Experienced Manager in R&D with a focus on API development.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned professional with over 18 years of experience in Process Research & Development, specializing in the R&D of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) and their intermediates. My expertise spans organic chemical synthesis, biocatalysis, and downstream processing, where I have successfully led projects for both regulatory and non-regulatory markets across the US, Europe, Japan, India, and the rest of the world.
Currently, I manage a dedicated team of over 10 individuals in the Process R&D Lab, where I oversee daily operations, monitor team performance, and ensure we meet our organizational targets. My commitment to following GDP, GLP, and GMP criteria ensures that our processes are not only effective but also commercially viable. I take pride in my ability to develop cost-effective processes and facilitate technology transfer from lab to pilot and plant scales.
