Entry Level Film Script Reader Jobs in Florida (NOW HIRING)

About the Role

The R&D Pharmacy Technician supports the development, evaluation, and scale-up of compounded pharmaceutical preparations and innovative dosage forms. You'll work closely with Product Development Scientists on formulation trials, compounding activities, process optimization, equipment operation, documentation, and stability studies - all while ensuring compliance with USP standards, cGMP principles, company procedures, and regulatory requirements.

We're specifically looking for an already-experienced compounding pharmacy technician - this is not an entry-level role. An active Florida State Pharmacy Technician License is required, no exceptions. If you're proactive, open-minded, hungry to grow, and comfortable owning a project from start to finish with minimal oversight, this role is for you.

What You'll Do

Formulation Development Support

• Assist in preparing prototype formulations for capsules, tablets, troches, oral dissolving films (ODF), oral dissolving tablets (ODT), suspensions, solutions, creams, gels, and other compounded dosage forms
• Accurately weigh, measure, and prepare raw materials according to approved formulations and batch records
• Support formulation optimization studies and trial batch execution
• Prepare laboratory-scale and pilot-scale batches for evaluation

Compounding Operations

• Perform compounding activities according to approved Master Formulation Records (MFRs)
• Operate and clean compounding equipment, including mixers/blenders, tablet presses, capsule filling equipment, triple roll mills, film casting equipment, balances, and lab instruments
• Assist in troubleshooting manufacturing and formulation issues

Documentation & Data Management

• Complete batch records, laboratory notebooks, and test request forms accurately
• Enter formulation and batch information into electronic formulation management systems
• Maintain records of experiments, observations, and formulation changes
• Assist with preparation of technical reports and development summaries

Material & Inventory Management

• Receive, label, and organize APIs, excipients, flavors, colors, and packaging materials
• Monitor laboratory inventory and notify management of material shortages
• Ensure proper storage and handling of pharmaceutical materials

Quality & Compliance

• Follow USP <795>, USP <797>, USP <800>, and company SOP requirements as applicable
• Maintain a clean, organized, and inspection-ready laboratory environment
• Assist with stability studies, sample preparation, and product evaluations
• Participate in investigations, CAPAs, and continuous improvement initiatives

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Work closely with R&D Scientists, Pharmacists, Production, Quality Assurance, and Quality Control teams
• Support technology transfer and scale-up activities from development to production
• Assist in product launches and validation activities

What We're Looking For

Required:

• Active Florida State Pharmacy Technician License
• High School Diploma or GED
• 5+ years of pharmacy technician, compounding, pharmaceutical manufacturing, or laboratory experience - already experienced in compounding strongly preferred
• Knowledge of pharmaceutical calculations and weighing techniques
• Familiarity with USP compounding standards
• Ability to read and follow formulation records and SOPs
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications
• Ability to stand for extended periods and lift 50-60 pounds

Preferred:

• Pharmacy Technician Certification (CPhT)
• Associate degree in Pharmacy Technology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Chemistry, Biology, or a related field
• Experience in a compounding pharmacy or pharmaceutical environment

Who Thrives Here

• Proactive - anticipates needs and takes initiative rather than waiting to be told
• Growth-minded - eager to learn, take on new challenges, and develop professionally
• Open-minded - receptive to new ideas, feedback, and better ways of doing things
• Accountable - owns the process from A to Z and follows through on commitments
• Independent - comfortable working with minimal supervision and managing their own workload
