Automation Engineer (I, II, III)

We are seeking an Automation Engineer to support the development, validation, and day-to-day operation of fully automated QC testing workflows in a regulated GMP environment at our Bridgewater, NJ site. This role is central to the success of our Cell Q platform and commercial-scale QC operations. The successful candidate will play a key role in transferring, scaling, and optimizing automated QC test methods across multiple automated workcells, while also providing hands-on runtime operational support for the Cell Q platform and the broader QC laboratory infrastructure. This includes troubleshooting systems, supporting production testing, and ensuring consistent, compliant execution of automated workflows. Working closely with cross-functional partners in Quality Control, Analytical Development, Manufacturing, IT, and Quality, the Automation Engineer will contribute to system validation, user training, technical documentation, and controlled version management of automated test methods under change control. In addition, this role will help design, implement, and maintain automated sample and reagent management workflows that enable scalable, reliable, and robust end-to-end processes for high-throughput QC testing in a GMP setting. Candidates should enjoy working in a fast-paced, mission-driven environment and be prepared to tackle a broad range of challenges as the company grows.
