Develop polymerisation strategies and a structured R&D plan to prepare the polymer formulations for aevoloop's novel, polyester-based plastics. * Check the principal recyclability of the polymers by developing depolymerisation procedures to lay the groundwork for selective recycling back to the monomers. * Lead and interpret analytical workstreams (DSC, TGA, NMR, SEC, rheology, MFI, viscosity, TAN, mechanical testing, weathering/hydrolytic stability) to define the ideal polymer formulation and achieve the desired mechanical and processing properties. * Advanced expertise in polymer chemistry, particularly polyester and polyamide that you built within a PhD in polymer chemistry, chemistry, or a related field. Experience with biodegradable and/or circular polymers is advantageous. * You have deep familiarity with analytical and characterisation methods for polymers: DSC, TGA, NMR, ...
