Formulation Scientist

As a Formulation Scientist, you will be involved in the formulation and the stability of the drug product and the production intermediaries:

Responsibilities

• Work on the formulation of the existing production batches (liquid formulations).
• Develop different formulations depending on the application (spray dried, encapsulation).
• Conduct stability studies to ensure the quality of the different products. A key priority will be ensuring the stability of phages in the field, especially at higher temperatures.
• Evaluate the impact of the existing formulation and other products used commonly in the field.
• Explore the addition of adjuvants (such as prebiotics, probiotics, vitamins, or others) to the established drug product to support animal wellbeing.
• Benchmark and buy the appropriate equipment depending on the strategy chosen to develop the formulation laboratory.
• Collaborate with CDMOs (formulation platform).
• Write the appropriate deliverables (regulatory documents, protocols etc) and present the results.

Qualifications

• PhD / engineer in biochemistry, galenic or any related fields or a Pharmaceutical degree (Bioindustry).
• At least 5 years of experience in similar work fields.
