Biotechnologist II-Day Shift

Location: Portsmouth, NH, USA.

Schedule: Monday – Friday, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM

(Standard Business Hours).

Note:

Flexibility to adjust schedules to support shifting campaign timelines or floor demands may be required.

We are seeking a proactive and highly organized technical professional to join our team in Portsmouth, NH, as a Biotechnologist II. This specialized role is designed for a candidate with a traditional cGMP biomanufacturing background who wants to focus on the operational staging, material lifecycle management, and equipment readiness that makes production possible. Operating under general supervision, you will ensure that the production suites have a flawless, continuous supply of materials—including single-use bioreactors, specialized raw materials, and processing consumables.

While your primary mandate is logistical readiness and material flow, you will maintain the technical baseline necessary to jump onto the manufacturing floor and support production operations directly when campaigns reach full-scale execution.

• An agile career and dynamic working culture

• An inclusive and ethical workplace

• Compensation programs that recognize high performance

• Medical, dental and vision insurance, as well as PTO and more

• Our full list of global benefits can be found here:

• Material & Equipment Staging: Lead the technical coordination, staging, and movement of all process-critical materials, consumables, and equipment (including single-use bioreactor assemblies and hardware) to prevent floor delays.

• Re-usable Parts Management :
  Facilitate management of reusable parts include use of the parts washer and autoclave where applicable.

• Weigh & Dispense :
  Support production of media and buffers by weighing components to be used in media/buffer formulation.

• Suite Readiness & On-Time Delivery: Support the development and execution of robust suite readiness checklists, ensuring manufacturing teams are fully set up for flawless campaign execution.

• Cross-Functional Procurement Tracking: Partner with internal supply chain and materials specialists to track purchase requisitions, manage BOM inventories, and monitor deliveries against strict project metrics.

• Technical Transfer Operational Support: Provide crucial operational and material-flow support during tech transfer milestones, including facility water runs, particle runs, and engineering runs.

• Documentation Compliance: Author, review, and execute GMP documentation—including Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), Work Instructions (WIs), and material tracking sheets—ensuring total GDP compliance.

• Direct Manufacturing Assistance: Maintain processing proficiency across core unit operations (e.g., cell growth, harvest, or fill/finish) to seamlessly jump in and directly assist manufacturing teams on the floor as production demand dictates.

• Quality & EHS Alignment: Manage daily tasks in strict compliance with site safety objectives and cGMP guidelines, actively participating in room clearance, facility sanitization, and the resolution of material-related deviations.

• Experience: 1–3 years of experience within a cGMP biological manufacturing or regulated clinical laboratory environment is required. Prior hands-on experience inside a cleanroom setting is highly preferred.

• Technical Background: Background identical to a standard manufacturing associate, including an understanding of aseptic techniques, hygienic processing concepts, and basic microbiology principles.

• Skills: Excellent proactive communication, strong computer literacy, and superior organizational skills required to coordinate complex material requirements across multiple internal departments.
