Resume:

Dear Sir/Madam:

I am interested in joining your company as a Product Development Chemical Engineer/Research Scientist, and to work in the area of formulations related to household/Industrial cleaner and personal care products.

My work experiences are in: (1) Formulation development related to fabric care, multi floor surface cleaning, carpet cleaning (2) Personal care products formulations related to hair and skin care. (3) Corrosion inhibition on metal surfaces in presence of solstice propellants, (4). Development of Microencapsulation of solstice propellants for industrial and personal care applications. (5) Microencapsulation of essential oils (6) Encapsulations of fire- retardant additives for polyurethane foams applications. (7) Membrane separations, biofiltration, bioremediation of VOCs, (8) Electrolytes development for Lithium-ion batteries, (9) Additives development for CF3I stability in lubricating oils.

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.

In my present job at Angus chemicals, I am working as an application scientist for developing new applications for amino alcohols in home and industrial cleanings.

In my previous job assignment, I was working as a Sr. Chemical Engineer/Scientist in Honeywell at BRL, Buffalo. This involved looking for several different applications of 1234ze propellant in industrial as well as personal care products market. Other projects are related to the development of fire- retardant additives for polyurethane foams and development of micro-capsules of 1233zd.

In the past, I have worked as a Product Development Chemical Engineer at Euro-Pro in Boston, MA. My responsibility included development of chemical formulations to be used in steam, multi- floor and carpet cleaning. My responsibility further involved 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, were the regular feature of my job. This interaction helped me to develop project scope and time-line following stage gate managing procedure. Achieving the set objectives and milestones were the key elements of my duty.

Before joining Euro-Pro, I was employed at oneCARE (Cincinnati, OH) company as a 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, 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 the formulated 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 polymers, colloids and interfacial science. With my education and work experiences, I am very confident that I will be able to contribute to your company towards its future business growth. I am here attaching my resume for your further considerations.
