• Develop and deploy predictive models to optimize bioprocess workflows (fermentation and downstream processing)

• Translate process insights into actionable improvements for yield enhancement and cost reduction

• Analyze complex datasets from bioprocess operations (sensor data, batch records, experimental results)

• Collaborate cross-functionally to integrate data science solutions into plant operations with scalability and compliance

• Communicate findings via visualizations, reports, and presentations to technical and non-technical stakeholders

• Improve data pipelines and modeling frameworks for bioprocess control

Requirements

• M.S. + 6 years of experience or Ph.D. + 3 years of experience in Data Science, Computer Science, Chemical Engineering, Bioprocess Engineering, Statistics, or a related quantitative field

• Strong foundation in machine learning, statistical modeling, and process control

• Proficiency in Python, R, or another programming language

• Excellent communication and collaboration skills for multidisciplinary teams

Benefits

• Development opportunities to build skills

• Health benefits for you and your family starting on day one

• Four weeks of paid time off and two weeks of well-being pay per year, plus paid holidays

• Excellent parental leave (minimum 16 weeks for both mother and father)
