- Operate and monitor preparative/process-scale chromatography systems.
- Optimize and monitor mobile phase, solvent composition, flow rate, loading, gradient, pressure, and other process parameters.
- Ensure consistent product purity, recovery, and yield.
- Monitor chromatographic profiles and identify abnormalities during processing.

Column Operations

- Perform/support column packing, unpacking, cleaning, regeneration, and storage.
- Monitor column performance, pressure, resolution, efficiency, and lifetime.
- Troubleshoot column-related problems such as channeling, high back pressure, poor resolution, and loss of efficiency.

Production & Batch Execution

- Execute manufacturing activities according to approved BMR/BPR, SOPs, and GMP requirements.
- Monitor batch progress, yield, recovery, cycle time, and solvent consumption.
- Complete manufacturing documentation accurately and on time.
- Coordinate with QA, QC, Engineering, Warehouse, and Planning.

Process Troubleshooting

- Investigate issues related to:
- Low recovery
- Poor resolution
- Purity failures
- High pressure
