Position Overview
Fermentation Scientist
Job Description
This role offers a unique opportunity for a fermentation scientist to own and improve an egg-based biological fermentation process from end to end. You will focus on understanding and optimizing a naturally derived active ingredient used in consumer deer and rabbit repellent products, making the process faster, more consistent, and scalable. Sitting at the intersection of R&D and manufacturing, you will translate what happens in the lab into robust, reliable production processes and serve as the subject matter expert for fermentation within the organization.
Responsibilities
+ Design, plan, and run fermentation experiments using egg-based materials to improve a naturally derived active ingredient.
+ Investigate why the fermentation process behaves differently under various conditions, including why cycle times range from 7–10 days to up to 28 days.
+ Systematically test and optimize process variables such as tem...
