Senior Process Development Chemist

Senior Process Development Chemist Voyager is an innovative space, defense, and national security technology company committed to advancing and delivering transformative, mission-critical solutions. We tackle the most complex challenges to unlock new frontiers for human progress, fortify national security, and protect critical assets to lead in the race for technological and operational superiority from ground to space. Forge the Future: Join Voyager Technologies The future belongs to those who build it. At Voyager Technologies, were building technologies that protect lives, expand frontiers and prepare us for whats next. And were doing that with people who are wired to solve, build, adapt and lead. These roles are not for the faint of heart. Youll help lay the foundation for humanity's future. Join a culture where innovation thrives, curiosity is rewarded, and impact is real. Were a company of doers, thinkers and builders, united by purpose and grounded in reality. If you want to put your skills to work where the stakes are real and the mission is bigger than any one person,forge the future with Voyager. The Senior Process Development Chemist owns the development and characterization of Voyager's chemical processes at laboratory scale by building fundamental process understanding. This includes investigation of reaction kinetics and thermodynamics, crystallization behavior, impurity rejection, and operating windows. The resulting data package forms the core starting point that engineering relies on to move each process safely and efficiently from bench to plant. This is not a role where you optimize conditions in isolation and hand off a number, but rather one where you design experiments that anticipate how a process will behave at scale and work iteratively alongside the chemical engineers who translate that data into production equipment. With facilities for oxidizers, energetic materials, and energetic precursors planned across Colorado and Louisiana in the coming years, this is also an opportunity to shape how process development is done from the ground up. As the first dedicated hire in this function, you could grow into building and leading a team as operations expand, though a strong individual contributor will find deep and meaningful work here from day one. The position reports to the Chief Engineer and is part of the Chemicals and Explosives Team. This fully onsite role is based in Penrose, CO with a shift to Pueblo, CO expected within the next year. The two sites are about 40 miles apart and within the same Colorado Springs/Pueblo commuting area. PI287541788
