The role
You will run core unit operations in drug substance manufacturing — the practical execution that turns a validated process into product, shift after shift.
What you will do
- Operate bioreactors, purification skids or supporting unit operations per batch record
- Perform aseptic and clean operations to a consistently high standard
- Troubleshoot in-process issues with engineering and MSAT support
- Author and support deviation investigations for your area
- Train and check newer technicians on operations you are qualified on
What success looks like at 12 months
You are qualified across your suite's operations, you are the person the shift asks when something is unusual, and you have trained at least two colleagues.
What we require
- Experience in GMP manufacturing, or strong technical operations experience from another industry
- Understanding of aseptic technique or willingness to qualify on it
- Comfort on a 12-hour rotating shift including nights
- Ability to gown, stand for extended periods and lift up to 50 lb
What we would like, but will teach you
- Single-use bioreactor or chromatography experience
- Associate or bachelor's degree in a science
- Military nuclear, aviation or maintenance background
If you meet the required list, apply. We cap the preferred list at four items on purpose, and we would rather read an application from someone who is 70% there and hungry.
Navy nuclear, aviation maintenance and Army 91-series backgrounds transfer directly into this role.
Onsite at Devens, MA on a 12-hour rotating shift, typically 3-on/4-off alternating with 4-on/3-off, days and nights. Shift differentials of 12–20% apply on top of base.
