A Laboratory Informatics job involves managing and optimizing data, software, and technology solutions in a lab environment. Professionals in this field work with systems like Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS), Electronic Lab Notebooks (ELNs), and data analytics tools to ensure efficient data collection, storage, and analysis. They bridge the gap between IT and laboratory operations, supporting regulatory compliance, workflow automation, and integration of lab instruments with digital systems. This role is essential in scientific, pharmaceutical, healthcare, and research industries to enhance data-driven decision-making.
Typical daily responsibilities in Laboratory Informatics include managing and maintaining laboratory data systems, troubleshooting LIMS issues, and ensuring the integrity and security of scientific data. Professionals in this field regularly collaborate with laboratory staff, IT teams, and quality assurance personnel to streamline workflows and integrate new technologies. You may also be involved in training lab users, performing system upgrades, and developing reports or dashboards for data analysis. This variety makes the role both technically challenging and integral to the smooth functioning of modern laboratories.
To thrive in a Laboratory Informatics role, you need a strong background in laboratory science, data management, and information technology, often supported by a relevant degree in science, computer science, or health informatics. Experience with Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS), electronic lab notebooks, and data integration tools, along with certifications such as CLIA or ASCP, are highly valuable. Attention to detail, strong problem-solving abilities, and effective communication skills are essential soft skills for this position. These competencies ensure accurate data handling, regulatory compliance, and efficient collaboration within laboratory and IT teams.

Biologics Engineering (BE), part ofOncology R&D, is transforming biologics discovery through the integration of laboratory automation, advanced informatics, and AI. We are building next-generation capabilities to accelerate workflows, improve data quality, and enable smarter scientific decision-making. This is an exciting time for the organization as we create an industry-leading biologics discovery platform that unites scientific excellence, automation, and digital innovation.
We are seeking aSenior Automation Scientist/Engineerto help drive this transformation by embedding laboratory automation and robotics into our workflows and shaping the future of biologics discovery science.
About the Role
The Senior Automation Scientist/Engineer will lead the design, integration, and optimization of robotics, high-throughput systems, and associated data workflows across the BE organization-building solutions that connect instruments, workflow control, data systems, and labware into platforms that are robust, scalable, and operationally sustainable. The successful candidate will bring a strong sense of ownership, taking responsibility for the reliability and long-term performance of our platforms.
Working in a matrix organization, they will partner closely with scientists to understand assay goals, advise on the most effective automation approaches, and translate scientific requirements into fit-for-purpose solutions. Success in this role depends on pairing strong expertise in laboratory automation, scripting, and liquid handling with a clear understanding of the underlying science and how equipment capabilities and design choices affect data quality and reproducibility.
Typical Accountabilities
Deliver robust, scalable automation platformsthat integrate high-throughput, bench-scale, and related laboratory systems-partnering with scientists to document and map workflows, capture assay requirements, and translate them into fit-for-purpose automation solutions.
Serve as the technical authorityacross multiple automation platforms, scheduling software, and scripting environments-guiding design decisions, resolving complex technical issues, and advising on how equipment capabilities and limitations shape data quality and scientific outcomes.
Own the reliability and continuous improvementof shared automation systems and workflows, identifying root causes, driving durable fixes, and raising the operational performance of the platform over time.
Support the ongoing operation and troubleshootingof deployed automated workflows to ensure sustained performance and rapid resolution of technical issues.
Grow the technical capability of the teamby training, mentoring, or supervising junior engineers and scientists, and by influencing scientific thinking and project direction across the automation community and broader stakeholder network.
Qualifications and Skills
Essential
Bachelor's or advanced degree in life sciences, engineering, computer science, or a related field, with4+ years of relevant industry experience.
Experience integrating automation with R&D bench science in a biologics, drug discovery, or related life sciences setting.
Deep hands-on experience withdiverse laboratory automation platforms, liquid handlers, and/or high-throughput analytical technologies. Practical experience withliquid class development and labware definition, evaluation, or optimization.
Expertise inautomation scheduling softwareand advanced programming knowledge of liquid handler platforms (e.g.,Hamilton, Labcyte, Agilent), including creating, modifying, and troubleshooting robotics and automation scripts.
Strong understanding of the science underpinning laboratory workflows and assays, and how equipment capabilities and limitations affect automation design and data quality.
Strongcommunication skillsand demonstrated ability to work independently and collaboratively in a fast-paced, matrixed environment.
Demonstratedtrack record of taking initiative and driving durable improvementsto systems, workflows, or team practices.
Desirable
Track record of delivering automation solutions in a biologics discovery setting and influencing scientific direction and technical strategy in automation-related projects.
Experience implementing automation withorchestration platforms(e.g., Green Button Go, Thermo Momentum, Cellario).
Working knowledge ofPython, C#, or similar languages, practical experience in database connectivity, data management, and extracting data from ASCII/delimited files to enable automation-related informatics integration and data-driven science.
Contributions to technology innovation throughconference presentations, publications, patents, or external vendor/partner collaborations.
