About the Job

We deliver 4.3 billion healthcare solutions to people every year, thanks to the flawless planning and meticulous eye for detail of our Manufacturing & Supply teams. With your talent and ambition, we can do even more to protect people from infectious diseases and bring hope to patients and their families.

Sanofi Global MSAT (Manufacturing Sciences, Analytics, and Technology) acts as a crucial link between our R&D and Manufacturing facilities, playing a vital role in securing the present portfolio and delivering future launches of high-quality and innovative drugs and vaccines. By driving its own transformation, Global MSAT fulfils an important function by providing day-to-day Manufacturing Support, focusing on technical and process aspects, effective Life Cycle Management, process robustness enhancement, and yield improvement to optimize performance.

Join our global network and contribute to the launch of 3 to 5 new products annually across various modalities, enabling us to reach and serve more patients and communities. Collaborate with a team of talented and passionate international experts, scientists, and project leaders who are dedicated to inventing, designing, and implementing cutting-edge industrial chemical and biological processes, analytical methods, and process modelling, all in support of Sanofi’s best-in-class ambition.

Under the lead of MSAT and in partnership with many other functions (Manufacturing 4.0, Digital, M&S, R&D), the Process Data Science & Digital team is a transversal team driving Data Sciences innovations, developments, expansion, and integration within MSAT day-to-day operation space and strongly contributes to design the tomorrow’s industrial bio, chemical and analytical processes bridging from R&D to industrial world.

Within Process Data Science & Digital Team, the Mechanistical Modeling and Process Control Platform delivers process modeling to support Quality by Design of new products, accelerates technology and scale transfer activities by numerical comparability approaches and develop techniques for real time process monitoring and control.

We are an innovative global healthcare company with one purpose: to chase the miracles of science to improve people’s lives. We’re also a company where you can flourish and grow your career, with countless opportunities to explore, make connections with people, and stretch the limits of what you thought was possible.
