Job Description Summary

We are looking for an AI-enabled Scientific Computing Expert to strengthen Drug Product development capabilities within a global CMC organization. In this role, you will focus on how AI, data science, and modeling can improve decision-making in CMC, from early formulation development to commercial manufacturing.
You will work in a highly interdisciplinary workplace, collaborating with formulation scientists, process engineers, data scientists, and manufacturing experts to advance model-informed decision-making and embed AI-native workflows into day-to-day development activities.
Rather than applying models in isolation, you will design AI-native workflows where mechanistic understanding, data-driven models, and human expertise work together.

Job Description

Major Accountabilities:
- You will combine process and product understanding with AI and advanced analytics to deliver decision support across the drug product lifecycle.
- The focus is on practical impact through AI-supported product development—modeling, experimentation, and knowledge management.





· Apply mechanistic, empirical, statistical, and hybrid (physics + machine learning) modeling approaches to support drug product formulation and process development from early lab phase through scale-up and commercialization.

· Translate formulation and process questions into model- and data-ready problem statements; define success criteria, assumptions, and uncertainty considerations with subject-matter experts.

· Use AI and advanced analytics to guide experimentation (e.g., model-based Design of Experiments, Bayesian Optimization), accelerate learning cycles, and continuously refine models as new data becomes available.

· Develop predictive models, digital twins, and decision-support tools for key drug product unit operations (e.g., oral solid dose manufacturing).

· Build end-to-end data science solutions (data preparation, exploratory analysis, modeling, validation, deployment, and
