We support projects from early development through commercialization, with a specific focus on select agents for therapeutic and aesthetic use. This position requires laboratory work in areas requiring select agents (i.e., Biosafety level 2 laboratories).

The ideal candidate will have hands-on experience with analytical techniques used for protein characterization and stability testing, as well as a demonstrated ability to drive innovative science in a team setting. Experience with laboratory automation, automated sample preparation, high-throughput screening, instrument integration, or automated data workflows is highly desirable.

Responsibilities

• Plans and executes product formulation & process development activities in support of the development of new products intended for new biologic entities and life-cycle management of marketed products with a focus on highly potent biologic drug products.
• Generate high-quality data based on sound scientific principles and prepare formulation data summaries, technical reports, scientific presentations, and regulatory documents.
• Participate in drug product development teams and contribute to the planning and execution of product development studies including formulation and drug product process development, based on project goals and timelines.
• Actively interact with CMC members and other AbbVie stakeholders to enable the successful development of AbbVie drug products.

• Hands-on experience working with highly potent compounds within a Biosafety Level 2 (BSL-2) laboratory environment, highly preferred.
• Candidates with hands-on experience in analytical techniques used for protein characterization and stability testing will be preferred (e.g., SPR, DLS, MFI)
• Prior experience with Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) for screening and assessing formulation stability is preferred. The ideal candidate will have experience using SPR-generated data to evaluate protein stability and support formulation development and optimization.
• Prior experience with sustained release formulation development including characterization is preferred.
• Prior experience in the development of liquid protein product formulations in vial as well as lyophilization expertise is desirable.
• Prior experience with aseptic processing and drug product manufacturing process tech transfer is preferred.
• Prior experience with automation, data analysis, and high-throughput approaches in protein formulation, characterization, stability testing, or manufacturing processes is preferred.
• Candidates must be detail-oriented and highly organized.
• Demonstrated ability to drive innovative science and solve complex problems is highly preferred.
