Associate Scientist/Scientist, Health Care Analytical - Lab Computing and Measurement Science

Job description

Are you passionate about solving tough challenges? In this role you will use your Analytical skills to find creative solutions for consumer's everyday problems! If this sounds like fun, we would love to hire someone with your skills and abilities to join our R&D organization.

Analytical delivers critical data and knowledge through instrumentation that depends on computerized systems for instrument control as well as acquisition, processing, transmission, and archival of data. Leveraging our scale requires an expert dedicated to maximizing the reliability and function of this digital infrastructure in a highly regulated environment. As such, we are seeking a highly motivated Associate Scientist/Scientist to join the Health Care Analytical organization to lead, grow, deploy and maintain the lab computing and digital infrastructure that underlies the measurement capabilities of both Oral and Personal Health Care Analytical at Mason Business Center in Mason, Ohio. In this position you will also take on measurement science responsibilities driving further synergies between Analytical capabilities and Digital innovation. Without an effective ‘lab computing’ backbone, our laboratories will be inefficient, and the integrity of our data could be at risk.

The Health Care Analytical digital infrastructure owner will co-create, lead and implement programs assuring sufficiency of lab computing systems—focusing on programs that are data-intensive and span both the Oral and Personal Health Care Analytical groups. Specific roles include, but are not limited to, enabling the deployment of next generation innovative digital solutions for Health Care Analytical (e.g. Nexus/LabVantage, Veeva, etc.), leading upgrades of lab computers (e.g., new Windows versions), partnering with capability leaders to further enable lab connectivity/ automation, driving the exit of legacy systems, and improving the infrastructure for data capture/ integrity as well as computer system validation. In this position, it is expected that you will identify additional IT-related needs and opportunities for Analytical by understanding where we are vulnerable or by seeing where new tools could improve effectiveness/efficiency as well as quality/compliance. Responsibilities will grow to include building in-depth knowledge of Oral Care products and formulations, proficiency in relevant methods/techniques, method development/validation, proactively partnering with project teams and Analytical colleagues to meet project objectives/timings and designing/executing experiments. Substantial opportunities also exist to further develop your network and analytical measurement expertise across other instruments/techniques.
