Formulation Scientist Excipient Annotation (Contract)

DESCRIPTION: We have a curated dataset of formulations covering API, excipient list, dosage form, and route of administration. We are looking for a formulation scientist to annotate the excipients in these formulations with their functional roles, so the data can be used to train our models. This is a short-term, paid contract engagement covering 30 - 50 formulations. RESPONSIBILITIES: 1. Accurately assign a functional role to each excipient in a formulation, drawn from the full range of established functional categories (Eg: binder, diluent, disintegrant, glidant, plasticiser, buffering agent, cryoprotectant, and others) 2. Resolve cases where an excipient can serve more than one role, selecting the role most relevant to that dosage form and route, with a one-line rationale 3. Follow a shared annotation format and join follow-up meetings with our team to settle unclear cases. ENGAGEMENT DETAILS: Contract basis, remoteScope: 30 - 50 formulationsCompensation: Flat fee (based on experience)Timeline: at the earliest There is scope for continued engagement on future work across formulations and generics, depending on fit.
