Job Description OBJECTIVE : Synthetic Molecule Process Development (SMPD) is responsible for developing robust and cost-effective processes for manufacturing new small molecule pharmaceuticals, ensuring high standards of purity and quality through advanced process design and control strategies. The Staff Engineer – Process Modeling will join a dynamic and innovative team of engineers and scientists within SMPD’s Process Engineering & Technology Group, focusing on crystallization modeling and particle engineering. The successful candidate will have a strong background in crystallization science, particle engineering, and process modeling, tackling challenges related to crystal nucleation, growth, polymorphism, and particle size distribution control. They will leverage expertise in thermodynamics, kinetics, transport phenomena, and population balance modeling to develop in-silico approaches for crystallization process design and optimization. Additionally, the Staff Engineer will be involved in scale-up and scale-down modeling of crystallization, wet milling, and solid-liquid separation processes, integrating both first-principles and data-driven models. The role includes the application of process analytical technologies (PAT) in combination with mathematical models (both mechanistic and statistical) to enhance process understanding and enable data-rich experimentation. These approaches will drive the design, optimization, scale-up, and troubleshooting of crystallization and particle engineering processes, ensuring robust pharmaceutical manufacturing through digital and in-silico methodologies. ACCOUNTABILITIES : Contributes to the design, development, optimization, and scale-up of crystallization and particle engineering processes for synthetic molecule drug substances using process modeling and simulation principles. Utilizes advanced process modeling tools, population balance models (PBM), and digital twin functionalities, implementing model-based design of experiments (MBDoE) for process characterization, risk assessment, and control strategy development. Develops experimental designs and workflows for model development, validation, and verification, with a focus on crystal nucleation, growth kinetics, polymorphism control, and particle size distribution (PSD) engineering. Collaborates with cross-functional teams and external partners to develop and deploy digital twins of crystallization, wet milling, and solid-liquid separation unit operations. Partners with Automation, Manufacturing, Process Engineers, and PAT experts to develop modeling and simulation (M&S) solutions that can be deployed across the global organization for in-silico process design, development, and optimization. Recommends, justifies, and implements in-silico tools and an "in-silico first” approach for crystallization and particle engineering. Authors reports, and peer-reviewed manuscripts, conference presentations.
