Downstream Process Scientist API Proteins

The candidate for this position will work as a member of a small team to perform scale-up/scale-down development of therapeutic biologics with strong emphasis on API proteins within the Large-Scale Development & Operations downstream (DSP) group in Malvern, PA. The candidate’s primary responsibilities will include a component of pilot-scale DSP operations execution, DSP data acquisition and modeling, and optimizing the process steps to be representative of the target process scale to ensure right first time technical transfers.

This will include:

• Pilot-scale and occasional laboratory work with chromatographic purification and several types of filtration systems
• Record and analyze data, verify data integrity and accuracy, and report/summarize findings to the project development teams
• Design experiments to optimize DSP operations within the Large-Scale Development & Operations DSP group to ensure that they are representative of internal and external manufacturing sites
• Draft technical documents, SOPs, and work instructions
• Work in a team environment as well as contributing individually to meet project timelines and objectives
