Pharmacist

The role

You will design oral solid-dose and sterile injectable formulations for cognitive, performance, and longevity compounds. You will manage formulation standards, bench work, analytical testing, and technical documentation.

What you will do

• Design oral solid-dose formulations including excipient selection
• Design sterile injectable formulations for peptide pipeline
• Own encapsulation, blending, and aseptic processing end to end
• Develop techniques for poorly-soluble or low-dose actives
• Build and run the analytical backbone including dissolution and stability programs
• Write master formulation records, batch records, specifications, and SOPs
• Partner with sourcing and QC on raw-material specs and supplier qualification

Required qualifications

• Approbation als Apotheker/in (German pharmacist license), or an EU-recognized pharmacy qualification with a clear path to German licensure, or a degree in pharmaceutics, pharmaceutical sciences, or in
• 5+ years of hands-on formulation experience in pharma, nutraceutical, compounding, or contract manufacturing covering oral solid dose and at least one of: sterile injectables, topicals
• Deep working knowledge of excipient functionality and compatibility, and of encapsulation/tableting unit operations
• Practical command of dissolution, content uniformity, and stability study design and interpretation
• Experience formulating poorly-soluble or low-dose actives
• Working command of EU GMP (EudraLex Vol. 4), Annex 1 (sterile manufacturing), and the Apothekenbetriebsordnung (ApBetrO) or equivalent manufacturing-pharmacy framework
• Rigor with documentation: batch records, specs, SOPs, and a clean data trail

Nice to have

• Sterile injectable / lyophilization experience - peptide formulations specifically
• Background in a German Herstellungsapotheke, hospital pharmacy compounding unit, or EU-licensed contract manufacturer
• Experience formulating GLP-1 analogs (semaglutide, tirzepatide) or other peptide manufacturing under a quality-grade framework
• Familiarity with cognitive/performance compounds, or with the broader peptide / longevity therapeutic landscape
• Hands-on with HPLC, dissolution apparatus, particle sizing, Karl Fischer titration
• Comfort owning scale-up from R&D batches to production
• Working proficiency in German (regulatory and documentation context) and English (team working language)

Benefits

• Senior IC seat building the formulation function from scratch
• Pre-approved capex to spec equipment
