Remote Fresh Graduate Chemical Engineer Jobs in Alabama

$109,000 - $137,000 base + 8-12% annual bonus potential

Fully Remote (Nationwide) — Decatur, Alabama corporate presence

You understand etching chemistry, front-end fab processes, and how to get a new material qualified inside a semiconductor customer's process. That combination is rare, and it puts you in position to own strategic accounts rather than just service them.

This role puts you at the center of qualifying etching agents into chip fabrication processes for a multi-billion dollar global chemical technology leader. You'll work the full arc of a deal: securing procurement buy-in, running cost simulations, negotiating specifications with customers' quality teams, and handing off mature accounts to sales as they become recurring business. This isn't order-taking. It's technical business development where your engineering background and industry knowledge directly determine whether a qualification succeeds.

You'll operate at the intersection of chemistry, engineering, and commercial strategy. Instead of being handed a territory and a quota, you'll build relationships from the ground up with procurement and quality departments, then transition them into long-term partnerships.

The company is fully remote, giving you flexibility to run your territory from wherever you're based. Compensation includes a base up to $137,000 depending on experience, a sign-on bonus, 8-12% annual bonus potential, and a low-cost benefits package. You'll also represent the company at trade shows, technical conferences, and standards development consortiums, keeping you connected to where the industry is heading.

• Engaging directly with customers' procurement departments to advance product evaluation and qualification
• Running cost simulations for imported product logistics and negotiating specifications with quality teams
• Coordinating with planning, quality assurance, and production teams at the U.S. factory on material handling, logistics, and new product registration
• Ensuring compliance with TSCA, tariffs, and chemical safety regulations
• Communicating with parent company counterparts to keep business flow moving smoothly
• Working alongside the sales team to strengthen and eventually transition customer relationships
• Traveling domestically and internationally (approximately 40%) for customer visits and industry events

• Bachelor's degree in chemical or mechanical engineering, polymer science, or a related technical field from an accredited university (Master's degree a plus)
• 5+ years of experience, 7+ preferred
• Deep understanding of the semiconductor industry, with direct experience in sales or procurement of etching agents used in front-end chip fabrication
• Engineering background preferred
• Ability to travel approximately 40% of the time, domestic and international
• Must be in current position a minimum of 6 months

• Fully remote flexibility with a global technology leader
• Base salary up to $137,000, plus sign-on bonus and 8-12% annual bonus potential
• Low-cost, outstanding benefits package
• Real ownership of accounts from initial qualification through to sales handoff
• Direct exposure to global industry events and standards bodies shaping the semiconductor materials space
