Professional Profile: Analytical Chemist I am a Chemical Analyst with extensive experience in planning, performing, and validating chemical and physical-chemical analyses. My primary goal is to ensure the quality, safety, and compliance of products and processes by rigorously applying laboratory protocols and current regulations. Key Skills Advanced Instrumental Analysis: Independent use of high-tech laboratory instruments, including: Chromatography (HPLC, GC, TLC) Spectroscopy (UV-Vis, FT-IR, ICP-OES/MS) Classical chemical analysis (titrations, gravimetry, pH measurement) Data Management and Validation: Collection, processing, and critical interpretation of analytical data; preparation of technical reports and certificates of analysis. Quality Control and Assurance (QA/QC): Work in compliance with industry regulations (e.g., ISO 9001, ISO 17025, GMP, GLP) and manage LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System). Maintenance and Calibration: Periodic calibration, routine maintenance, and troubleshooting of laboratory equipment to ensure maximum test accuracy. Key Responsibilities Sampling and analyzing raw materials, semi-finished products, and finished products. Developing and validating new analytical methods to optimize quality control processes. Identifying anomalies, out-of-spec (OOS), or contamination, collaborating with production and R&D teams to resolve the causes. Ensuring compliance with safety regulations (PPE, chemical waste management, and SDS). Soft Skills Precision and attention to detail: Essential to avoiding contamination and ensuring accurate results. Analytical Thinking and Problem Solving: Ability to interpret complex spectra or traces and resolve instrumental anomalies. Teamwork and Communication: Effective collaboration with production, quality assurance, and research departments.
