Job Title

Company DescriptionInnoleague Technologies India Pvt Ltd specializes in advanced technology development focused on active delivery through microencapsulation. The company operates across three major business segments: FMCG products with advanced technology , contract manufacturing of these liquid products, and innovative active delivery solutions for specialty chemicals. These include applications such as slow-release antimicrobials, phase change materials, biodegradable hybrid capsules, UV absorbers for skin care, functional foods, and newly developed cosmetic slow release chemicalsRole DescriptionThis is a full-time on-site role for a Research and Development Executive based in Thane, who can commute regularly to our lab based in Sonale Village, Mumbai Nashik Highway Thane DistrictWe are looking for a technically strong and project-driven R&D Executive / Senior R&D Executive to lead and deliver our Encapsulated Fasteners development programme. This is a specialist role combining hands-on formulation expertise in epoxy resin and hardener systems with end-to-end R&D project management responsibilities. The ideal candidate will have a solid foundation in reactive polymer chemistry, coating or adhesive systems, and the ability to independently drive a complex, multi-phase development project from concept through to commercial readiness and rolloutEncapsulated fasteners — screws, bolts, and threaded components coated with microencapsulated adhesive, sealant, or locking compounds — demand precision in formulation and application performance. You will own this project technically and organizationally, coordinating with raw material suppliers, production, quality, and commercial teams.We will also develop Formaldehyde Free & Biodegradable Encapsulation SystemQualificationsB.Tech / B.Sc. / M.Sc. / M.Tech in Polymer Science, Chemistry, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Paint & Coatings Technology, or equivalent.3–5 years of hands-on R&D experience in epoxy formulation, adhesives, sealants, coatings, or reactive polymer systems.Proven ability to independently design, execute, and document formulation development experiments.Experience with epoxy resin chemistry — resin and hardener selection, stoichiometry, cure mechanism, and structure-property relationships.Familiarity with performance testing of adhesive or sealant systems — mechanical, thermal, and chemical resistance characterization.Working knowledge of analytical instruments — DSC, TGA, rheometer, viscometer, particle size analyser.Strong project planning and organizational skills — ability to manage timelines, prioritize tasks, and report progress clearly.Manage own time and prioritize project management in a fast paced role with timelines and deadlines. Candidates who can deliver results by managing the uncertainties of R&D and managing themselves are highly desirablePreferred SkillsPrior experience in microencapsulation technology in NOT required as already that expertise exists inhouseExposure to fastener, automotive, aerospace, or industrial assembly applications and their adhesive/sealant performance requirements is preferred but not necessaryKnowledge of threadlocking, thread sealing, or retaining compound products (e.g., analogous to Loctite/Henkel product categories).Familiarity with DIN/ISO fastener testing standards — torque-tension, vibration resistance, and chemical resistance protocols.Experience in technology transfer and scale-up from lab to pilot/production scale.Exposure to regulatory submissions and customer approval documentation for industrial adhesive or fastener products.Proficiency in data analysis tools — Excel-based DOE (Design of Experiments), or equivalent statistical tools.If not having this exposure, willing to learn from Directors, internet and publicy available literature and fast scalingKey CompetenciesTechnical ownership — takes full accountability for formulation decisions and project outcomes.Structured problem-solving — approaches formulation challenges systematically, uses DOE and data to guide decisions rather than trial-and-error.Project discipline — manages timelines rigorously, flags risks early, and keeps stakeholders informed.Cross-functional collaboration — works effectively with production, quality, procurement, and commercial teams.Customer-focus — translates application performance requirements into precise formulation targets.Scientific curiosity — stays current with developments in epoxy chemistry, encapsulation technology, and fastener applications.Communication — articulates complex technical findings clearly in written reports and verbal presentations.Learning ability – not unfazed by uncertainty or bounds of current knowledge. Always willing to push the boundaries by analysing practical results and using science in literature judiciously
