About the company:
At Perfect Day, we believe in empowering people to enjoy the dairy foods they love - products full of delicious taste and luscious texture - while making the world a kinder, greener place.
We make milk protein that is nutritionally identical to protein from cow's milk, but made using flora fermentation instead of animals. We're working with food and dairy companies to deliver high-quality protein and products that are delicious, nourishing, sustainable, and humane.
It's #KinderGreenerDairy for people, planet, and animals - without the compromise.

It's a Perfect Day to change the world! At Perfect Day, we're doing just that.
Perfect Day was founded in 2014 to create delicious, nutritious dairy products that everyone can love. We’re using fermentation (not animals) to make dairy proteins that are the foundation for foods like ice cream, cheese and yogurt – all with the distinctive taste and textures that consumers demand, but without lactose or environmental downsides. Through partnerships with respected brands, we’re working to launch a whole range of dairy products that will help shape a humane, sustainable food system for future generations.
We are currently searching for an Analytical Chemist excited about working with proteins, peptides, and small molecules in a fast-paced start-up environment. As the newest member of the Analytical Chemistry Team, you will work on liquid chromatography (HPLC, UPLC) of proteins, supporting method development, optimization, validation, and transfer to manufacturing sites. You will collaborate with a core team of scientists and engineers in fermentation, downstream processing, food discovery, and manufacturing, and you will have the opportunity to manage a direct report. A successful candidate will have prior experience working in teams and have strong analytical chemistry knowledge to complement and build upon our current profile of bioanalytical methods to interrogate protein quality/function, structure, activity and more.
It's a Perfect Day to change the world. The day when delicious dairy goodness is something everyone can love. The day we say goodbye to the downsides of factory farming. The day we throw a big party with luscious, animal-free milk, cheese, yogurt, and ice cream, all made with Perfect Day! We hope you join us!
