Overview
Job Overview: The Senior Formulation Scientist is responsible for formulation development of sterile injectable dosage forms, from pre-clinical development through product commercialization. Key Responsibilities
Design studies related to pre-formulation and formulation of parenteral products, including solubility, pH solution stability, lyophilization, suspension development, polymer development and others that may impact the stability and delivery of the product. Experimental design, data evaluation, generation of scientific reports, and coordination studies with other technical groups Play an important role in the scale-up and technology transfer process in collaboration with Manufacturing team Investigate, troubleshoot and resolve issues associated with formulation studies and/or R&D pilot manufacturing Responsible, in collaboration with management, to develop and track project timelines and assumes departmental responsibilities for projects when necessary. Consults and interacts with internal cross-functional teams and external clients and customers Operate equipment and apply analytical methodology utilized in the formulation development of parenteral dosage forms (e.g. lyophilizers, compounding/filling equipment, mixing techniques, sterilization techniques, HPLC, KF, particulate matter, etc.) Apply and provide feasibility assessment for a variety of scientific principles and concepts to potential clients, products and investigations. Conducts literature searches to support formulation development and/or pilot manufacturing documentation Effectively communicates and defends own work, orally and in writing, at team meetings, in technical documents, and to external partners Assist, consult, and trouble-shoot during process transfer scale-up and validation activities Interpretation of results and scientific information including proficiency in statistical evaluation of data and design of experiments.
