Position Overview

This position influences the early synthetic small molecule candidate selection from a physical- chemical, drug delivery and bioperformance perspective through close collaboration with partners on the Research project teams. The successful hire will be the subject matter expert to inform, educate, and influence the teams in prioritizing the candidate molecules with desirable drug delivery and performance properties. This will include the assessment of in silico, in vitro and in vivo data as well as the design of stage- appropriate formulations for preclinical studies. In addition, you will be responsible for advancing the molecule into the clinical phase through developing the appropriate formulation to enhance exposure and attain clinical efficacy in the clinical stages of development.

Key Requirements

• We are looking for a candidate with a strong technical background and experience in oral drug product development for small molecule modality, and hands on experience with developing conventional and enabling formulations.

• In-depth knowledge in process development, optimization and control strategy for drug product manufacture ranging from laboratory scale (R&D) to pilot/production scale (GMP)

• Strong experience in technology transfer and working with CROs/CMOs for oral drug product development and GMP manufacture

• Strong background in applying and scientific and statistical approaches in DoE and data analysis/interpretation

Work location
