Canadian generic drug manufacturer with FDA-approved injectables across 50+ markets
Pharmascience manufactures and distributes over 2,000 generic pharmaceutical products—prescription, OTC, and injectable—across North America and 50+ countries. The company runs a SAP-anchored manufacturing operation (Excel, SQL, LIMS, HPLC, Gas Chromatography for lab work) paired with Salesforce for commercial operations and ServiceNow for service management. Current hiring is heavily skewed toward manufacturing (30 roles) and operations (14), with a smaller engineering footprint (12), signaling a business in operational scale-up mode rather than product innovation—matching their active projects in supply chain optimization, equipment qualification, and site expansion.
