- Experience in purification at pilot and manufacturing scale, ideally in a regulated environment (GMP preferred);
- Proficiency in chromatographic software and method modeling tools;
- Excellent troubleshooting, documentation, and communication skills;
- Knowledge of downstream unit operations beyond chromatography (ultrafiltration/diafiltration, lyophilization, crystallization).
Preferred Experience
- Industrial experience in peptide therapeutics, CDMO, or specialty chemicals;
- Familiarity with continuous chromatography, simulated moving bed systems, or preparative UPLC.
Key Competencies
- Strong technical leadership and ownership of purification workflows;
