Senior Research Engineer Personal Care & Beauty

Overview:

Dysons Personal Care and Beauty Research Team in Singapore works on projects that bring together expertise from a range of disciplines. Members of the team have backgrounds in biology electronics optics and material science. We look to understand biological systems and manipulate them through chemical electrical and mechanical intervention to develop technologies that can ultimately improve a persons well-being. The team is looking to add a Research Engineer with experience in biological probes biosensing and materials this role you will be expected to work across teams to help build new multi-disciplinary technical capabilities as well as develop technologies that can be translated to downstream development partners within the organisation.

Accountabilities and Responsibilities:

• Collaborate with other scientists and engineers to define the requirements of new or existing research projects

• Provide technical perspective as a subject matter expert giving inputs to cross-functional teams to deliver novel biosensing and materials characterisation technologies.

• Critically review literature and patents for recent advances new materials calibration methodologies and application domain standards

• Develop and validate advanced analytical/testing protocols

• Integrate knowledge of material properties and chemical interactions with biological findings when characterising surfaces fluids or environments

• Interpret results identify issues and iteratively improve experimental methods

• Coordinate small projects or workstreams promoting clarity and team cohesion while owning project deliverables for your projects.

• Present research plans and outcomes to the leadership team.

• Bring a translational view of research that supports development of product concepts.

Skills and Experience:

• Advanced degree or equivalent industry experience in Materials Science Bioengineering or a closely related discipline with a strong experimental focus.

• Experience developing technology in an industry or commercial context.

• Familiarity with general materials characterisation techniques: elemental and chemical analysis structural/microstructure analysis analysis of electrical and optical properties analysis of mechanical and thermal properties.

• Knowledge of electrochemistry and biosensing; experience working in a biological wet lab (familiarity with designing and executing biological assays) would be an advantage.

• Experience with experimental instrumentation and comfortable with custom (often partially self-built) experimental setups and performing calibration validation and performance benchmarking.

• Quantitative & Analytical Thinking: Translate biological phenomena into engineering constraints and design parameters.

• Experimental Design: Hypothesis-driven experimental planning and skills in troubleshooting noisy variable biological data.

• Computational data analysis image analysis and basic programming skills

• Good communication skills: experience in presenting complex ideas clearly through figure design data storytelling scientific writing and oral presentations

• An understanding of technology readiness levels (TRLs) and translation pathways

• Comfortable operating at the interface of biology and engineering with 1-3 years of working experience in complex R&D organisations
