Success in this role requires adaptability, attention to detail, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.

MINIMUM QUALIFICATIONS

• Bachelor’s degree in scientific discipline is preferred.
• Minimum of two years of hands-on experience in biopharmaceutical or pharmaceutical manufacturing; pilot plant or clinical manufacturing experience preferred.
• Working knowledge of current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP) and/or Good Laboratory Practices (cGLP).
• Experience supporting aseptic or bulk manufacturing processes for biologics strongly preferred.
• Strong communication skills, with the ability to clearly document activities and deviations in batch records and logbooks.
• Comfortable performing basic calculations required for solution prep, buffer/media calculations, and process documentation.
• Familiarity with standard bioprocess lab equipment (e.g. centrifuges, pumps, filtration systems, pipettes).
• Proven ability to work effectively both independently and as part of a cross-functional team.
