Principle responsibilities:

In this role, you will play a key part in driving and shaping digital laboratory processes across global QC Operations. As a technical expert in eLIMS, you will ensure high-quality data eLIMS configurations that enable efficient, compliant, and paperless laboratory workflows, including product release and Certificate of Analysis generation. You will work independently to design, maintain, and continuously improve data setups while ensuring alignment with current business processes and regulatory requirements.

You will act as a bridge between business and IT, translating laboratory needs into robust system solutions. Your responsibilities will include integrating laboratory instruments and applications into the eLIMS system, reviewing and testing system updates, and creating and maintaining system documentation and standards. You will proactively find opportunities for process improvements and contribute to global harmonization and standardization efforts.

A strong sense of ownership is essential in this role, as you will be responsible for delivering incoming requests in a timely and high-quality manner. You will develop a deep understanding of site-specific laboratory processes and master data requirements to ensure accurate and complete system configurations. In addition, you will lead or contribute to projects within QC Operations, such as continuous improvement initiatives related to the iLAB’s Base Business process.

Beyond your technical responsibilities, you will support the growth of the team by mentoring, coaching, and training colleagues, sharing your expertise and fostering collaboration across regions. You will maintain close relationships with local laboratories and interested parties while ensuring clear and effective communication with the eLIMS CoE leadership.

Qualifications:

You hold a bachelor’s degree or equivalent education and bring 4 to 6 years of experience in a regulated industry such as pharmaceuticals, medical devices, or diagnostics. You have strong experience with LIMS/eLIMS systems and quality environments, and any exposure to analytical testing, quality control, or IT is an advantage. You demonstrate a solid understanding of cGMP principles, FDA regulations, ICH guidelines (Q8, Q9, Q10), and risk management.

You are organized, able to manage multiple priorities, and comfortable working in a dynamic environment where flexibility is required. Strong communication skills in English (minimum level B2) and the ability to effectively train and engage partners are essential. You demonstrate a strong customer focus, build trustful relationships across global teams, and are committed to delivering high-quality results.

You demonstrate an understanding of AI concepts and frameworks, including awareness of responsible and ethical AI practices. You are comfortable using AI tools to enhance efficiency and productivity, including the ability to craft effective prompts to support day-to-day work.

This is a highly visible role within a global Center of Excellence, offering the opportunity to contribute to the future of digital QC laboratories, drive innovation, and make a meaningful impact across Johnson & Johnson’s global network. Travel requirements are minimal, up to 5%.
