in the Corporate Analytical Technical Center located in St. Paul, MN. The
candidate will apply spectroscopic techniques to the characterization of
unknown materials for problem solving purposes. The position will involve
a mix of laboratory work and spectral interpretation. The nature of our
corporate analytical facility ensures exposure to a wide range of
materials. There is ample opportunity to be involved with challenging
problems ranging from the analysis of impurities to projects requiring
analytical expertise in the development of new products. The laboratory is
equipped with Varian 400, 500, and 600 MHz high-resolution spectrometers
and a 400 MHz WB system for solids.
The ideal candidate will compliment our talented staff of IR, NMR, and mass
spectroscopists. The requisite skills, in addition to expertise in NMR
spectroscopy, include organic or polymer chemistry and a general
familiarity with other analytical techniques. Good written and oral
communication skills are essential for communicating with problem solving
teams and for documenting results. Experience in NMR spectroscopy of
insoluble polymeric and/or biological materials is a plus. Applicants
should have recently (within the last 2 years) obtained a Ph.D.
