Senior Process Development Engineer – AI-Driven Bioprocess Innovation

Reinvent biopharmaceutical manufacturing by merging mechanistic modeling with AI. We are seeking a Senior Process Development Engineer to drive the next generation of AI-powered digital twins for leading pharma and biotech partners.

What You’ll Do

- Drive Innovation: Partner with customers to solve complex process challenges, from development to commercial scale-up.
- Build Models: Develop first-principles, energetic, and hybrid models that combine fundamental engineering with data-driven AI.
- Optimize: Translate manufacturing data into actionable strategies for process control, scale-up, and technology transfer.

What You Bring

- Experience: 7–10+ years in pharma/biotech manufacturing, process development, or MSAT.
- Modeling Expertise: Strong foundation in first-principles modeling (mass/energy balances, kinetics, thermodynamics).
- Technical Skills:



Experience with upstream (cell culture, fermentation) and downstream (chromatography, filtration) processes.
- Communication: Ability to translate complex technical concepts for cross-functional teams and technical customers, and a desire to be in a customer facing role

Preferred

- Proficiency in Python, MATLAB, gPROMS, Aspen, or COMSOL.
- Experience with digital twins, hybrid modeling, or connecting models to pilot/manufacturing data.
- PhD or advanced degree in Chemical/Biochemical Engineering or Biotechnology.

Why Join? Join a well-funded startup at the intersection of bio-manufacturing and AI. You will solve high-value technical challenges, influence product evolution, and move process modeling from analysis into real-time decision-making.
