This enables researchers, patients, and communities to fund and govern biotech projects in new, open ways.\nBIO.xyz is the coordination and economic layer of DeSci, powering BioDAOs through funding, governance, and ecosystem alignment.\nTogether, we are creating a new model for scientific discovery - one where breakthroughs are owned and advanced by the communities that believe in them.\nLocation: Germany (lab site TBC - right candidate informs final location)\nType: Senior IC role - no team to manage on day one; you hire your team in year two once the proof exists\nThe Role\nCapsules. Tablets. Sterile compounding. We're building precisely-dosed formulations of cognitive, performance, and longevity compounds - modafinil, bromantane, GLP-1 analogs, BPC-157, thymosin α-1, and a growing pipeline of small-molecule and peptide actives.\nYou will set our formulation standards, run the bench work, and be the person who can defend every excipient choice, every dissolution curve, and every sterility result. From active properties to qualified drug product - oral, injectable, topical - with documentation that holds up.\nWhat You'll Do\nDesign oral solid-dose formulations (capsules and tablets) from active properties up - excipient selection, diluents, binders, disintegrants, flow agents, and lubricants matched to each compound's solubility, stability, and dosing profile\n\nDesign sterile injectable formulations for our peptide pipeline - lyophile design, bulking agents, cryoprotectants, vial fill/finish at small scale, reconstitution protocols, and container-closure compatibility. Hands-on with EU GMP Annex 1 (sterile manufacturing) and applicable AMG/AMWHV requirements\n\nOwn encapsulation, blending, and aseptic processing end to end: powder characterization, blend uniformity, content uniformity, capsule fill weight control, scale-up from bench to production batches, and sterility assurance for the injectable side\n\nSolve hard actives. Bromantane and modafinil bring oral-side challenges - low aqueous solubility, poor flow, dose accuracy at small fill weights. Peptides like BPC-157, GLP-1 analogs, and GHK-Cu bring injectable-side challenges - stability across the lyophile/reconstitution cycle, copper-complex integrity, peptide aggregation. You develop the techniques that make all of them reproducible\n\nBuild and run the analytical backbone: dissolution testing, assay/potency, content and weight uniformity, sterility (Ph. Eur. 2.6.1), endotoxin (Ph. Eur. 2.6.14), and stability programs (ICH Q1A - accelerated and long-term) to establish shelf life\n\nWrite documentation that holds up: master formulation records, batch records, specifications, and SOPs. Define what \"in spec\" means and enforce it. Clean data trails or it didn't happen\n\nPartner with sourcing and QC on raw-material specs, incoming API characterization (identity, purity by HPLC, particle size), and supplier qualification. Build a qualified supplier network. Continuously improve - reduce variability, improve stability, lower cost-per-dose without compromising quality\n\nWho You Are\nDefends decisions with data. You'd rather run the test than guess. When asked why you chose X over Y, you have a data-grounded answer\n\nHigh bar on accuracy and sterility. It's people's health. Dose accuracy, reproducibility, and sterility are non-negotiable - especially on injectables\n\nExpert in the room alone. You work well as the sole expert on day one. No team around you for the first year, and that doesn't slow you down\n\nEngineers around complexity. You see the regulatory complexity of the compound classes we work with clearly, and you engineer around it rather than pretending it isn't there\n\nRequired\nApprobation als Apotheker/in (German pharmacist license), or an EU-recognized pharmacy qualification with a clear path to German licensure. Alternatively: a degree in pharmaceutics, pharmaceutical sciences, or industrial pharmacy (MSc/PhD) with equivalent hands-on formulation depth\n\n5+ years of hands-on formulation experience in pharma, nutraceutical, compounding, or contract manufacturing - covering oral solid dose and at least one of: sterile injectables, topicals\n\nDeep working knowledge of excipient functionality and compatibility, and of encapsulation/tableting unit operations\n\nPractical command of dissolution, content uniformity, and stability study design and interpretation\n\nExperience formulating poorly-soluble or low-dose actives\n\nWorking command of EU GMP (EudraLex Vol. 4), Annex 1 (sterile manufacturing), and the Apothekenbetriebsordnung (ApBetrO) or equivalent manufacturing-pharmacy framework\n\nRigor with documentation: batch records, specs, SOPs, and a clean data trail\n\nStrongly Preferred\nSterile injectable / lyophilization experience - peptide formulations specifically\n\nBackground in a German Herstellungsapotheke, hospital pharmacy compounding unit, or EU-licensed contract manufacturer\n\nExperience formulating GLP-1 analogs (semaglutide, tirzepatide) or other peptide manufacturing under a quality-grade framework\n\nFamiliarity with cognitive/performance compounds, or with the broader peptide / longevity therapeutic landscape\n\nHands-on with HPLC, dissolution apparatus, particle sizing, Karl Fischer titration\n\nComfort owning scale-up from R&D batches to production\n\nWorking proficiency in German (regulatory and documentation context) and English (team working language)\n\nWhat We Offer\nA senior IC seat building the formulation function from scratch at a company at the intersection of biotech, blockchain, and AI\n\nPre-approved capex - you spec the equipment: lyophilizer, capsule filler, balance suite, HPLC, dissolution apparatus, Class II BSC\n\nThe team you need, once you've proven the foundation\n\nWe are an equal opportunity employer. We are committed to equality and weaving a community that values diverse perspectives and experiences and are actively seeking a diverse pool of applicants.
