design-of-experiments-doe jobs in San Diego

Sr. Research Associate will design and execute design-of-experiments (DOEs) to optimize surface chemistry processes for in vitro diagnostic systems, transitioning formulations from R&D through pilot scale-up and manufacturing under GMP/FDA design control.…See more The role requires hands-on expertise in fluorescence imaging/spectroscopy, microfluidics, molecular biology techniques (nucleic acid extraction, PCR, amplification), and consumable characterization—including test method design, acceptance criteria definition, and root-cause analysis. The candidate will author technical documentation (protocols, batch records, DHF submissions), collaborate cross-functionally with assay development, reagent chemistry, device engineering, manufacturing, and quality/regulatory teams, and support FDA submissions (510(k)/PMA, CE-IVDR). Strong systematic troubleshooting, laboratory skills, and ability to present data to leadership are essential.

Staff Engineer responsible for developing and implementing scalable engineering systems, processes, and operating models to improve collaboration between product development and operations. The role requires applying robust engineering methodologies (DFM, DFA, DOE, DFSS, Lean Product Development) and systems thinking to solve complex organizational challenges while driving continuous improvement and manufacturing readiness.…See more Success demands the ability to influence cross-functional teams without direct authority, use data-driven decision-making, and coach others to build organizational capability across technical and business functions.
