Обязанности

We're looking for a Senior Formulation Scientist to join our Sterile Product Development (SPD) team, supporting the development and optimization of both sterile injectable products and peptide-based therapeutics. In this role, you'll lead formulation strategy and process development across a diverse product portfolio, supporting programs from early feasibility through commercial scale-up and lifecycle management.
You'll bring deep technical expertise in sterile injectable and peptide formulation development, working cross-functionally with Manufacturing Sciences & Technology (MS&T), Quality, and Regulatory teams to design robust, scalable formulations that meet CGMP and FDA 503B requirements. This is a senior technical role with room to shape formulation strategy, mentor junior scientists, and help expand our sterile and peptide portfolio.

Требования

Ph.D. in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or a related field with 6–8+ years of industry experience, or B.S./M.S. with 8–10+ years of experience in sterile injectable product development, including direct peptide formulation work.
Hands-on experience formulating peptide therapeutics for parenteral administration (solutions, suspensions, or lyophilized products).
Demonstrated experience developing sterile injectable (parenteral) drug products, with direct involvement in formulation design, fill/finish considerations, and container-closure selection.
Strong understanding of peptide-specific degradation pathways and stability-indicating analytical methods.
Experience designing and executing stability studies in accordance with ICH Q1A(R2)/Q5C and USP/FDA 503B requirements.
Proficiency in analytical data interpretation (UPLC/HPLC, mass spectrometry, impurity profiling, and related peptide characterization methods).
Experience with formulation scale-up and technology transfer within CGMP environments.
Excellent technical writing, documentation, and cross-functional communication skills.

Будет плюсом

Experience evaluating third-party API/BUD data packages and providing technical recommendations as part of make-vs.-buy sourcing decisions.
Familiarity with long-acting injectable or novel peptide delivery technologies.
Experience with regulatory documentation and submissions (IND/NDA or 503B filings).
Prior leadership or mentorship experience within a formulation or analytical team.
Experience managing multi-site technology transfer (e.g., coordinating between development and manufacturing facilities).
