How You Will Make an Impact
Independently lead development activities across client projects from preclinical through Phase III and registration. Create phase-appropriate strategies for customer-defined product development programs. Execute prototype, scale-up, and process transfer activities including manufacturing, data evaluation, troubleshooting, and risk assessments. Write, review, and approve cGMP documentation (batch records, protocols, SOPs, pharm dev reports, investigations, etc.). Apply QbD principles, design of experiments, and statistical tools to support drug product development. Maintain expert knowledge of equipment and processes relevant to pharmaceutical development. Monitor emerging formulation technologies and conduct literature/patent reviews to inform development plans. Operate in a GMP environment with diverse compounds (including high-potent and controlled substances). Collaborate closely with Analytical Development, QA, Project Management, and Validation groups on cross-functional initiatives. Serve as a technical lead on product development project teams and mentor junior scientists. Lead continuous process improvements and support scheduling of group activities. Demonstrate reliable attendance and professional communication with stakeholders while embodying cultural values.
What You Will Bring
Bachelor’s degree in Pharmaceutics, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or related field with
8+ years
of oral solid dosage formulation/process development experience (Master’s with
6+ years
acceptable). Hands-on expertise in formulation and process development for
tablets, capsules, and multiparticulates . Strong theoretical foundation in pharmaceutics and physical organic chemistry. Proven knowledge of excipient functionality, formulation strategy, and unit operations. Experience applying statistical DoE for process optimization. Excellent written, verbal, and technical communication skills. Familiarity with MS Office and statistical tools such as JMP or Minitab. Knowledge of GLP/cGMP and regulatory guidance (FDA, ICH, EMEA) related to oral solid dosage.
Special Conditions
Some travel required (client meetings, conferences, cross-site collaboration).
