Process Engineer

The Process Engineer will be part of BioMADE’s Maple Grove pilot plant operations team. This pilot plant will help bridge a gap in the domestic biotech industry (non-pharma), providing clients with emerging fermentation technologies the ability to demonstrate upstream and downstream processes at a scale which supports future commercial scale design. This position is responsible for translating customer fermentation and downstream process requirements into operational procedures, batch documentation, and technical guidance that enable the Operations team to successfully execute production campaigns. Compensation and title (Process Engineer or Senior Process Engineer) will be determined based on candidate’s experience.

Working closely with the Projects Lead, Operations Manager, Shift Supervisors, and Technical Laboratory Manager, the Process Engineer serves as the primary technical interface between customers and production facility operations during process technology transfer, campaign preparation, production execution, and post-production technology transfer closure.

The role requires strong knowledge of fermentation processes and downstream processing unit operations, with particular emphasis on downstream separations and purification systems. The Process Engineer will actively promote and exemplify a “zero harm” safety culture.
