Job Description
Join us as a Senior Scientist!
At Thermo Fisher Scientific, you'll discover meaningful work that makes a positive impact on a global scale. Join our colleagues in bringing our Mission to life - enabling our customers to make the world healthier, cleaner and safer. We provide our teams with the resources needed to achieve individual career goals while taking science a step beyond through research, development and delivery of life-changing therapies. With clinical trials conducted in 100+ countries and ongoing development of novel frameworks for clinical research through our PPD clinical research portfolio, our work spans laboratory, digital and decentralized clinical trial services. Your determination to deliver quality and accuracy will improve health outcomes that people and communities depend on - now and in the future.
Our PPD® Laboratory Services team has a direct impact on improving patient health through the expertise of scientists, industry thought-leaders and therapeutic experts. As the world leader in serving science, our laboratory professionals bring their commitment to accuracy and quality to deliver groundbreaking innovations.
As a Scientist III, your role will be to function as a flow cytometry subject matter expert, conduct advanced diagnostic tests, ensure the highest accuracy and reliability of laboratory data, mentor junior scientists, and drive continuous improvements in laboratory methodologies and quality standards.
What You'll Do:

• Act as Flow Cytometry subject matter expert for the cell lab team, supporting flow cytometry equipment, training, troubleshooting, and study design.
• Independently performs complex laboratory testing, including challenging routine testing, analytical investigation support, development, transfer, or validation activities.
• Communicates analytical needs, resources, and/or barriers with relevant stakeholders.
• Maintains a strong hands-on laboratory presence and serves as a technical resource during test execution.
• Actively assists with testing execution, troubleshooting, and optimization rather than directing work from outside the lab.
• Applies advanced scientific judgment to execution strategy, data interpretation, and problem resolution.
• Develops and maintains subject matter expertise in one or more analytical methods, assays, or platform technologies.
• Serves as a technical escalation point for execution level testing issues encountered during routine (release, stability, quality control) or non-routine (development, transfer, validation) work.
• Identifies method, execution, or workflow improvements that enhance data quality and downstream routine testing robustness.
• May independently execute or technically lead defined components of method development, transfer, or validation work.
• Authors and/or reviews non-routine technical deliverables such as methods, protocols, reports, and quality records.
• Supports transition of improved or newly established methods into routine testing by strengthening clarity, robustness, and usability.
• Acts as a key in-lab technical resource for complex or escalated routine testing.
• Assists analysts with execution strategy, atypical results, and troubleshooting for established methods.
• Supports quality management through hands-on data review and root cause analysis.
• Trains, mentors, and equips Scientist I and II staff through direct laboratory involvement and technical coaching.
• Reinforces best practices through example and active participation in testing activities.

Education and Experience:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent and relevant formal academic / vocational qualification
• Previous experience to provide the knowledge, skills, and abilities to perform the job (comparable to 5+ years).
• Previous GMP or similar regulated environment experience
• Flow Cytometry experience required

In some cases, an equivalency, consisting of a combination of appropriate education, training and/or directly related experience, will be considered sufficient for an individual to meet the requirements of the role.

• Proven ability to develop and maintain subject matter expertise in assigned methods, assays, or analytical platforms.
• Versed in data analysis with the ability to identify trends, outliers, and atypical results.
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to data integrity, quality, and accuracy.
• Working knowledge of GMP requirements and data integrity principles.
• Excellent organizational skills with the ability to adapt to changing priorities while maintaining focus, composure, and productivity.
• Ability to prioritize and execute multiple assignments with challenging or conflicting deadlines in a dynamic laboratory environment.
