Job description


About Southend Pharmacy

Southend Pharmacy is a modern 503A compounding pharmacy built on clinical precision, operational clarity, and a human-first approach. Licensed in 35+ states and focused on longevity-aligned therapeutics, we support providers and their patients with precision in compounding and transparent processes.

About the Role

Southend's R&D / Formulations team is the engine behind our growing longevity and wellness portfolio — from GLP-1s and peptides to B12/glutathione injectables and a full range of non-sterile dosage forms. We're looking for a hands-on Research Compounding Pharmacist ready to develop formulations, build out clinical/regulatory documentation, and grow with a fast-scaling 503A pharmacy.

This role partners closely with pharmacy operations, quality, regulatory, and leadership to design safe, compliant, and scalable formulations — spanning both sterile injectables and a wide range of non-sterile dosage forms (capsules, creams, gels, tablets, troches, rapid-dissolving tablets, and more). Current products include tirzepatide, semaglutide, B12, glutathione, and an expanding peptide line, with new products launching regularly.

What You'll Do

Formulation & Product Development

  • Design, develop, and optimize sterile and non-sterile formulations across a wide range of dosage forms
  • Support sterile compounding in the clean room (vialing, mixing) alongside sterile technicians and pharmacists
  • Conduct formulation trials, stability studies, compatibility testing, and feasibility assessments
  • Help expand the product portfolio as new peptides and therapeutics come online

Clinical Documentation & Regulatory Writing

  • Create clear, clinically sound specification sheets covering common side effects, and contraindications
  • Develop well-referenced dosing protocols for new and existing products, with accurate, properly formatted citations
  • Draft and review SOPs and master formulation records (MFRs)
  • Support regulatory submissions, internal audits, and inspections as needed

Regulatory & Compliance

  • Ensure all R&D activities comply with USP <795>, <797>, and <800>, FDA guidance, and applicable state regulations

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Partner with operations to transfer formulations into production
  • Work with Quality Assurance on investigations, deviations, and CAPAs related to formulations
  • Provide technical guidance and training to pharmacists and technicians

Continuous Improvement

  • Identify opportunities to improve product quality, efficiency, and scalability
  • Evaluate new ingredients, technologies, and equipment
  • Contribute to strategic planning for the product pipeline
What We're Looking For

Required

  • PharmD, BS in Pharmacy, or foreign pharmacy degree with an active Texas pharmacist license
  • 2–5 years of hands-on experience in compounding pharmacy, formulation development, or pharmaceutical R&D — ideally at a 503A or 503B pharmacy
  • Comfortable with hands-on lab work (compounding, vialing) — this is not a supervisory or PIC-level role
  • Strong written communication skills: able to produce accurate, regulatory-compliant, well-cited clinical documents
  • Working knowledge of USP <795>, <797>, and <800>
  • Willingness to relocate to the Houston area for this onsite role

Preferred

  • Sterile compounding experience strongly preferred; non-sterile experience highly valued (ideally both)
  • Clinical experience developing dosing protocols
  • Published work or strong scientific/technical writing background
  • Board Certification in Sterile Compounding (BCSCP) or equivalent
  • Experience with peptides, hormones, injectables, or complex dosage forms
  • Familiarity with pharmacy management or compounding software (training provided)
Benefits

Full benefits package including medical, vision, dental, 401(k) with company match, PTO, flex days, holidays, and more!

Southend Pharmacy is unable to offer visa sponsorship at this time. Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the United States without current or future sponsorship.
