Engineer Chemical Engineering

Dear Sir/Madam:

I am interested in joining your company as a Process Chemical Engineer and Project Management

related to chemicals.

My work experiences are in detergent formulations related to fabric care, multi floor surface cleaning,

carpet care and cleaning, pet food products,personal care products, membrane separations using ultra

filtration, pervaporation, biofiltration, chromatographic separations. These works also involved

experiment design, process improvements, writing protocols, process/equipment modifications,

engineering calculations, and providing technical assistance to junior staff. This also involved to

conduct laboratory scale and pilot scale experiments to develop process technology.

Presently, I am working as a Product Development Chemical Engineer at Euro-Pro in Boston, MA.

My responsibility includes development of chemical formulations to be used in steam, hard floor and

carpet cleaning. My responsibility further involves interacting with third party vendors to get desired

products formulated, packed, and shipped in time. Interactions with marketing group, sales team,

global compliance group, project management group, and product managers, are the regular feature

of my job. This interaction helps me to develop project scope and time line. Achieving the set

objectives and milestones are the key elements of my duty.

In the past, I was employed at oneCARE (Cincinnati, OH) company as formulation development

Engineer. My job involved innovation of new products and scale-up to the production scale. This also

involved interacting with various groups of people like sales and marketing, vendors and suppliers,

and provide training to the technician at the manufacturing plant.

My previous work experiences at Procter & Gamble are in the area of detergent formulations for

fabric care, formulations of micro-emulsion and hard surface cleaning solutions, emulsions and

encapsulation of emulsions, characterization of polymers using rheometer and other instruments like

thermal analyzer DSC and mechanical analyzer DMA. My responsibilities also include stability,

performance, and compatibility evaluation of products.

In the past, I have also worked on the design and development of bioreactors for bioremediation of

hazardous chemicals, and separations of chemicals through ultrafiltration at the US.EPA in Cincinnati

Besides my technical and project management experience, I have a strong background in both

chemistry and chemical engineering. With my education and work experiences, I am very confident

that I will be able to contribute to your company towards its future growth.

I am here attaching my resume for your further considerations.

Regards,

Madan G. Parvatiyar
