Manufacturing actively recruits candidates who have strong technical and interpersonal skills. We seek academic degrees from bachelor to doctoral levels in pharmacy, chemistry, and the life sciences. When new processes are brought into manufacturing from research or outside licensures, scientists work on teams to support diverse processing techniques. Ranging from traditional organic synthesis to recombinant DNA technology, these skilled teams are essential to the start-up and continued development effort. Biologists implement complex bioanalytical techniques throughout the Quality Control laboratories.
Pharmacists optimize the development of final pharmaceutical dosage forms.
These activities culminate when the first manufactured dosage form is produced. As a scientist, you will derive great professional and personal satisfaction from helping to bring life-saving drugs to the marketplace. After introducing the process into manufacturing, these scientists continue to optimize existing processes to increase productivity. For example, they develop genetically engineered organisms to produce fermentation products and incorporate new synthetic and isolation methods. They also develop formulations and implement new sterilization and packaging techniques.
