We are seeking a highly motivated Data Scientist to support formulation and product development through data-driven innovation. This role will focus on analyzing formulation, laboratory, benchtop, pilot, and process data to generate insights that improve experimentation, ingredient selection, product performance, and decision making across R&D.
The ideal candidate will bring a strong foundation in data science, statistics, and machine learning, along with experience working in a scientific, laboratory, product development, or process-oriented environment. This person will partner closely with formulation scientists, R&I teams, and digital stakeholders to transform complex experimental and operational data into practical, actionable insights that accelerate product development and improve formulation outcomes.
Note: This role is hybrid and based in Clark, New Jersey, with onsite collaboration required 3 days per week
Key Responsibilities
Analyze formulation, laboratory, experimental, benchtop, pilot, and process data to identify patterns, correlations, and optimization opportunities
Develop predictive, statistical, and machine learning models to support formulation design, ingredient selection, and product performance evaluation
Apply experimental design, DoE, statistical testing, and model-based analysis to improve experimentation strategies and support smarter R&D decisions
Design and implement data pipelines, data preparation workflows, and analytical processes to structure, clean, and prepare lab and formulation datasets for analysis
Create interactive dashboards, visualizations, and reporting tools that communicate insights clearly to both scientific and business stakeholders
Partner with formulation scientists, product development teams, R&I teams, and digital stakeholders to translate scientific and product challenges into practical data solutions
Support the development of digital tools and analytics capabilities that improve the speed, consistency, and quality of formulation and product development decisions
Document methodologies, models, assumptions, and workflows to support reproducibility, knowledge sharing, and long-term scalability
Help identify opportunities to improve how formulation and R&D data are captured, organized, and used across teams
Qualifications
Experience in cosmetics, beauty, consumer goods, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, materials science, or related R&D environments
Familiarity with formulation science, product development, ingredient systems, process optimization, or experimental design
Experience with DoE, multivariate analysis, hypothesis testing, or other structured experimentation methods
Experience with LIMS, ELN, digital lab platforms, or R&D data environments
Experience applying AI-assisted analytics, advanced modeling, or digital decision-support tools to scientific datasets
Experience supporting scientists, formulation teams, product developers, or lab-based stakeholders
Exposure to stability, compatibility, sensory, manufacturing, or scale-up data is a plus
Preferred Qualifications
Experience in cosmetics, beauty, consumer goods, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, or materials science.
Familiarity with formulation science, product development, experimental design, or DoE.
Experience with LIMS, digital lab platforms, or R&D data environments.
Experience applying AI-assisted analytics or advanced modeling techniques to scientific datasets.
Work Environment
This role is based in Clark, NJ and requires onsite collaboration 3 days per week. The position partners closely with formulation scientists and cross-functional R&D teams, so candidates should be comfortable working in a collaborative, hybrid environment that blends science, analytics, and product development.
