Cipla Jobs Information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Quality Control Chemist, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Quality Control Chemist, you need a solid background in chemistry, analytical techniques, and a relevant bachelor's degree in chemistry or a related field. Familiarity with laboratory instruments like HPLC, GC, and spectrophotometers, as well as knowledge of regulatory standards such as GMP or ISO, is typically required. Attention to detail, problem-solving ability, and strong organizational skills are crucial soft skills for this role. These competencies ensure the accuracy, reliability, and compliance of product testing, which are vital for product safety and quality assurance.

What are some common challenges faced by Quality Control Chemists in maintaining consistent testing standards across different production batches?

Quality Control Chemists often encounter challenges in ensuring consistency due to variations in raw materials, equipment calibration, and environmental conditions. Addressing these issues requires diligent documentation, regular equipment maintenance, and strict adherence to standard operating procedures. Effective communication with production and R&D teams is also essential to quickly resolve discrepancies and implement corrective actions, ensuring that all products meet quality and regulatory standards.

What are Quality Control Chemists?

Quality Control Chemists are professionals who analyze and test materials and products to ensure they meet required standards and specifications. Their primary responsibility is to conduct laboratory tests on raw materials, in-process samples, and finished products using various chemical and analytical techniques. They document their findings, maintain laboratory equipment, and collaborate with other departments to resolve quality issues. Quality Control Chemists play a vital role in industries such as pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, and manufacturing to ensure product safety and compliance with regulations.

What is the difference between Quality Control Chemist vs Quality Assurance Technician?

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)
