Implement master data management (MDM), metadata management, and data cataloging solutions to ensure proper data lineage, accessibility, and compliance. Set and enforce standards for API development and data integration (REST, GraphQL, OData), enabling seamless integration using microservices architectures. Ownership orientation: you define your own problem space, drive solutions to completion, and hold yourself accountable to outcomes - not just outputs. Solution-architect instinct: you think before you build, consider the full landscape of available approaches, and choose tools based on fit-for-purpose reasoning rather than familiarity or trend. Scientific integrity: you build models you can explain, defend, and improve - and you apply the same standard to the work of others. Influence through credibility: you earn the confidence of scientists, engineers, and quality professionals by being right, being clear, and being useful - not by title or volume. Bias for impact: you are drawn to problems where the stakes are high and the analytical opportunity is real, and you are energized rather than intimidated by ambiguity. Preferred: 3+ years of hands-on experience designing and building enterprise-grade data pipelines, integration workflows, and data products in complex, multi-source environments. Familiarity with technology transfer workflows, process characterization study design, or commercial process validation (PPQ/PV) in a biologics or pharmaceutical context.
