What You’ll Do
- Lead a diverse group of scientists responsible for development and tech transfer of early and late-stage (characterization and validation) upstream perfusion/intensified fed-batch processes for biotherapeutics manufacturing as well as technology development projects.
- Serve as a Project Team Lead to execute client projects that involve multiple functional areas and the full range of regulatory stages.
- Serve as an internal technical resource for cGMP manufacturing and Process Design as well as for external clients and partners for cell culture and bioreactor processes (small scale models, process transfer, and scale up) and author CMC regulatory sections.
- Collaborate across the organization to accelerate clinical development timelines while reducing development costs.
- Clearly and effectively communicate scientific information, experimental plans, and data to internal project teams, senior management, external clients, vendors, and technology development collaborators as well as the external scientific community such as regulatory agencies, review boards, and conferences.
- Independently design, execute, and analyze statistically designed experiments (DOE).
- Author SOPs, reports, and slides which summarize, organize, and interpret experiment results with review by appropriate team members.
- Train, mentor, and supervise staff and interns.
- Potential for weekend work (5-day work week/ 2 days off) and being on-call for critical bioreactor runs.
- Other tasks as assigned.
- BS/MS in Engineering, Biochemistry, Biology, or related field with 12 years of experience or Ph.D. in Engineering, Biochemistry, Biology, or related field with 8 years of experience.
