• Collaborate with MSAT engineers to define study objectives and develop robust experimental protocols
• Author study plans, protocols, reports, and technical documentation in compliance with GLP requirements
• Analyze and interpret experimental data, and present findings to cross-functional stakeholders
• Ensure laboratory activities are conducted safely, efficiently, and within timelines

Manufacturing support & troubleshooting

• Provide downstream process expertise to support manufacturing investigations and root cause analysis
• Design and execute lab studies to support CAPA development
• Work closely with MSAT engineers and lab leadership on process-related challenges
• Support flexible working hours or urgent activities when required

Laboratory operations

• Maintain laboratory readiness, including equipment setup, maintenance, and troubleshooting
• Manage inventory of consumables and coordinate with vendors and suppliers
• Ensure compliance with GLP, HSE, and documentation standards
• Maintain accurate laboratory records and approve operational documentation

Technology transfer support
