Your Role

 

We’re seeking a Bioprocess Applications Engineer 3 to join the Single Use and Integrated Systems PAT & Digital Applications team, part of MilliporeSigma’s Process Solutions business unit. Based at our Bedford, MA campus, this role will support the development and application of integrated platform solutions for next-generation bioprocessing.

In this role, you will combine engineering fundamentals, hands-on experimentation, data analysis, modeling, and customer-focused problem-solving to evaluate emerging technologies and characterize system performance. You will translate application insights into product requirements, technical recommendations, and practical guidance that support both product development and customer success. Key responsibilities include:

 

• Integrate PAT sensors and inline spectroscopy into downstream unit operations, including Protein A chromatography, UF/DF, and other mAb purification steps
• Lead development, optimization, and lifecycle management of Raman chemometric models for mAb streams, buffers, and excipients
• Oversee qualification, deployment, and lifecycle support of Raman instruments and inline sensing units, including model transfer and qualification activities
• Identify and address customer PAT performance gaps, competitive technology landscapes, and process design targets through data-driven solutions and strategic recommendations
• Drive technical strategy in inline spectroscopy, advanced process control, and digitalization of process and analytical tools
• Lead cross-functional contributions spanning R&D, Manufacturing, Quality, Sales, and Product Management to commercialize PAT and digital solutions
• Produce customer-facing technical content, including application notes, technical guides, and webinars
• Support customer trials and investigations; capture actionable feedback to inform product and application development
