  • Ensure safety and GxP requirements are followed while performing laboratory activities.
  • Deliver high-quality, precise data in a timely and GxP-compliant manner.
  • Utilize word processing, spreadsheets, and instrument-related computer systems.
  • Present experimental findings and scientific results to larger audiences.
  • The core laboratory responsibilities are drawn directly from the supplied job description.
Required Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, Medical Technology, Biology, or a related field with a minimum of five years of laboratory experience, or a Master's degree with a minimum of two years of laboratory experience.
  • Strong background in chemistry fundamentals and demonstrated laboratory research experience.
  • Experienced use of analytical instrumentation including HPLC, Gas Chromatography, LC/MS, UV/VIS, MS, ICP, and related laboratory techniques.
  • Experience with chromatography data systems such as Empower, OpenLab, or Chromeleon.
  • Familiarity with GMP, GLP, and working within a regulated laboratory environment.
  • Strong documentation and data interpretation skills.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to present experimental findings to larger groups.
  • These requirements reflect the stated education/experience thresholds and analytical-instrument expectations in the source.
Preferred Qualifications:
  • Laboratory experience within the pharmaceutical industry.
  • Experience preparing or delivering scientific research presentations.
  • Research publications or demonstrated experience presenting findings to scientific organizations.
  • Strong working knowledge of analytical instrumentation and demonstrated hands-on laboratory skills.
  • The source specifically identifies research presentations/publications and pharmaceutical-industry experience as preferred rather than universally required.
Schedule:
  • Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
  • Occasional weekend work may be required.
  • Position is 100% onsite.
Benefits:

The Company offers the following benefits for this position, subject to applicable eligibility requirements: medical insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, 401(k) retirement plan, life insurance, long-term disability insurance, short-term disability insurance, paid parking/public transportation, paid time off, paid sick and safe time, hours of paid vacation time, weeks of paid parental leave, and paid holidays annually – as applicable.
