• The Client Device Development & Technology (DD&T) Team is seeking a hands-on/ lab-focused Scientist focused on the characterization and testing of devices (components, sub-assemblies, and full devices) and combination products (drug-delivery products).
• This position will be responsible for technical interrogation of the various drug delivery device technology platforms supporting Client’s pipeline to identify risks (i.e. when/why/how will the device fail) and opportunities for improvement.
• They will utilize a wide variety of cutting-edge analytical instruments, methods, and extensive data analysis/interpretation to build fundamental understanding of the device’s material and functional properties and attributes.
• Many of the drug delivery device technology platforms are often assemblages of injection molded plastic components driving delivery of a drug, typically though mechanical (i.e. compress/torsion spring, compressed gas) or electro-mechanical (i.e. DC motor and battery driving a gearbox) means. Examples include, but not limited to, injector pens, on-body injectors, and inhalers. At this early stage of evaluation material is often limited and will demand creative approaches.
