- Scientific Problem Solving: Lead complex deviation investigations and root cause analyses (using tools like Ishikawa or Kepner-Tregoe) to ensure robust CAPA implementation.
- Regulatory & CMC Excellence: Author and review CMC sections for regulatory submissions and variations, ensuring alignment with GMP, ICH, and global health authority expectations.
- Innovation: Deploy Process Analytical Technology (PAT) tools (NIR, in-line monitoring) and optimize manufacturing sequences for multi-layer and multi-component dosage forms.
Your Profile:
- Education: MSc or PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences, Chemical Engineering, or a related field (or a Bachelor’s with significant equivalent experience).
- Experience: 5-10 years of expertise in OSD formulation, process development, and manufacturing support, with a proven track record in regulatory submissions.
