Job Description:

• Role of analytical SME for proteincharacterization of complexbiologic material (i.e.,Protein Separation, HPLC, MS, Raman, Fluorescence)
• Manage the development of analytical methodsand subsequent validations (ie enzyme activity methods, molecular assays, potency assays) .
• Oversee quality controland stability testingof the product at ContractTesting Laboratories (CTLs) and/or Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs).
• Provide content and author for sections relatedto analytical methods,product specifications, and product stability in biologics regulatory submissions.
• Coordinate analytical methodstransfers to and between CMOs and CTLs.
• Contribute (as analytical SME) to investigation and resolution of out-of-specification (OOS) and out-of-trend (OOT) testing results.
• Work collaboratively with manufacturing/supply chain,quality assurance and CMC project management to ensure timely availability of lot release and stability data and to ensure adequate planning for stability supplies.
• Support formulation development of dosage forms.
• Support creation/execution of in-vitro dissolution packages for purposesof formulation bridging during clinical development and in support of commercial lifecycle management.
