About Molecule
Molecule develops infrastructure for decentralized science through its Molecule Protocol. Its flagship Labs combine ERC-721 NFTs, ERC-6551 token-bound accounts, ERC-4337 account abstraction, ERC-7579 modularity, and ERC-7484 attestation to provide persistent onchain identities for research projects. The platform supports encrypted and provenance-tracked research data, tokenized intellectual property, transparent fundraising, role-based access, APIs, AI agents such as MIRA, and legal mechanisms connecting onchain research projects with companies and equity. Its users include early-stage biotech researchers and scientist-founders, funders, developers, AI agents, and broader scientific and Web3 communities.
Skills
Candidate Availability
Required and preferred rules are kept separate and reflect the wording in the original posting.
About the Role
You'll set formulation standards for cognitive, performance, and longevity compounds, run bench work, defend excipient and sterility decisions, and take actives from raw properties through qualified drug products with rigorous documentation.
Requirements
- German pharmacist license or qualifying pharmacy/pharmaceutics degree with equivalent formulation depth.
- 5+ years of hands-on formulation experience covering oral solid dose and sterile injectables or topicals.
- Deep knowledge of excipient functionality, encapsulation, and tableting operations.
- Practical command of dissolution, content uniformity, and stability studies.
- Experience with poorly soluble or low-dose actives.
- Working knowledge of EU GMP, Annex 1, and ApBetrO or an equivalent framework.
- Strong documentation discipline covering batch records, specifications, SOPs, and data trails.
- Strongly preferred: sterile injectable or lyophilization experience, peptide formulation, German manufacturing-pharmacy experience, HPLC, particle sizing, Karl Fischer titration, scale-up, and German and English proficiency.
Responsibilities
- Design oral solid-dose formulations including capsules and tablets.
- Design sterile injectable peptide formulations, including lyophilization, fill/finish, and reconstitution protocols.
- Own encapsulation, blending, aseptic processing, powder characterization, uniformity, and scale-up.
- Solve formulation challenges for small-molecule and peptide actives.
- Build analytical programs covering dissolution, potency, uniformity, sterility, endotoxin, and stability.
- Write and enforce master formulation records, batch records, specifications, and SOPs.
- Partner with sourcing and QC on raw-material specifications, API characterization, and supplier qualification.
- Improve process variability, stability, and cost per dose.
Benefits
- Pre-approved equipment budget
