DuPont
Field Application Engineer - Bay Area
DuPont, Hayward, California, us, 94557
At DuPont, we are working on things that matter; whether it’s providing clean water to more than a billion people on the planet, producing materials that are essential in everyday technology devices from smartphones to electric vehicles, or protecting workers around the world.
If you would like to be a part of a premier multi-industrial company that is delivering sustainable solutions that bring real purpose and value, of a company with collaborative spirit because it believes that we work best when we work together as a team and values the diversity of thought, then DuPont is the company for you!
We are excited to share that on May 22, 2024, DuPont announced plans to separate(1) into three industry-leading, independent publicly traded companies. This strategic move will create focused businesses with distinct investment profiles. We believe the proposed separations will create opportunities for all three future companies to better serve their customers and unlock long-term value for stakeholders. This process is expected to take 18-24 months from the date of announcement to complete. We are committed to supporting our employees throughout this transition and ensuring a smooth and successful separation process. We look forward to welcoming new talent who are interested in contributing to the continued success and growth of our evolving organization.
