- Familiarity with solubility, dissolution, and stability testing of drug candidates.
- Understanding of solid-state form screening (salt, cocrystal, polymorph).
- Experience with data analysis and documentation in regulated environments.
- Proficiency with scientific software and instrumentation for material characterization.
- Strong problem-solving skills and scientific curiosity.
- Excellent organizational and documentation practices.
- Ability to work independently as well as in a multidisciplinary team environment.
