Chemical industry analyst applying GC/MS expertise to deliver quality-focused analytical results.
PortugalWhat I'm looking for
I’m an Analyst in the chemical industry since 2022, built on precision, accountability, and strong quality oversight. After a successful internship, I was promoted for reliable supervision of cleaning processes, raw material control, and formulation integrity.
My academic foundation in gas chromatography and mass spectrometry drives how I approach complex analytical challenges. I’ve developed and used methods such as GC/TOFMS, GC/MS/MS, and GC-FID to monitor PAHs in demanding matrices.
In my current role, I analyze raw materials, formulations, and finished products across home fragrances, insecticides, and pet care. I also perform physical/chemical checks using Karl-Fisher, HPLC, FTIR, and key properties such as density, refractive index, flash point, and viscosity.
I’m eager to contribute my technical skills, commitment to quality, and dedication to continuous learning to a dynamic team. I’m also deepening my capability through training such as HPLC maintenance and troubleshooting, and regulatory-focused education around GMP and post-market surveillance.
