The Biotherapeutics Development Supply (BTDS) organization is responsible for the development, clinical supply, marketed product support, and life cycle management of Biotherapeutics. Within BTDS, the Analytical Development (AD) group supports method development and validation, as well as product development, release, and stability analytics via automated workflows.

The Laboratory Automation Robotics team is recruiting for a Laboratory Automation Senior Scientist to collaborate in migrating analytical assays from manual processes to end-to-end fully automated workflows. In this role you will collaborate with Method Development, Assay Automation, Integrations, Orchestration, Information Technology, Data Science, and end-users to increase sample testing volume while reducing time-to-result, hands-on time, repetitive strain, and assay variability. The primary scientific areas of focus will be cell and gene therapies and therapeutic antibodies, automating analytical workflows such as antigen binding, cell-based bioassays, chromatography, flow cytometry, mass spectrometry, and molecular biology.

Key Responsibilities:

Depending on your skills and interest:

Collaborate within a cross-functional team to design, develop, and deploy end-to-end laboratory automationCreate, optimize, maintain, and continuously improve high-throughput workflows using liquid-handling robots and integrated automation workcellsExpand the scope of existing automation by introducing new functionalitiesEvaluate novel devices/instruments/technologies for the enhancement of laboratory processesTroubleshoot laboratory automation, liaising with internal subject matter experts and external vendors to perform root cause analysis based on thorough scientific and technical investigationsShare knowledge and document best practices within the automation team, and support and train end users to independently execute automated workflowsPartner with Information Technology and Data Science teams to automate data flows, ensuring data integrity through capture in appropriate electronic systems and high-through processing via review by exception
