About us

At FMC Agricultural Solutions, we provide innovative crop protection solutions to growers around the world. With the commitment of approximately 6,500 employees, we are one of the six largest crop protection manufacturers globally. Opening in early 2027, FMC’s new site in Schaffhausen, Switzerland, will bring together Technical Center and R&D teams to create a global hub for technology, innovation, and collaboration, supported by new laboratories and expanded technical capabilities.

As we build this new organization, we are looking for a Senior Process Engineer to play a key role in shaping FMC’s future technical capabilities and business competitiveness. The Schaffhausen Technical Center will support FMC’s manufacturing network worldwide, connecting R&D with commercial manufacturing and providing expertise in technology transfer, scale-up, process optimization, troubleshooting, and continuous improvement. This is a unique opportunity to collaborate with experts across functions and geographies and to see your technical expertise make a tangible impact across FMC’s global operations.

Senior Process Engineer

You will join our Active Ingredient (AI) Technical Center as a Senior Process Engineer and play a key role in supporting active agrochemical ingredients and intermediates from New Product Introduction (NPI) through their commercial lifecycle. In this role, you will drive step-change process innovations that enhance manufacturing capacity, safety, process robustness, sustainability, and cost competitiveness for both newly launched and established products within FMC's portfolio. The role also contributes to generic defense and intellectual property (IP) protection.

What you will do with us:

  • Provide senior chemical engineering expertise and technical leadership across process development, scale-up and commercial manufacturing.
  • Partner with chemistry teams to develop safe, scalable and cost-effective processes, leading scale-up from laboratory to commercial production.
  • Lead process engineering and design activities, including process modelling, mass and energy balances, equipment requirements and capital project support.
  • Drive technology innovation and step-change improvements to enhance manufacturing efficiency, capacity and competitiveness.
  • Lead engineering activities for technology transfer, site adaptation, commissioning and start-up at internal and external manufacturing sites.
  • Champion process safety through PHA, HAZOP and LOPA, while troubleshooting complex manufacturing challenges.
  • Conduct techno-economic assessments, support manufacturing strategy and site selection, and provide technical input to external manufacturing partnerships.

Key Requirements

  • Master’s degree in chemical engineering or equivalent; a PhD is considered an advantage.
  • At least 10 years of relevant industrial experience in agrochemical, pharmaceutical, fine or specialty chemicals, particularly in process development and/or manufacturing.
  • Proven experience in process scale-up, process design, technology transfer and supporting commercial manufacturing operations.
  • Strong knowledge of chemical engineering fundamentals, including mass and energy balances, heat and mass transfer, reaction engineering and chemical unit operations.
  • Sound understanding of process safety management, with practical experience in PHA, HAZOP and LOPA.
  • Demonstrated ability to translate laboratory and experimental data into commercial-scale process designs, supported by strong problem-solving, data analysis and techno-economic assessment skills.
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to collaborate across chemistry, manufacturing, EHS, quality and engineering teams in a global environment.
  • Fluent spoken and written English.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
