Scientist
Overview:
Solid State NMR Spectroscopist – Material and Analytical Sciences Boehringer Ingelheim is currently seeking a talented structural chemist skilled in Solid State NMR spectroscopy to work in our Material and Analytical Sciences (MAS) department located at our Ridgefield, CT facility. As a temporary contract employee, you will expand your scientific skills, gain experience using state of the art equipment and gain insight on the drug development process.
The individual in this position will actively contribute to the discovery, development and delivery of our products to our patients and customers. BI's global presence provides an opportunity to collaborate internationally, offering visibility and opportunity to directly contribute to the companies' success. We foster a healthy working environment, meaningful work, diversity and inclusion, mobility, networking and work-life balance.
Duties & Responsibilities:
Apply skill in solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy to acquire and interpret (1D and 2D 1H, 19F, 13C, 15N, etc.) data for molecular structure elucidation.
Apply ssNMR to characterize pharmaceutical materials such as particles, powders, and suspensions and to guide robust drug substance and drug product development.
Use NMR expertise to evaluate and characterize a broad range of materials, including crystalline and non-crystalline small molecule APIs, biologics, excipients, drug product intermediates, and drug products.
Apply quantitative ssNMR methods to measure components of APIs and drug products.
Use molecular modeling and predictive tools with technologies such as solution/solid state NMR and X-ray crystallography to enable 3D structural evaluation at the atomic and molecular level.
Ensure back-up and retrieval of all ssNMR data.
Plan and perform experiments with minimal supervision to provide investigative support of structural predictions.
Remain current with relevant scientific literature and apply knowledge to the design, modification and implementation of new experiments.
Write protocols, methods and technical reports; provide scientific interpretation of results with minimal guidance.
Present at internal scientific meetings.
