Advisor, Drug Product Process Development

Responsibilities

• Design, execute, and oversee experiments for technical development and scale-up of lipid nanoparticle (LNP) drug product processes.
• Independently drive LNP platform science; identify knowledge gaps and translate formulation science into robust, scalable manufacturing processes.

• PhD, MS, or BS in chemical engineering, biomedical engineering, pharmaceutical sciences, chemistry, biology, or related field (PhD: 0–5 yrs; MS: 7+ yrs; BS: 10+ yrs).
• Hands‑on formulation and process development in carrier‑based or complex drug product systems (e.g., LNPs, liposomes, emulsions, microspheres, advanced delivery platforms).
• Working knowledge of fluid mixing dynamics, particle self‑assembly, and surface chemistry; characterization methods (e.g., DLS, Ribogreen, Cryo-EM).
• Track record of independently designing/executing experiments; proactively identify knowledge gaps and propose structured plans.

• Experience with filtration technologies (e.g., TFF hollow fibers, flat sheets, depth filtration).
• Experience in a matrixed CMC environment with cross‑functional collaboration (manufacturing, analytical development, formulation).
• Strong oral/written communication; present complex technical information to diverse audiences.
• Organized, collaborative; manage multiple priorities in a fast‑paced environment.

• Lab environment; travel
