Engineer Engineering

Dear Sir/Madam:

I am interested in joining your company as a Research and Development Chemist/Chemical Engineer to work in the area of formulations related to fabric care, hard surface , and metal cleaning.

Presently, I am employed at oneCARE company as formulation scientist. My job involves innovation of new products after having market research performed and bring the formulation products in the market. Since our company is in practice of getting license agreement from Procter & Gamble, Purina for the Brand name like Tide, Bounce, Purina, etc., it becomes very challenging to innovate completely independent products without having consent agreement with Procter & Gamble and Purina. They have to give permission to bring any new products in the market after going through all the technical details and verifying the brand equity criteria as set by them. Similarly, we have acquired brand name from Purina for our pet care training pads.

Besides the above mentioned products, we make formulations for private labels like Walmart, Target, etc.

My previous work experiences at Procter & Gamble are in the area of high density 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 micro mixing of chemicals, bioremediation of hazardous waste chemicals, and separations of chemicals through ultrafiltration.

Besides my research background, 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
