POSITION SUMMARY The Non-Sterile Compounding Pharmacist protects patient safety and business continuity by owning accurate prescription review, compliant compounding oversight, inventory control, dispensing readiness, and operational risk management. Operating within Empower's hyper-growth, highly regulated 503A/503B environment, this role translates standards into disciplined daily execution across workflows, equipment, documentation, and quality decisions. The pharmacist uses AI as a force multiplier to accelerate exception detection, scale trend analysis, improve documentation quality, and strengthen evidence-based decision-making while preserving professional judgment and regulatory accountability. Success requires strategic thinking that anticipates downstream impact, execution rigor that closes gaps without compromise, and learning agility that rapidly converts new regulations, technologies, and operating insights into safer, faster, and more reliable performance. This individual collaborates across Pharmacy, Quality, Operations, and Technology to improve throughput, compliance, and reliability.

Requirements

  • Advanced knowledge of non-sterile compounding, prescription assessment, dosage calculations, ingredient compatibility, beyond-use dating, storage controls, process controls, and pharmacist release requirements.
  • Ability to interpret regulations, convert requirements into practical controls, maintain inspection-ready documentation, and apply sound risk-based judgment in ambiguous operating situations.
  • Proficiency with pharmacy systems, inventory tools, data dashboards, and AI-enabled analytics used to improve exception detection, forecasting, documentation quality, and operational decision-making.
  • Strong communication, prioritization, problem-solving, and cross-functional collaboration skills, with the learning agility to perform accurately in a high-volume, rapidly changing environment.
  • Minimum of five (5) years of direct experience in compounding and management required.
  • Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy (BSPharm) or Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) required.
  • Demonstrated strong organizational, time management, and communication skills with the ability to adapt to a fast-paced, changing environment, prioritize tasks, and maintain confidentiality while working both independently and collaboratively.
  • Strong problem-solving and analytical skills with the ability to troubleshoot issues effectively, manage tasks within established procedures, and meet varied patient and company needs with flexibility and attention to detail.

Responsibilities

  • Evaluate prescriptions for clinical appropriateness, dosage accuracy, ingredient compatibility, contraindications, and patient-specific risk before release. Use AI-enabled decision support to surface anomalies, compare historical patterns, and prioritize exceptions while independently validating every recommendation. Resolve discrepancies with prescribers and internal partners, document interventions clearly, and ensure each compounded preparation meets applicable standards, approved formulations, and Empower quality expectations without sacrificing speed, judgment, accountability, or patient-centered service during sustained high-volume operations.
  • Direct the daily execution of non-sterile compounding activities by confirming formulas, calculations, equipment readiness, documentation, storage requirements, and technician adherence to approved procedures. Apply AI-supported workflow monitoring to identify bottlenecks, deviations, and emerging quality signals earlier. Intervene decisively when conditions threaten safety or compliance, coordinate corrective action, and maintain reliable production flow across changing demand while preserving formulation integrity, traceability, accuracy, and timely patient delivery.
  • Perform final verification of compounded products, labels, quantities, packaging, beyond-use dating, and required records before dispensing or distribution. Leverage AI-assisted comparison tools to improve review speed, detect inconsistencies, and strengthen documentation completeness while retaining full pharmacist accountability for release decisions. Quarantine questionable materials, investigate variances, escalate significant risks, and prevent outdated, misidentified, improperly stored, or otherwise unsuitable products from reaching patients, providers, or downstream operational channels.
  • Translate federal, state, board, and industry requirements into consistent daily practices across non-sterile laboratories, dispensing, inventory, delivery, and recordkeeping. Use AI to organize regulatory updates, map obligations to procedures, and accelerate gap assessments while verifying outputs against authoritative sources. Maintain licensing readiness, support inspections, close findings promptly, and partner with Quality to ensure policies, training, and operating controls remain current, defensible, practical, and embedded in routine execution.
  • Own proactive identification and control of operational, clinical, environmental, and compliance risks related to compounding, hazardous materials, waste disposal, storage, equipment, and workflow execution. Apply AI-enabled trend analysis to detect recurring deviations and prioritize risk-reduction actions. Conduct assessments, enforce controls, document decisions, and escalate material concerns quickly. Partner cross-functionally to implement sustainable corrective and preventive actions that protect patients, employees, product integrity, public health, and business continuity during sustained growth.
  • Maintain complete, accurate, contemporaneous, and inspection-ready records for prescriptions, formulations, compounding steps, verification, inventory, equipment, deviations, and corrective actions. Use AI-assisted drafting and data validation to improve consistency, retrieval speed, and error detection without substituting automation for professional review. Correct documentation gaps at the source, reinforce data integrity expectations with colleagues, and ensure records support traceability, regulatory defense, operational learning, and confident decision-making throughout the product and patient service lifecycle.
  • Manage production scheduling, bulk compounding coordination, end-of-day order triage, inventory availability, and equipment utilization to balance safety, service, and throughput. Use AI-driven forecasting and workload insights to anticipate demand, prioritize constrained resources, and reduce avoidable delays. Standardize effective methods, eliminate recurring waste, and test improvements through measurable outcomes. Coordinate with Operations and Pharmacy teams to sustain reliable execution as volumes, formulations, regulations, and patient expectations evolve across Empower's expanding network.
  • Control ingredient and finished-product inventory through accurate receiving, storage, rotation, reconciliation, expiration monitoring, and replenishment decisions. Apply AI-supported demand forecasting and anomaly detection to reduce shortages, excess stock, write-offs, and dispensing risk. Investigate discrepancies, maintain proper environmental conditions, and ensure outdated or compromised drugs are not available for use. Collaborate with Procurement, Operations, and Quality partners to improve availability, traceability, cost discipline, and continuity of patient care at scale.
  • Collaborate with pharmacists, technicians, Quality, Operations, Technology, Procurement, and prescribers to resolve issues, improve processes, and deliver dependable patient service. Translate clinical and regulatory requirements into clear operating actions, share timely risk information, and support training through practical expertise. Use AI-generated insights to accelerate root-cause discussions and decision preparation while challenging unsupported conclusions. Model accountability, adaptability, service, and continuous learning in a fast-changing environment where teamwork directly influences quality and growth.
