Senior Application Engineer (gn) - Paper Coating / Film Extrusion

We are tackling global plastic pollution - and you will be a part of the solution! With our innovative technology, we turn plant leftovers of the agricultural industry into a novel sustainable biomaterial - biobased, plastic-free, and compostable.

A material that leaves no harmful traces. With this, we want to replace as many plastics as possible, and this is where you come in. As Senior Application Engineer (f/m/x) you will help us to further optimize and develop our traceless converting technologies.

With your experience in paper coating (dispersion and/or extrusion) or film extrusion processes, you will help our customers convert our traceless material on their machines. You will help them to enable a transition to use traceless products for a maximum array of applications to make the biggest possible contribution to solving global plastic pollution.

Responsibilities:

1. You lead the technical portion of customer projects for the development of traceless products.
2. You develop processing concepts, lead laboratory tests in our facilities, and communicate technical and project-related information to internal and external stakeholders.
3. You lead production tests in collaboration with our partners for the application of traceless materials on their machines.
4. You help us gain an even deeper understanding of our materials as they are used in converting machines to understand their potential for optimization.
5. You identify opportunities to optimize our material properties while maintaining their unique, holistic sustainability.
6. You share your knowledge about the processing of our material and ideas on how to improve the production with our production and quality teams.

You will spend your working days in an innovative work environment with start-up flair in our laboratory in Buchholz i.d.N., south of Hamburg.
