THE POSITION

A healthier future. It’s what drives us to innovate. To continuously advance science and ensure everyone has access to the healthcare they need today and for generations to come. Creating a world where we all have more time with the people we love. That’s what makes us Genentech.
The Drug Metabolism & Pharmacokinetics (DMPK) department is dedicated to enabling the discovery, development and commercialization of safe and effective medicines by elucidating the mechanisms of absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion of synthetic molecule drug candidates. Bioanalysis, as one of the major functional groups in DMPK, is responsible for quantitatively measuring drug molecules in pre-clinical and clinical studies throughout drug discovery and development, and works in close partnership with various departments outside of DMPK.

• Identifies, evaluates, implements and optimizes automated systems and process technologies to increase data generating/reporting quality and efficiency
• Strong domain knowledge of bioanalytical science, independently perform bioanalytical laboratory assay development and transfer on automated systems (Hamilton liquid handling systems)
• Proactively works with users in the maintenance and trouble-shooting of various robotic equipment and systems
• Provides guidance to new users on design and transfer of assays to automated systems
• Participates in cross-functional teams as a bioanalytical representative to evaluate/implement new automated or data management systems
• Work closely with vendors while maintaining a strong focus on efficiency improvements
• May participate in bioanalytical support for various drug discovery project
