At Bristol Myers Squibb, our employees often ask, “Who are you working for?”-a question that fuels collaboration, accountability, and urgency in our work. Our purpose-driven culture inspires us to discover, develop, and deliver innovative medicines to prevail over serious diseases. We offer uniquely interesting and meaningful work, opportunities for growth, and a supportive environment that values inclusion, wellbeing, flexibility, and comprehensive benefits. This is work that transforms the lives of patients, and the careers of those who do it.

• Use Claude and GitHub Copilot as a core part of day-to-day engineering to accelerate delivery, while retaining full ownership of code quality, security, validation and maintainability.

• Build reusable AI solutions, agents and workflow automations that remove repetitive effort from the MES development and support lifecycle (code and test generation, document authoring, defect triage, validation deliverables).

• Drive AI adoption across the MES team and partner teams - run technical workshops and office hours, mentor engineers on prompting and AI best practices, and contribute to the Innovation/AI Community of Practice.

• Design, build and migrate workloads on AWS in support of cloud migration and next-generation manufacturing systems.

• Evaluate emerging AI and cloud technologies, develop proofs of concept, and measure adoption and productivity improvements against agreed metrics.

• Deliver project implementations and day-to-day operational support within a validated, GxP-regulated environment, including the associated CSV deliverables.

• Full stack - 4+ years building web applications using JavaScript/TypeScript with React and Node.js, plus Python for automation and AI-enabled services.

• AI-assisted engineering - demonstrable hands-on use of Claude (including Claude Code), GitHub Copilot or comparable assistants to build enterprise-grade production software, including prompt and context engineering, AI-assisted refactoring, test generation and documentation.

• AI enablement - experience building reusable AI assets (prompt libraries, agents, workflow automations, MCP-based integrations) and helping engineering teams adopt them.

• AWS - 3+ years designing and deploying solutions using services such as EC2, ECS/EKS, Lambda, S3, RDS, API Gateway, IAM and CloudWatch, with infrastructure-as-code and cloud migration experience.

• Strong REST API design and system-to-system integration experience, and 4+ years in RDBMS/RDS such as SQL Server including data modelling and query tuning.

• SDLC, Agile, CI/CD and source control (GIT, GitHub, Azure DevOps), with experience managing deployments of varying complexity.

• Knowledge of computer systems validation (CSV), cGxP, GAMP 5, 21 CFR Part 11 and data integrity requirements.

• Excellent communication, technical mentoring and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to collaborate across multiple teams.

Good-to-Have Skills

• Enterprise generative AI platforms (Claude for Enterprise, ChatGPT Enterprise, custom GPTs) and building Model Context Protocol (MCP) integrations to enterprise systems.

• Supporting technology adoption through training, office hours or communities of practice, including measuring adoption and productivity impact.

• Responsible AI, data privacy, information security and access management; automated testing and regression frameworks for validated systems.

• Experience in biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, healthcare or another regulated industry.

• AWS Certified Develope or Microsoft/SQL Server certification(s), a plus.
