About the Role
Chemist, Specialty Chemicals
Join our team as a domain expert in specialty chemicals, helping bridge advanced chemical knowledge with AI systems and structured data. You'll ensure our models reflect the nuance and complexity of real-world compounds, formulations, and industrial processes.
Responsibilities
Review and validate AI-generated data related to specialty chemicals, formulations, and applications
Provide deep input on structure–function relationships, use cases, and performance characteristics
Assist in curating, annotating, and structuring datasets for AI training and evaluation
Collaborate with AI engineers and product teams to translate industry knowledge into scalable features
Contribute expertise on regulatory, safety, and performance aspects specific to specialty chemical domains
Stay current with advances in materials, additives, and formulation science relevant to our focus areas
Personal Attributes
Highly analytical and detail-oriented with strong data accuracy instincts
Strong communicator able to convey complex concepts to technical and non-technical teams
Curious, pragmatic, and comfortable with ambiguity in a fast-moving environment
Eager to apply scientific knowledge in novel, product-focused contexts
Open to experimentation and feedback-driven iteration
Willing to work in fast-paced startup environment
Technical Requirements
Strong background in chemistry, materials science, or chemical engineering - preferably with a PhD
Domain expertise in one or more specialty areas (e.g. coatings, surfactants, polymers, adhesives, agrochemicals)
Familiarity with interpreting product specs, MSDS, formulation data, and technical datasheets
Comfortable working with structured data and digital chemical representations (e.g. SMILES, InChI)
(Bonus) Experience in industrial R&D, formulation, or technical support roles
(Bonus) Exposure to cheminformatics tools (e.g. RDKit) or scientific data platforms
What You'll Get
High-impact role shaping AI systems grounded in real-world chemistry
Opportunity to work on complex, technical problems with broad industrial relevance
Remote-first environment with flexibility and optional office presence in Sydney
Collaborate with engineers, PhD scientists, and founders solving meaningful challenges
Fast learning curve and potential to grow into strategic or technical leadership roles
Help define how the $5T chemical industry engages with digital and AI transformation
