Resumo da vaga

Avery Dennison is seeking a highly creative, scientifically rigorous Senior Materials Scientist to advance silicone and non-silicone release systems, acrylic adhesives, and related materials technologies for our pressure sensitive and functional laminate platforms.

You will bridge polymer chemistry, physics, interface science, and AI/ML-enabled materials development to accelerate innovation and translate science into practical, scalable solutions across our global manufacturing footprint.

Qualificações

• PhD in Polymer or Materials Science and Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Physics, Chemistry or a closely-related discipline.
• Minimum of 7 years of direct industrial R&D experience in developing novel materials paradigms with demonstrated expertise in polymer science, coatings, or related fields.
• Strong ability to connect materials structure, formulation, processing, properties and performance through rigorous scientific reasoning and independent experimentation.
• Prior experience with the use of automated high-throughput experimentation, robotics, self-driving autonomous laboratory concepts, or developing model-ready scientific databases is highly desirable.

Responsabilidades

• On-site: Drive fundamental understanding and insights of complex materials and phenomena, including silicone and non-silicone release coatings, polymeric adhesives, gels, colloids, and multi-layer laminates.
• Conceive and develop new material paradigms and translate fundamental scientific understanding into practical, scalable materials, process solutions, and differentiated products.
• Identify and drive appropriate experimentation and/or modeling approaches to construct sound scientific structure-property-process-performance fundamentals.
• Work with cross-functional teams to translate concepts to reality and construct careful experiments to prove or disprove hypotheses by blending scientifically driven experimentation with predictive computational insights.
• Establish the scientific and experimental foundation for autonomous self-driving laboratory capabilities by connecting automated high-throughput experimentation, scientific databases, predictive models, and human scientific judgement.
