Within the Center of Excellence Down Stream Process Design belonging to the Lesaffre Institute of Science & Technology, and directly attached to the Drying Process Team Manager, you are in charge of developing process of preservation of micro-organisms and compounds of interest along with the drying process team (8 persons). You will be in charge of the study and optimisation of process parameters for the development of new products or improvement of existing products.

Your main missions will be :

• • To design and realize plan of experiments for your projects.
  • To study project feasibility and be a technical reference for the project you are involved in.
  • To support team activities related to the preservation and design of products implying drying process, and formulation.
  • To provide technical solutions for projects related to team activities.
  • To synthesize and write activities reports of your projects. 

• Master or engineering degree in process engineering, drying process, applied chemistry or food/chemical engineering
• A first experience in drying process and characterization of dry products/powder and emulsions would be appreciated.
• Fluent in English
• Design of experiments
• Technical skills on:
  • Drying process (fluidized bed drying, spray drying, freeze drying, drum drying…)
  • Characterization of dry products, powders and emulsions
  • Formulation
