Research Scientist, Analytical Chemistry onepotResearch Scientist, Analytical ChemistrySouth San Francisco, CaliforniaOurs has to hold up across a platform that runs broad, structurally diverse chemistry in parallel — compounds that ionize strangely, products that hide behind adducts and in-source fragmentation, regioisomers that share an exact mass, detectors that saturate, peaks that are not what they claim to be. You rationalize fragment series mechanistically — charge-driven versus charge-remote pathways, characteristic neutral losses — and defend an elemental composition from mass defect, isotope fine structure, and ring-and-double-bond logic rather than a library hit.
