Formulation Scientist
You will turn our PDRN into dosage forms that stay stable on the shelf and behave the same way from batch to batch. The work starts at preformulation and runs to the formulation we take into preclinical studies.
We welcome recent graduates looking for a job or an internship, and we give priority to those who graduated top of their degree programme or university.
We are running this role in our laboratory in Vietnam. The work is at the bench, on site, and is not remote. If you apply from another country, the form below asks about your right to work in Vietnam.
What you will do
- Run preformulation studies on PDRN: solubility, pH, viscosity and compatibility with excipients.
- Design and make prototype formulations for the routes our programmes need.
- Plan and run stability studies under ICH conditions, and report the results.
- Work with the analytical team so that every formulation is measured by a documented method.
- Write batch records and development reports that a regulator can follow.
What you bring
- A degree in pharmacy, pharmaceutical sciences, chemistry or chemical engineering.
- Hands-on experience developing liquid or semi-solid formulations, from study or from work.
- Knowledge of the ICH stability guidelines.
- Careful records, and the habit of measuring a result again before trusting it.
Nice to have
- Experience formulating nucleic acids, peptides or other biologics.
- Experience with sterile products, or with transferring a process to a manufacturer.
How you can apply
You can apply with the form on this page, or write to our Chief Executive Officer, Marshon Nguyen, on LinkedIn.

About Synthena Pharmaceuticals
Synthena Pharmaceuticals is a pharmaceutical company founded in Hong Kong in July 2026. We work on one substance, PDRN, and we make it from plant cells and from microbes, never from animal tissue. Our target fragments are 20–80 base pairs, and every result keeps its history: the date, the sample, the instrument and the operator.
