Product Development Specialist

Renue By Science is a direct-to-consumer longevity supplement brand with more than 85 products, focused on NAD+ precursors and liposomal delivery. We are hiring a Product Development Coordinator to keep our development programs moving — functional bars, topical formulations, and new supplement launches — from formulation brief through production.
This is a fully remote, independent contractor engagement. All roles at Renue By Science are structured this way.
What you'll do
You will be the person who makes sure nothing stalls. Reporting to the Director of Product Development and Science, you will work daily with contract manufacturers, formulators, and analytical labs to keep programs on schedule and their documentation clean.
Maintain program timelines across concurrent development work and flag slippage before it becomes delay
Source and order individual ingredients across multi-ingredient formulations — our bar lines alone carry roughly 20 ingredients each
Act as day-to-day contact with manufacturers and labs for sample submissions, formula revisions, stability pulls, and certificates of analysis
Build specification sheets and RFQ packages to our internal templates
Keep formula revision histories complete and traceable
Route documents for approval and maintain our quality management system filing
Coordinate label and packaging proofs between design, label vendors, and manufacturers
Deliver a weekly written status covering open items, owners, and blockers
What we're looking for
2+ years coordinating projects in dietary supplements, food and beverage, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, or another regulated category
Experience managing contract manufacturers or suppliers remotely, and familiarity with cGMP documentation practices
Comfort reading specifications, certificates of analysis, and formula sheets — and recognizing when something is missing or inconsistent
Strong written follow-up: you close loops in writing, and someone can reconstruct a decision from your notes
Proficiency in Excel or Google Sheets
Helpful but not required
Direct experience with contract manufacturers or co-packers
A background in life sciences, food science, or chemistry
Exposure to stability testing, label compliance review, or supplier qualification
Experience with a document management or PLM system
Compensation and structure
$50,000 – $78,000 per year, depending on experience and weekly hours committed. As an independent contractor engagement, this does not include health coverage, retirement contributions, or paid time off. The rate is set with that in mind.
