Your Contributions
Develop and execute instrumental methods (HPLC, GC, TGA, DSC, MS, FTIR) for analysis of compounds, drug substances, raw materials, intermediates, drug products, and packaging materials. Accurately follow established test methods, procedures, and pharmacopeia chapters (e.g., Dissolution) to generate data essential for strategic decision‑making. Plan and execute in‑house stability studies for drug substances, intermediates, and prototype drug products. Assist or lead the development of analytical methods and investigations for out‑of‑specification, out‑of‑trend, or anomalous results. Collaboratively plan and execute cross‑functional studies for chemical development and formulation development. Recognize and respond to unexpected or anomalous observations in all activities. Maintain complete and accurate records of laboratory work in conformance with SOPs and training. Provide detailed reviews of peer‑generated data and data from contracted service providers. Maintain inventory of laboratory consumables and clean glassware. Coordinate vendor service calls for repair and maintenance of laboratory instruments, and maintain records of instrument service and repairs. Perform other duties as assigned. Requirements
BS/BA in chemistry or closely related field with 2+ years of pharmaceutical R&D/QC experience, or MS/MA preferred, or PhD with relevant industry experience. Proficient in MS‑Excel and MS‑Word, and data systems for computer‑controlled instrumentation. Practical knowledge of conducting HPLC analysis and troubleshooting. Ability to evaluate analytical data and draw meaningful conclusions. Knowledge of cGMP expectations for laboratory records and quality systems. Strong computer and project management skills, excellent communication, analytical thinking, and detail oriented. Ability to work as part of a team and meet deadlines in a timeline‑driven setting. The pay for this temp role is $88,000 – $121,000.00 (paid hourly). Decision depends on location, complexity, responsibilities, and relevant experience.
