R&D / Process Development Iron Complexes - JG

Location: Vapi, Gujarat (In‑Office)

Experience: 5–7 Years

Qualification: M.Sc. / M.Tech. in Chemistry, Pharmaceutical Chemistry, or related field

About The Role

We are looking for an experienced R&D professional to work on iron‑based pharmaceutical products. The role involves process development, optimization, troubleshooting, scale‑up, and technology transfer for injectable/API formulations.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and optimize iron complexes (ferric/ferrous) and related products.
• Conduct lab and pilot‑scale experiments for new product development.
• Work on reaction chemistry, complex formation, precipitation, oxidation/reduction.
• Develop processes for iron sucrose, ferric carboxymaltose, iron polymaltose, iron isomaltoside.
• Optimize product quality (molecular weight, particle size, solubility, stability, purity).
• Troubleshoot yield, precipitation, and batch consistency issues.
• Document process parameters, reports, and scale‑up protocols.
• Collaborate with QC, QA, Production, and Engineering teams.
• Support pilot trials, validation batches, and technology transfer.
  
  

Desired Skills

• Strong knowledge of iron chemistry and coordination chemistry.
• Hands‑on experience in iron complex/API development.
• Understanding of oxidation/reduction chemistry and process parameters.
• Experience in process optimization and scale‑up.
• Ability to correlate process parameters with analytical results.
• Strong troubleshooting and documentation skills.
  
  

Preferred Background

• Candidates with direct experience in pharmaceutical/API injectable iron products will be highly preferred.
• Exposure to process development, scale‑up, and tech transfer in pharma manufacturing.
