  • Partner cross-functionally with Regulatory, Quality, Marketing, Manufacturing, and Supply Chain teams to support successful product launches
  • Drive innovation by identifying emerging trends in delivery formats, ingredients, and consumer preferences while guiding ingredient and vendor selection
  • Ensure compliance with FDA regulations, OTC monographs, dietary supplement guidelines, cGMP standards, and provide technical leadership, troubleshooting, and mentorship across projects

About you:

  • Proven experience with OTC oral products, dietary supplements, or functional confections
  • Demonstrated success in commercializing products from concept to launch
  • Deep expertise in gummy and oral delivery formulation science, including hydrocolloid systems, API compatibility, moisture control, shelf-life optimization, taste masking, and sugar-free technologies
  • Strong understanding of commercial manufacturing processes including cooking, depositing, molding, drying, coating, and finishing, with experience partnering with CDMOs and vendor network
