operate within a team of recognized experts across chemistry, industrialization and customer deployment.
* The scope will grow with the program — giving you the opportunity to shape your own level of responsibility.
Responsibilities
* Develop and optimize bio-based materials formulations at lab scale (ie: adhesive applications…)
* Build structure–property–performance maps linking chemistry, microstructure and macroscopic behaviour.
* Drive robustness and variability studies on raw material batches and critical formulation parameters.
* Produce structured application data supporting customer trials, after-sales technical support, and Go/No-Go qualification decisions.
* Translate lab-scale constraints into industrial language — viscosity, pot life, cure kinetics, cost — for the industrialization team.
* Manage your projects with discipline: timelines, resources, reporting, and structured data delivery.
* Contribute to sustainability positioning: LCA support, bio-sourcing traceability, eco-label compliance.
