Data Systems Senior Scientist/Sr. Specialist – Regulatory Affairs Full-time

Data Systems Senior Scientist (P3), Regulated Bioanalytics, Integrated Logistics & Sample Management (ILSM)

The PDMB Regulated Bioanalytics Department is seeking a Data Systems Senior Scientist to join our Integrated Logistics and Sample Management group. This role will support work across groups within the Regulated Bioanalytics Department, including work at our Company's new state-of-the-art AdVAnce GxP research facility in West Point, PA. At this new facility, we will combine the power of innovative robotics, IT platforms, and science to accelerate vaccines and enable late-stage clinical trials through the generation of timely, high-quality regulated bioanalytical data. As the AdVAnce facility will not be fully constructed and ready for occupancy until 2026, initial roles will complete training and perform work primarily at our Company's Springhouse Innovation Park facility in Lower Gwynedd Township, PA.

The primary role of the successful candidate will be to provide data management and automated solutions to support the development and implementation of tools to increase the efficiency of processes, data review, and data visualization that can be applied to increase the throughput of our Vaccines pipeline. The individual should have demonstrated experience in applying software solutions to address scientific challenges and enhance productivity.
