IndiaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Chemist focused on translating lab-scale research into reliable, high-quality analytical results and practical process improvements. I’ve built my career around method development, scientific research, and day-to-day laboratory execution while keeping safety, documentation, and reporting tight.
As an R&D Scientist at MacDermid Alpha Electronics Solutions (Bengaluru), I developed amine-capped silver nanoparticles with a low sintering temperature. I also worked on pilot-scale batches, improved efficiency and reduced production time, and developed a flow reactor process—supported by instrument operations (Particle Size Analyzer, TGA, DSC, FT-IR, UV-Vis) and QC analysis such as Loss on Ignition and particle-size metrics.
Earlier, I worked as an Analytical Chemist at Atotech Development Center (Gurgaon), collaborating with corrosion-resistant coating teams and developing zinc/zinc alloy plating solutions. I supported safe workplace practices for hazardous chemicals, handled ISO-relevant documentation for audits and certification readiness, and previously served as a Junior Research Fellow and Project Assistant at IIT(ISM) and CSIR-CGCRI—where I designed catalysts and photocatalytic systems for hydrogen generation and value-added chemical production.
