  • Control pigment particle size and distribution through advanced milling and dispersion techniques.
  • Perform stability testing, including zeta potential, sedimentation, and rheological analysis, to guarantee shelf-life and consistency.
  • Validate printhead performance by testing droplet formation, jetting reliability, and long-term nozzle health.
  • Assess ink–fabric interactions to ensure vibrant colour, penetration, fastness, and superior textile feel.
  • Partner with production teams to scale laboratory-developed inks into reliable manufacturing processes.
  • Ensure formulations meet all environmental, regulatory, and textile safety standards.
  • Implement robust QC protocols to ensure product consistency from raw materials to finished inks.
  • Innovate and develop novel ink formulations which may include pigments, binders, and dispersion technologies, contributing to patents and intellectual property strategies for competitive advantage.

Requirements:

  • Advanced degree in Chemistry, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, or a related field (PhD preferred) with 10+ years' industry experience.
  • Proven experience in colloidal chemistry, pigment dispersion, and ink formulation.
  • Hands-on knowledge of particle size reduction, rheological analysis, and surface chemistry.
  • Familiarity with inkjet printing technologies and textile printing processes.
  • Strong understanding of environmental and safety compliance in ink chemistry.

What We Offer:

  • Opportunity to work on innovative textile printing solutions.
  • Collaborative and dynamic work environment.
  • Professional growth and development opportunities.
