• Conduct lab tests on the physico-mechanical properties of finished plastic products and control incoming raw material quality.
• Compile and update technical specification sheets, calculate material consumption norms, and optimize the production cycle.
• Implement measures to prevent defects (short shots, flash, silver streaking, warpage) and analyze root causes.
• Organize the rational use of secondary production waste (crushing, granulating, and re-introducing into the mix).
🎓 **Requirements:**
• Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Chemical Engineering or Polymer Technology.
• 3+ years of experience as a Technologist or Chief Technologist in polymer/plastics manufacturing.
• Deep knowledge of polymer properties (PP, PE, PS, ABS, PVC, PA) and their processing nuances.
