What is the ruling on working in a company that sells chemical materials to companies that produce alcoholic beverages, whether in an indirect position such as a computer expert, or in a direct position such as invoicing or loading materials?

So long as the company does not dedicate its products to the aforementioned alcohol company, but rather the alcohol company is one of its clients, then working there is not forbidden except for those who directly deal with the alcohol company specifically. As for others, whose work does not directly involve the alcohol company, their work in this company is disliked (makrooh), but not forbidden (haram), similar to other companies with mixed funds.
