Process Data Scientist I

Monolith needs a Process Data Scientist who is ready to create change and make a global impact. Ready to help us make a difference?

Join us on the frontlines of change.

Our Process Data Scientists holistically understand the current state of the process and identify how solutions today will impact processing across multiple plants and generations of the process. They work to guide technology development and experimentation via modeling and validation to ensure the business goals of the company are achieved.

The Process Data Scientist is responsible for the analysis and optimization of Monolith's carbon black manufacturing process. In addition, they will identify and develop tools to improve efficiency, support engineers in the fields of statistics and modeling, and work on several stages of the process from research and development, to technical transfer and scaleup, to system operation.
