Position Title: Polymer Chemist
Reports to: Head-Medical Devices
Division / Department : Polymer
Location / Site: Aurolab, Madurai
JOB PURPOSE:
Aurolab, being a manufacturing facility specializing in the production of ophthalmic products, may require the expertise of polymer chemists in various capacities.
Key Responsibilities:
Research and Development (R&D)
- Developing new polymers or modifying existing ones to enhance the properties of ophthalmic products, such as intraocular lenses (IOLs), contact lenses, or surgical devices.
- Conducting experiments to optimize polymer formulations for specific applications, considering factors like biocompatibility, mechanical strength, and optical clarity.
Quality Control (QC)
- Ensuring the quality and consistency of polymer materials used in manufacturing processes through testing and analysis.
- Establishing and implementing quality control protocols to meet regulatory standards and specifications for ophthalmic products.
Process Optimization
- Collaborating with engineers and production teams to optimize manufacturing processes involving polymer materials.
- Identifying opportunities for efficiency improvements, cost reduction, and waste minimization in polymer processing.
Material Characterization
- Characterizing the physical, chemical, and mechanical properties of polymer materials using techniques such as spectroscopy, chromatography, and microscopy.
- Analyzing the stability and degradation behavior of polymers over time to ensure product longevity and performance.
Regulatory Compliance
- Keeping abreast of regulatory requirements and standards relevant to ophthalmic products and polymer materials.
- Providing technical expertise and documentation support for regulatory submissions and compliance audits.
Product Innovation
- to the innovation pipeline by identifying emerging trends, technologies, and opportunities in polymer science related to ophthalmology.
- with cross-functional teams to conceptualize, design, and prototype novel ophthalmic products based on advanced polymer materials.
Technical Support
- technical support to other departments, including manufacturing, engineering, and sales, on matters related to polymer chemistry and materials science.
- issues related to polymer materials or processes, and implementing corrective actions to maintain product quality and performance.
Collaboration and Communication
- with internal teams and external partners, such as research institutions or suppliers, to leverage expertise and resources in polymer science.
- findings, recommendations, and project updates effectively through reports, presentations, and meetings.
