Product Development Scientist Jobs

The Drug Product Design and Development (DPDD) group within AbbVie’s Synthetic Molecule CMC organization designs and develops drug products for candidate synthetic molecules across stages of clinical evaluation, from proof of concept through pivotal studies and life-cycle innovation. The group collaborates across functions to establish phase-appropriate development strategies, conduct studies that produce bioavailable, stable, and manufacturable drug products, and deliver clinical supplies. It also optimizes formulation and manufacturing processes to develop commercializable products for Phase 3 clinical studies and support consistent production of high-quality drug products. The Senior Scientist I will join the DPDD team in North Chicago, Illinois, and work with cross-functional teams to develop drug delivery and formulation strategies. The role leads formulation and process design, characterization, and understanding, and advances biopharmaceutical characterization of clinical formulations. As a project lead, the scientist advises teams, solves complex problems, drives innovation, fosters productive collaborations, and communicates effectively with scientific teams and senior CMC management.
