Role & responsibilities Process Development: Conduct research and design experiments to develop and optimize synthetic routes for API molecules. Perform literature searches for identified API molecules to determine synthesis routes, polymorphs, and analytical methods. Conduct experimental trials to assess feasibility and optimize designed synthetic routes for API molecules. Documentation: Record all experiments in the laboratory notebook (LNB) and maintain corresponding analytical data in organized folders. Design synthetic routes for the synthesis and isolation of impurities and reference standards. Ensure all documentation meets Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) and regulatory standards. Safety and Compliance: Adhere to all safety protocols and ensure a safe working environment in the laboratory. Develop non-infringing synthetic processes based on literature, raw material availability, and polymorph studies. Stay up-to-date with industry trends, regulatory guidelines, and advancements in chemical synthesis and analytical techniques.Team Collaboration: Plan daily activities for team members, focusing on feasibility studies, process optimization, and laboratory validation. Work closely with the Analytical Research and Development (ARD) team on method development, in-process testing, and reference standards qualification. Qualifications: Education: MSc/BSc in Organic Chemistry, Experience: Minimum of 3-5 years of experience in process development and optimization in the pharmaceutical or bulk drug industry. Skills: Strong knowledge of synthetic organic chemistry and process chemistry. Proficiency in using and interpreting data from analytical instruments. Excellent problem-solving skills and attention to detail. EZective communication and teamwork skills. Ability to work independently and manage multiple projects simultaneously. Preferred candidate profile We are looking for a talented and driven R&D Chemist to join our team. The successful candidate will be responsible for developing and optimizing chemical processes for synthesizing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). This role requires a strong background in synthetic organic chemistry, process development, and scale-up techniques. The R&D Chemist will collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure the smooth transition of processes from the lab to full-scale production. Perks and benefits
