Sponsorship verdict
Sponsorship possible
One solid signal, not two — worth applying, and worth asking about sponsorship early.
- Employer is on a government sponsor recordThe US Department of Labor certified 47 H-1B/E-3 labor condition applications for this employer between Oct 2025 and Jun 2026 (latest Jun 2026) — the step every H-1B hire needs first. USCIS also records 29 H-1B approvals in FY2023. Source: LCA disclosure data (US Department of Labor (OFLC)).
- The posting doesn’t mention sponsorshipSilence isn’t a refusal — ask the recruiter before investing much time.
- No salary bar for this routeH-1B has no fixed salary bar: the employer must pay at least the prevailing wage for the role and area. Cap-subject employers enter a lottery weighted by wage level.

US H-1B: cap-subject employers enter a lottery weighted by wage level — Level I gets 1 entry, Level IV gets 4 (DHS projected selection odds ≈15% at Level I to ≈61% at Level IV). Universities and non-profit research employers are cap-exempt. The $100,000 fee for new petitions from abroad is currently blocked by a court order (appeal pending).

About the role
Job Title: 2027 Spring Co-op CMC Synthetics Platform Process and Pharmaceutical Engineering Scientist • Grade: Co-op • Location: Cambridge, MA • Duration: 6 months About the Job Looking to launch your career at the cutting edge of healthcare? Join Sanofi for a chance to develop with mentoring and guidance from inspirational leaders while helping to make an impact on the lives of countless people worldwide. As Spring Co-op in our CMC Synthetics Platform Process and Pharmaceutical team . As a co-op in Pharmaceutical Engineering team of the CMC Synthetics Platform, you will contribute to advancing our understanding of how material properties at the particle and crystal scale influence downstream manufacturability and drug product performance. This position offers a unique opportunity to work across material science, process engineering, and computational modeling in support of next-generation pharmaceutical development. This role will focus on bridging fundamental particles and crystal properties with process-scale behavior in tablet manufacturing. The successful candidate will work on projects spanning single crystal property prediction, powder compaction simulation, and experimental analysis of tablet mechanical failure using digital image correlation (DIC). Through this work, you will help build mechanistic understanding and predictive tools that improve formulation robustness and manufacturability. We believe that integrating material science, simulation, and material sparing experimental techniques is critical to the future of pharmaceutical process development. In this role, you will have the opportunity to work at that interface—applying engineering fundamentals and material science tools to solve real development challenges, generate new scientific insight, and help advance more efficient and predictive approaches to oral solid dosage manufacturing. Ready to grow your skills while helping shape the future of healthcare? At Sanofi, you’ll be empowered to learn, ask questions, and bring your ideas to life – all while supported by inspiring mentors and collaborative teams. About Sanofi We’re an R&D-driven, AI-powered biopharma company committed to improving people’s lives and delivering compelling growth. Our deep understanding of the immune system – and innovative pipeline – enables us to invent medicines and vaccines that treat and protect millions of people around the world. Together, we chase the miracles of science to improve people’s lives. Main Responsibilities: • Predict and analysis of single crystal material properties relevant to pharmaceutical development, including mechanical behavior, elastic properties, and anisotropy. Assist in evaluating how crystal structure and morphology influence downstream processing and manufacturability • Design and execute experimental studies to characterize tablet mechanical performance, including diametral compression and dynamic breakage testing. Use digital image correlation (DIC) and related imaging tools to quantify strain localization, crack initiation, and failure mechanisms. • Integrate experimental and modeling results to improve mechanistic understanding of material-process-performance relationships. Collaborate with scientists and engineers to translate findings into predictive frameworks that support formulation and process design. About You Basic Qualifications: • Currently pursuing a Master's or PhD degree in Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Materials Science, Pharmaceutical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or related technical field. • Must be permanently authorized to work in the U.S. and not require sponsorship of an employment visa (e.g., H-1B or green card) at the time of application or in the future.
