At PT Green Chemicals Indonesia, we are committed to driving green innovation through advanced and sustainable chemical solutions. As your partner in sustainable chemicals, we support industries across Indonesia in achieving efficient, eco‑conscious operations — from water treatment and maintenance chemicals to process optimization.

At Green Chemicals Indonesia, you'll be part of a passionate team dedicated to sustainability and innovation. This is a great opportunity to make a real impact — combining technical fieldwork, applied chemistry, and collaboration with a dynamic commercial team. Be part of our journey toward a greener, smarter, and more sustainable future.

As a Senior R&D Formulator, you will lead the development of specialty chemical formulations (e.g., water treatment, maintenance/process chemicals) from concept to commercial readiness—covering formulation design, laboratory testing, application validation in the field, and scale‑up support—while upholding quality, safety, and regulatory compliance.

• Design and optimize formulations to meet performance, safety, cost, and sustainability (green compliance) targets.
• Prepare and execute test plans (screening–basic DOE–stability–compatibility), analyze results, and make go/no‑go recommendations.
• Produce technical documentation: tech packs/formula sheets, TDS (Technical Data Sheet), COA templates, and inputs for SDS/labeling per regulations.
• Manage application trials with customers (focused and well‑documented); collaborate with Sales/Technical Service.
• Coordinate with QA/QC, Manufacturing, and Supply Chain for technology transfer of formulations, raw materials, and process parameters (pilot → production).
• Maintain data traceability (lab notebook/ELN, raw‑material logs, lab batches) and integrity of retain samples.
• Identify alternate raw‑material suppliers; evaluate performance and cost‑in‑use.
• Comply with EHS (PPE, LOTO, chemical & waste handling) and implement 5S/housekeeping in the lab.
• Contribute to the product roadmap and continuous improvement.

• Bachelor's degree in Chemical Engineering or Chemistry (Science).
• 3–5 years of experience as a Formulator/Researcher in specialty chemicals.
• Solid grasp of formulation science (e.g., surfactants/additives, corrosion/scale control, dispersants, inhibitors) and relevant performance testing.
• Able to design tests using basic DOE, strong analytical ability, and capable of producing clear technical reports.
• Understanding of SDS/labeling, chemical regulations basics, and QA/QC practices.
• Collaborative, meticulous in documentation, safety‑disciplined, and comfortable working cross‑functionally and with customers (field trials).
