* Interpretation of results regarding oxygen and moisture barrier, mechanical properties, and sealing curves.
* Generate application data, technical reports, and training materials for customers and internal stakeholders.
Stakeholder Engagement & Collaboration
* Travel (30-40%) to customer and brand owner sites, conferences, and international meetings.
* Present technical findings, trial outcomes, and market insights to internal and external stakeholders.
* Lead projects through influence, collaborating with cross-functional multicultural teams including R&D, Sales, Marketing, and technical Teams to drive commercialization.
