That’s it for this week. Remember, these roles are here one day and gone the next, so don’t hesitate to jump on any that catch your eye.

I landed a coatings role this spring by leading my resume with the exact methods — “ASTM B117 salt spray, D3359 crosshatch, QUV/UV-A” — and one hard result (500+ hr salt spray on a zinc-rich primer). For the remote buzz, I’ve seen most turn hybrid unless you spell out a home workflow; I noted my benchtop drawdown rig and SOPs, which got me fast callbacks.

Quick tip: I started listing scale-up specifics (2 L to 150 L with Cowles + rotor-stator, Hegman 7, VOC 290 g/L) and one outcome, and remote screens picked up fast. For remote roles, add a tiny ‘TDS-style resume’ section with methods/equipment and link a simple portfolio; I found good leads via https://chemistryjobs.acs.org. Small caveat: metal pretreat and pilot-line work still want you onsite most days.
