Build Something Meaningful With Us
At Mint Health + Drugs, we believe pharmacy should be personal.

We're looking for an experienced Registered Pharmacy Technician with a passion for non-sterile compounding to join our specialized team at Blue Bottle Pharmacy.

Supervising pharmacy assistants in preparing capsules, creams, ointments, gels, liquids and other customized dosage forms

Compliance with applicable Mint policies, procedures and compounding standards
You’ll be expected to consistently follow established procedures while speaking up when something doesn’t look right.
Help Us Improve How We Compound
We’re looking for more than someone who simply completes the day’s production.
As part of our specialized compounding team, you’ll be encouraged to identify opportunities to make our processes safer, faster and more consistent.
This could include:
Improving prescription entry and preparation workflows
Helping streamline pharmaceutical calculations and commonly used formulations
