Biologics Process Research & Development, Associate Scientist

Overview

Biologics Process Research & Development (BPR&D) within our Company's Research Laboratories is on a mission to rapidly deliver biotherapeutics to patients by efficiently developing innovative, robust manufacturing processes and technologies. We work closely with colleagues in Discovery, Pre-clinical, Early Development, Analytical, Formulation, and Commercial Manufacturing while providing an inclusive environment for all. We innovate and build next generation biomanufacturing technologies, including investments in continuous manufacturing, green and sustainable processes, and proprietary technology platforms.

We actively publish and engage with the scientific community to influence the field.

• Contribute to the development of innovative and disruptive technologies for next-generation biologic manufacturing processes
• Develop and characterize robust clinical processes capable of delivering multi-kilogram quantities of drug substance
• Independently design and conduct experiments for individual unit operations using relevant operational parameters and analytical inputs
• Integrate unit operations both physically and with relevant process control and monitoring platforms for concurrent operations
• Collaborate across the department, process analytics, and other functional teams in both Research & Development and manufacturing to advance the biologics pipeline
• Conduct laboratory-scale and/or pilot-scale studies to support scale-up and tech transfer of processes
• Contribute to a safe and compliant laboratory work environment
