Associate Scientist

We are seeking a CW Associate Scientist to support technical transfer and lifecycle-management activities for commercial drug product fill-finish processes. The individual will support transfers between development and manufacturing sites and will work closely with Process Development, Manufacturing, Quality, Regulatory, Analytical Sciences, Engineering, and other cross-functional partners

The role will emphasize preparation and review of technical transfer documentation, study protocols, reports, process assessments, product impact assessments, and regulatory-support documents. The candidate will also support process characterization and laboratory-based activities as needed

The successful candidate will have a strong understanding of end-to-end drug product manufacturing, including formulation, mixing, hold operations, sterile filtration, filling, lyophilization, and product-contact systems. Time will be divided between supporting laboratory and process-development activities and developing clear, scientifically rigorous technical documentatio
