Process Scientist Full-time

Process Scientist

Our Biotech facility in Dublin began construction in 2018 and has progressed at an impressive rate since then. The site plays a pivotal role in the manufacture of our Company's biologics-based medicines, including immuno-oncology, and it has expanded our Company's current internal network of biologics drug substance manufacturing plants since full manufacturing operations began in 2021.

A fantastic opportunity has arisen at our Biotech site for a Process Scientist, in the field of cell culture technology as part of Manufacturing Science and Technology Laboratory Team. This role will deliver a diverse range of technical expertise and support to the business.

Bring energy, knowledge, innovation and leadership to carry out the following:

• Lead, design, promote and execute experimental design, data analysis and interpretation to resolve complex cell culture deviations using small scale models.
• Process improvement and troubleshooting with end-to-end product focus.
• Execute and optimize upstream bioprocesses using bioreactors, including culture setup, monitoring key parameters
• Supporting the industry 4.0 initiative to navigate operations in a digital environment.
• Provide technical support investigations, new process introduction or change implementation in commercial manufacturing operations.
• Supporting global regulatory submissions as needed.

In order to excel in this role, you will more than likely have:

• A degree (or higher) in Biological Sciences/Chemistry /Chemical Engineering/Biological Engineering.
• At least 2 years' experience in the Biopharmaceutical industry (preferably practical experience of cell culture processing and other Upstream activities).
• Experience in small scale bioreactor models (between 250ml and ≤10L) of 2 years
• Experience in drug substance process development, process characterisation studies, mammalian cell technology, biochemistry, cell biology, fluid mechanics and process modelling.
• Experience in designing and executing experimental programs in the laboratory.
• Working knowledge of statistical methods for DOE design and data analysis (e.g., JMP or Design Expert software)
• Technical experience in the drug substance manufacture of biological molecules at the pilot- and/or commercial-scale. Experience with technology transfer, regulatory filing, and commercial drug substance manufacturing of biologics is a plus.
• Knowledge of and experience in applying Six Sigma and Lean methodologies
