We strive to have a remarkable impact on people's lives across several key therapeutic areas including immunology, oncology and neuroscience - and products and services in our Allergan Aesthetics portfolio. For more information about AbbVie, please visit us at www.abbvie.com. Follow @abbvie on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, X and YouTube.\n The Senior Scientist I will be part of a centralized modeling team supporting the development and implementation of a broad range of models across early- and late-stage bioprocess development for diverse biologic modalities, including monoclonal antibodies, antibody-drug conjugates, bispecifics, and gene therapies. Working collaboratively across functions, the scientist will develop and apply innovative modeling and experimental approaches to address scientific and process development challenges, including scale-up and technology transfer. The team’s mission is to continually build next-generation modeling capabilities through deep integration with artificial intelligence (AI) tools, delivering business impact with agility.\nResponsibilities:\nIndependently conceptualize, build, and apply fit-for-purpose models for upstream cell culture and downstream purification processes across early- and late-stage bioprocess development.\nTranslate scientific and business challenges into modeling strategies that deepen process understanding, guide process optimization, and support scale-up and technology transfer.\nAdvance next-generation modeling capabilities through deep integration with AI tools to accelerate model development and implementation and deliver business impact with agility.\nWork closely with the Automation and Digitalization team to establish data workflows and integrated tools that enable efficient model building and implementation.\nIntegrate multidisciplinary data and scientific fundamentals to assess model performance, assumptions, and limitations, draw actionable conclusions, and resolve key project challenges.\nCollaborate in an agile, fast-paced matrix team spanning IT, Data Science, CMC, and Development to align priorities, adapt to evolving needs, and deliver modeling solutions; provide scientific mentorship and technical guidance as appropriate.\nCommunicate modeling approaches, results, limitations, and recommendations clearly and efficiently to project teams and leadership to support timely, informed decisions.\nSupport model transfer and lifecycle management, including implementation, documentation, maintenance, updates, and assessment of continued fitness for purpose, in accordance with applicable corporate, safety, and GxP standards.\nServe as a primary author of modeling-related technical and regulatory documents, peer-reviewed publications, and scientific presentations, and contribute to patentable innovations as appropriate.\nProactively evaluate relevant literature and emerging technologies, identify innovative modeling opportunities aligned with the centralized team’s strategy, and incorporate advances into projects and broader modeling capabilities.\n Bachelor’s degree or equivalent education and typically 10 years of experience, Master’s degree or equivalent education and typically 8 years of experience, PhD degree or equivalent education and 0-2 years of experience.\nEducation background in chemical engineering, biomedical engineering, biochemistry, biochemical engineering, or biotechnology is preferred.\nExperience in both upstream cell culture and downstream purification process development is preferred. Demonstrated expertise in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling, cell culture kinetics and metabolic flux balance modeling, chromatography modeling, and filtration theory and modeling is preferred.\nFamiliarity with AI tool development and experience integrating AI tools into the bioprocess development ecosystem.\nDemonstrate excellent communication skills and specifically illustrate strong oral and written technical communications. Seamlessly present research outcomes to multifunctional teams\nPlay a strong team player in a cross functional collaborative environment thriving for world class excellence and maintains strong working relationships with internal, global, and external collaborators.\nDemonstrated problem-solving skills and capability to overcome complex issues.\nDemonstrated success in coordinating and executing important projects to achieve business goals.\nMust have a “results-oriented” work ethic and a positive “can-do” attitude with a strong sense of urgency and self-motivated desire to achieve.\n Applicable only to applicants applying to a position in any location with pay disclosure requirements under state or local law:\nThe compensation range described below is the range of possible base pay compensation that the Company believes in good faith it will pay for this role at the time of this posting based on the job grade for this position. Individual compensation paid within this range will depend on many factors including geographic location, and we may ultimately pay more or less than the posted range. This range may be modified in the future. \nWe offer a comprehensive package of benefits including paid time off (vacation, holidays, sick), medical/dental/vision insurance and 401(k) to eligible employees.\nThis job is eligible to participate in our short-term incentive programs. \nNote: No amount of pay is considered to be wages or compensation until such amount is earned, vested, and determinable. The amount and availability of any bonus, commission, incentive, benefits, or any other form of compensation and benefits that are allocable to a particular employee remains in the Company's sole and absolute discretion unless and until paid and may be modified at the Company’s sole and absolute discretion, consistent with applicable law.\nAbbVie is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to operating with integrity, driving innovation, transforming lives and serving our community.
