Formulation Scientist

Department: R&D Location: Israel Reports to: VP of R&D Position Type: Full-time The Role: Our Formulation Scientist role sits at the center of Eybna's R&D process. You'll design and build terpene-based formulations for our ingredient lines, working from BNA™ platform predictions through to bench validation. This is a role for someone who enjoys iterating fast, from computational prediction to physical sample to sensory result.

Key Responsibilities

Design, develop, and refine terpene and botanical formulations for functional, flavor, and aroma applications. Translate BNA™ platform predictions and synergy research into bench-tested formulations, closing the loop between computational and physical validation. Run sensory and stability testing on formulations, adjusting ratios and components to hit target function, taste, and aroma profiles.

Collaborate with the Computational Chemistry and Analytical teams to validate formulation performance against predicted receptor and synergy data. Support custom formulation projects for B2B clients, translating customer briefs into working prototypes. Document formulation processes, results, and iterations for the internal knowledge base and regulatory files.

Stay current on functional ingredient trends, safety data, and formulation techniques in adjacent industries.

Requirements

Degree in chemistry, food science, flavor/fragrance technology, or a related field (MSc preferred). 3+ years of hands-on formulation experience, ideally with terpenes, essential oils, flavors, or functional ingredients. Strong bench skills and comfort iterating quickly between formulation and testing. Familiarity with sensory evaluation methods and basic analytical techniques (GC, HPLC) is a plus.

Ability to work cross-functionally with computational, analytical, and production teams. Curious and hands-on, comfortable working at the intersection of data and bench science.
