We do this together, as One Team - we rise by lifting others up and believe in the power of working together for the collective win. That's why we need you-to help us make a significant impact by taking on increasingly complex challenges, leaping beyond the status quo, advancing our mission and making our One Team culture thrive.
Join us as a Director, Analytical Development, and you'll be part of a culture that welcomes diversity, thinks differently to solve problems, works collaboratively as one team, and delivers meaningful innovations that impact people's lives.
How you will make an impact:
The Director, Biochemistry and Microbiology, will lead Analytical Development activities supporting the characterization, method development, qualification, transfer, and release testing of Hypercon drug products and in-process samples. This role provides scientific and people leadership for a multidisciplinary team, partners cross-functionally to advance product development goals, and ensures analytical strategies are phase-appropriate, scientifically rigorous, and aligned with applicable regulatory expectations.
In this role, you'll have the opportunity to:
  • Lead the development, qualification, transfer, troubleshooting, and lifecycle management of phase-appropriate analytical methods for characterization, in-process testing, and release testing of Hypercon drug products.
  • Set technical strategy for assays addressing product purity, impurity profiling, microbiological quality, excipient quantification and other critical quality attributes, leveraging relevant experience, regulatory guidance, and Quality-by-Design principles.
  • Lead, develop, and manage a multidisciplinary technical team, including resource planning, prioritization, mentoring, performance development, and continuous improvement of team effectiveness.
  • Plan, execute, document, analyze, and interpret experiments, and communicate results and recommendations clearly to multidisciplinary and cross-functional teams.
  • Provide technical leadership to resolve scientific and operational issues within the team and contribute to problem solving across Analytical Development and other technical functions.
  • Author and review SOPs, method and instrument qualification protocols, technical reports, certificates of analysis/testing, and CMC sections of regulatory filings.
  • Oversee interactions with partners and contract research organizations to support method transfer, method qualification, troubleshooting, data review, and delivery of high-quality analytical results.
  • Serve as a subject matter expert for investigations of out-of-specification and out-of-trend analytical results, including root-cause analysis, corrective actions, and data trending.
  • Collaborate with Analytical Development leaders and cross-functional partners to ensure analytical methods and testing strategies are aligned with product development goals and program timelines.
  • Maintain current knowledge of industry trends, emerging analytical technologies, and applicable regulatory requirements.
  • Maintain safe laboratory working conditions and ensure adherence to applicable environmental, health, and safety guidelines.
  • Experience or technical knowledge across a broad spectrum of biologic modalities.
  • Experience with additional analytical techniques such as GC, density measurements, and general biophysical characterization techniques.
  • Working knowledge of LIMS, Empower, electronic laboratory notebooks, and data trending tools.
  • Ability to recognize emerging technical risks, anticipate issues within or outside Analytical Development, and propose practical analytical solutions.
  • Experience mentoring technical staff at multiple levels within and outside of own team.

Requirements
To succeed in this role, you'll need:
  • PhD preferred in Analytical Chemistry, Physical Chemistry, Materials Science, Biochemistry, Microbiology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, or a related field, with a minimum of 8 years of relevant industry experience.
  • Prior experience in analytical CMC and demonstrated management of a multidisciplinary technical team of approximately 5-10 staff.
  • Strong background in analytical method development, qualification, characterization, transfer, troubleshooting, and data interpretation for protein therapeutics and related biologic modalities.
  • Hands-on experience or strong technical knowledge of biochemistry based analytical techniques, including UV-visible spectroscopy, HPLC, UPLC, CE, hyphenated mass spectrometry methods, and in vitro release time.
  • Working knowledge of microbiological methods, including sterility, bioburden, and endotoxin testing.
  • Prior experience working with contract research organizations or external testing laboratories.
  • Strong understanding of cGMP, GLP, and regulatory expectations in a pharmaceutical development setting.
  • Demonstrated ability to communicate Analytical Development strategy and results cross-functionally, influence through collaboration, and contribute analytical solutions across development programs.
  • Demonstrated ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced, collaborative R&D environment while maintaining high attention to detail, accurate documentation, and strong data review practices.
  • Excellent critical thinking, problem-solving, verbal communication, and written communication skills.

Travel may be required for up to 10% time.
In return, we offer you:
  • Full and comprehensive benefit program, including an Employee Stock Purchase Program and 401(k) matching.
  • Opportunities to grow in a culture that prioritizes learning, development and progression through in-house programs and tuition reimbursement.
  • A collaborative, innovative team that works as one to amplify your impact-on your career, the work you do and patients' lives.
