Job description

SQL (Programming Language) Laboratory Instrumentation Python (Programming Language) Medical History Documentation JavaScript (Programming Language) Spotfire (Data Analytics Software), Do you have a background in formulation and drug product development with hands-on lab experience? Are you excited about optimizing experimental workflows through data and automation? We’re looking for someone who bridges the lab bench and the digital systems-someone who can understand our processes deeply, identify automation opportunities, and knows how to partner with vendors to bring complex custom solutions to life.

In this role, you will:

  • Drive lab automation strategy: Scope, design, and implement automated workflows to increase throughput and data quality in drug product studies
  • Enable vendor partnerships: Scope and manage complex custom automation projects with external vendors, translating scientific needs into technical specifications and ensuring successful implementation
  • Collaborate across teams: Work with drug development experts, analytics teams, and instrumentation specialists to define requirements for ELN templates, dashboards, and data capture systems that support automated workflows
  • Streamline data flows: Contribute to automating data and information flows during experimental studies-from instrument data extraction to system integration, storage and visualization-reducing manual entry and improving data integrity
  • Build organizational capability: Share expertise in lab and data automation best practices and help standardize approaches across groups, Please note that if you are a US Licensed Healthcare Professional or Healthcare Professional as defined by the laws of the state issuing your license, GSK may be required to capture and report expenses GSK incurs, on your behalf, in the event you are afforded an interview for employment. This capture of applicable transfers of value is necessary to ensure GSK’s compliance to all federal and state US Transparency requirements.
