Job Description
This position will focus primarily on drug substance (active pharmaceutical ingredient) programs in a dynamic environment from preclinical through firstinhuman clinical stages. The individual will independently create phaseappropriate analytical methods to facilitate process development assess stability control manufacturing impurities and enable release testing of preclinical and clinical drug substances. They will work closely with synthetic organic chemists in Process Chemistry to establish appropriate proposed regulatory starting materials design efficient control strategies support reaction troubleshooting and identify manufacturing impurities or degradants. Candidates should be comfortable discussing organic chemistry topics relevant to analytical chemistry such as stereoisomers common functional groups and pKa values. Experience with chromatographic analysis (such as HPLC or GC) is preferred but not required. Experience with analysis of peptides and solidphase peptide synthesis (SPPS) is preferred but not required.
Responsibilities:
- Apply analytical separation and detection modes for complex impurity profiling of pharmaceutical drug substances to further the understanding of emerging nonGMP and cGMP manufacturing processes.
- Responsible for leading the analytical aspects of a project while working with other functional areas to advance projects through the development pipeline.
- Utilize understanding of a range of analytical techniques to conduct research and development studies related to smallmolecule drug substances intermediates starting materials impurities and impurity profiling.
- Support new product development with advanced method development and validation technical transfer packages and generation of technical data in support regulatory requirements.
- Highly autonomous and productive in performing laboratory research or method development requiring only minimal direction from or interaction with supervisor.
- Formulate conclusions and design followon experiments based on multidisciplinary data.
- May initiate new areas of investigation that are scientifically meaningful reliable and can be incorporated directly into a research or development program.
- Process interpret and visualize data to facilitate project team decisions.
- Communicate and collaborate with crossfunctional groups and departments especially process chemistry process engineering and technical operations.
- Routinely demonstrate scientific initiative and creativity in research or development activities and maintain a high level of productivity in the lab.
- Responsible for method development testing procedures and implementation of analytical control strategies to help the advancement of drug discovery candidates.
- Raises the bar and is never satisfied with the status quo.
- Understand and adhere to corporate standards regarding code of conduct safety appropriate handling of materials controlled drug and radioactive compounds and GxP compliance where applicable.
Qualifications :
- Bachelors Masters or Ph.D. in Analytical Chemistry typically with minimum 10 (BS) 8 (MS) or 0 2 (Ph.D. years related industry experience.
- Strong technical background in chemistry excellent analytical problemsolving skills. Capable of independently developing and troubleshoot analytical methods.
- Demonstrated experience with HPLC analysis and method development preferred along with expertise and fundamental understanding of spectroscopic techniques.
- Comfortable discussing organic chemistry topics within analytical R&D and with partner functions. Handson experience with synthetic organic chemistry preferred.
- Experience with analysis of peptides and solidphase peptide synthesis (SPPS) is preferred but not required.
- Selfmotivated hardworking detailoriented individual able to work in a fastpaced team environment.
- Experience in the use of computerized data handling systems.
- Highquality written and oral communication skills and ability to interact effectively with interdisciplinary scientists and engineers.
- Practical knowledge of organic structure functional groups chemistry and modern spectroscopic techniques as applied to smallmolecule analytical analysis.
- Builds strong relationships with peers and cross functionally with partners outside of team to enable higher performance.
- Learns fast grasps the essence and can change course quickly where indicated.
- Creates a learning environment open to suggestions and experimentation for improvement.
- Embraces the ideas of others nurtures innovation and manages innovation to reality
