Senior Formulation Scientist (Full-time)

Are you ready to be at the forefront of agricultural innovation? AgXelerators Inc. is a bold, fast-moving start-up on a mission to transform crop protection, crop health, soil regeneration, and sustainable agriculture. We’re not just developing products – we’re redefining what’s possible. Our team thrives on creativity, risk-taking, and an entrepreneurial mindset, pushing the boundaries of science to create cutting-edgesolutions for the future of farming.

Key Responsibilities:
  • In consultation with company experts, lead the formulation development efforts of new active ingredients, including both biologicals (micro-organisms, proteins, peptides, plant extracts, viruses) and chemistry (naturally-derived or synthetic).
  • Collaborate with our customers to ensure alignment between formulation development, regulatory requirements, and commercial objectives.
  • Design and optimize formulation compositions to improve product performance, stability, and efficacy.
  • Conduct laboratory experiments and tests to evaluate the physical and chemical properties of formulations.
  • Stay abreast of industry trends, emerging technologies, and regulatory developments in agricultural formulations and actively contribute to innovative ideas and new approaches.
  • Follow established protocols and standard operating procedures (SOPs) for safe and efficient laboratory practices.
  • Record and document all experimental information and organize, analyze, summarize, and report the final results.
  • Communicate effectively with other team members and our customers. Present experimental results and progress in group discussions and project updates.
  • Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior team members as needed.
Qualifications:
  • PhD or Master’s degree in chemistry, chemical engineering, material science or related field.
  • 5+ years of experience in agricultural formulation development (industry or research).
  • Proven success in bringing innovative agricultural products to market.
  • Strong understanding of regulatory frameworks for agricultural formulations.
  • A curious, hands-on scientist eager to push boundaries and explore new frontiers.
  • Excellent communicator who thrives in a collaborative, fast-paced environment.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and the ability to work independently as well as part of a team.
  • Entrepreneurial spirit with a passion for solving big problems and taking bold risks.
  • Enthusiastic about the opportunity to contribute to the growth of a small start-up team.
  • Opportunity to make a significant impact in a fast-growing start-up environment.
  • Equity stake in the company, providing potential for substantial financial rewards as the company grows.
  • Flexible work environment and the ability to work on exciting and challenging projects.
  • Opportunity to work alongside some of the leading minds in agricultural formulation chemistry.
  • Competitive benefits package commensurate with your knowledge and experience.
