Quality Control (QC) Chemist

Fall River, MA

$65K - $105K/yr

Job description

Quality Control (QC) Chemist - Inhalation Products (MDI Focus)

Location: Fall River, MA (On-site)
Schedule: 8:30 AM - 5:00 PM (flex based on production/testing needs)
Salary: $65,000 - $105,000 (based on expertise, especially inhalation experience)


  Bring Precision to Every Breath

Step into a critical role where science meets patient impact. As a QC Chemist specializing in inhalation products, you'll play a vital role in ensuring the safety, quality, and performance of metered dose inhalers (MDIs) and related dosage forms that patients rely on every day.

This is not your average QC role-here, you'll work on complex aerosol and particle-based delivery systems, applying advanced analytical techniques to confirm product integrity and regulatory compliance in a highly controlled cGMP environment.


  What You'll Do

Analytical Testing & Expertise

  • Perform routine and advanced QC testing for pharmaceutical dosage forms, with a strong focus on inhalation products (MDI/DPI systems)
  • Evaluate critical quality attributes (CQA) such as particle size distribution, spray pattern, plume geometry, and dose uniformity
  • Operate and maintain advanced instrumentation:
    • Gas Chromatography (GC)
    • Particle Size Analyzers (e.g., laser diffraction, cascade impaction)
    • ICP (trace elemental analysis)
  • Execute specialized inhalation testing protocols including propellant-based system assessments

Material & Product Understanding

  • Apply working knowledge of raw materials, propellants, excipients, and canister/valve systems specific to aerosol delivery
  • Support testing across multiple dosage forms (solid oral, liquids, injectables, topical, and inhalation platforms)

Data Integrity & Investigations

  • Ensure strict adherence to cGMP, data integrity standards, and ALCOA principles
  • Investigate OOS, deviations, and atypical results, contributing to root cause analysis and corrective actions

Documentation & Compliance

  • Maintain accurate, audit-ready documentation aligned with FDA and regulatory expectations
  • Follow and continuously improve SOPs in a structured QC environment

  What Makes You a Strong Candidate

Education & Technical Background

  • Bachelor's degree in Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or Physics (highly preferred fields aligned with role expectations)
  • Strong foundation in analytical techniques and data interpretation

Industry Experience

  • Proven experience in a pharmaceutical QC environment (required)
  • Hands-on exposure to multiple dosage forms, especially:
    • Tablets/Capsules
    • Liquid formulations
    • Injectables
    • Topicals
    • MDI/DPI inhalation products (highly preferred)

Functional Expertise

  • Experience specifically in Quality Control roles (primary function)
  • Comfortable working in a fully onsite, regulated lab environment with fixed schedules and SOP-driven workflows
  • Strong communication skills and ability to interpret, document, and present scientific findings

  Work Environment
  • Operate in a state-of-the-art cGMP laboratory handling solvents, powders, and aerosol systems
  • Required use of PPE: lab coats, safety glasses, respirators, etc.
  • May include shift flexibility (day/evening/night) and occasional weekends based on production demands

  Physical Requirements
  • Stand/walk for extended periods (~75% of shift)
  • Lift up to 10 kg as needed
  • Perform detailed lab work requiring precision and focus

  Why This Role Stands Out

Inhalation Expertise - Work on advanced drug delivery systems that directly impact respiratory health
Technical Depth - Go beyond routine testing into specialized aerosol science and complex analytics
Career Growth - Build niche expertise in a high-demand domain within pharmaceuticals
Quality at the Core - Be a trusted gatekeeper ensuring every product meets the highest standards


  Important Notes
  • This is a fully onsite role (no remote or hybrid options)
  • Candidates must be authorized to work in the U.S. (no sponsorship available)
