Scientific Documentation & Communication: Develop and review protocols, reports, presentations, publications, manuscripts, and research summaries. Disseminate findings to internal and external audiences and contribute to publication or patent-related activities.
Process Development & Technology Transfer: Translate validated experimental protocols into quality-managed SOPs and support technology transfer of methods, processes, and products across business units.
Scientific Expertise & Mentorship: Provide scientific expertise for research and development initiatives, grants, and contract proposals. Mentor and train biologists and peers while helping maintain scientific integrity, quality standards, and awareness of relevant scientific advancements.

Qualifications:

Minimum Requirement: PhD and 5 years of experience, or equivalent experience (Master's degree and 8 years, or Bachelor's degree and 12 years).
Experience with new approach methodologies (NAMs), microphysiological systems (MPS), organoids, organ-on-chip technologies, or related advanced cellular model platforms.
Demonstrated ability to work on complex scientific problems requiring in-depth analysis, independent judgment, and application of broadly defined scientific practices and methodologies.
Experience designing, conducting, and directing experimental research and development activities.
Ability to analyze and interpret complex scientific data and troubleshoot technical and research-related challenges.
Strong verbal and written communication skills with experience preparing scientific documentation, reports, presentations, manuscripts, or publications.
Strong interpersonal, collaboration, and teamwork skills with the ability to mentor and support scientific staff.
Proven management skills and ability to work independently while maintaining scientific quality and integrity.
Preferred: Experience supporting infectious disease research programs and federal or government-funded research initiatives.
Preferred: Familiarity with workforce planning and budget preparation.

Benefits:

The expected salary range for this position is $120,000 to $140,000 annually.

In addition to base salary, this role may be eligible for additional incentive compensation including regular merit increases and the corporate bonus program.
