3 Key Consulting is hiring! We are recruiting anEngineer (Mechanical Chemical Biomedical) with Data Science focusfor a consulting engagement with our direct client a leading global biotechnology company.



The ideal candidate is a Data Scientist with a strong engineering background preferably in Mechanical Biomedical or Chemical Engineering with proven experience in simulation modeling and data analysis within a GMPregulated environment. They are proficient in Python MATLAB and Minitab and possess a deep understanding of engineering principles applied to physical systems. The candidate holds either a PhD with no required industry experience a Masters degree with at least 2 years of experience or a Bachelors degree with a minimum of 4 years of experience. They are highly analytical collaborative and adaptable with the ability to translate experimental data into actionable insights. Candidates with degrees in Computer Science Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering or those with purely softwarefocused backgrounds are not a fit for this role.

Job Description:
The Digital Data Scientist will support the Combination Product Operations organization by improving the way the company manages and utilizes data to enhance data analysis and decision making within the organization. We are seeking a highly motivated individual who will be primarily responsible for the development and lifecycle management of digital modeling assets and analyzing scientific and combination product performance data. This individual will leverage insilico and datadriven modeling to evaluate potential opportunities that enable changes in business and operation performance.


The ideal candidate enjoys tackling challenges and excels at enabling insights for decision making using datadriven and physicsbased modeling. This may include but is not limited to the following:
Applying engineering principles to develop insilico models for combination products
Developing enhancing automating and managing analytics and datadriven models
Performing adhoc analysis and supporting special projects; Providing input to management for trend and failure investigation process improvements
Demonstrating modeling and visualization approaches as part of proofofconcept projects
Transforming ambiguous business and technical questions into measurable and impactful projects
Demonstrating critical and analytical thinking skills to explore new opportunities in insilico and datadriven models for combination products.

Skills:
  • Experience with programming in Python MATLAB JMP and/or Minitab for engineering purposes
  • Experience with model simulation and analysis (MS&A) techniques for structural fluidic and heat transfer problems using commercial software such as ANSYS LSDyna ABAQUS COMSOL
  • Experience with mathematical/first principles modeling numerical techniques and uncertainty quantification such as Monte Carlo simulations
  • Familiar with utilizing GitLab for version control code collaboration and project management
  • Data analysis expertise and statistical or mechanistic modeling experience
  • Experience in deriving technical recommendations and specifications from the analysis of measured data
  • Strong communication presentation and technical documentation skills are a plus as is knowledge of process controls
