<div>Drug Substance Division (DSD) AI Lead (Remote &ndash; EST) 
 
We are looking to hire a candidate with the skills sets mentioned and experience for one of our clients within the pharmaceutical Industry. This is a 6+ month contracting role, with potential for extension. This is a Remote role, with a preference for candidates in the EST zone to facilitate coordination with teams across EST, PST, and EU time zones. 
Role Summary: 
You are the AI forward-deployed engineer for Drug Substance Division (DSD) operations within Thermo Fisher's Pharma Services Group. Your mission is to identify where AI can materially improve day-to-day work, then build and ship solutions that teams actually use. You deliver hands-on with AWS, Databricks, Dataiku, and OpenAI, and you drive ChatGPT adoption across DSD workflows. 
You must hold two truths at once: the business needs near-term outcomes, while IT continues building medium/long-term data and AI foundations (for example: MCP server patterns, A2A approaches, reusable agent frameworks, governance and scalable integrations). You create a clear vision that connects immediate wins to scalable, supportable capabilities. 
Key Responsibilities: 
<ul>
<li>
Identify high-leverage DSD use cases: Target opportunities across DS operations (technical knowledge retrieval, investigation support, documentation acceleration, operational insights, exception triage, capacity/coordination decision support).</li>
<li>Build prototypes and deliver MVPs: Create working solutions using AWS/Databricks/Dataiku/OpenAI, integrating operational data and documents into usable workflows.</li>
<li>Data readiness and integration: Assess data availability/quality; define what's needed and influence how to get there (standard sources, access patterns, reusable pipelines).</li>
<li>Roadmap ownership: Produce a DSD capability roadmap with milestones, dependencies, and impact metrics.</li>
<li>Balance quick wins vs foundations: Deliver what helps DSD now while shaping patterns that will scale as the enterprise platform matures (reusable assets, integration standards, evaluation/monitoring, agent orchestration approaches).</li>
<li>Vision and transition plan: Define the DSD AI north star and a staged path from POCs to reusable capabilities to scaled delivery.</li>
<li>Drive ChatGPT adoption: Build prompt libraries, playbooks, and training tied to real DS work; measure usage and outcomes.</li>
<li>Stay current and apply responsibly: Keep pace with AI advances and translate them into practical, controlled, high-impact solutions suitable for DSD environments.</li></ul> 


Required Skills/Qualifications: 
<ul>
<li>
Domain fluency in drug substance operations and how DS work is executed (process understanding, technical documentation, investigations interfaces, performance drivers).</li>
<li>Primary Stack: AWS, Dataiku, Databricks, and OpenAI.</li>
<li>Strong hands-on delivery skills: Python/SQL plus AWS and Databricks and/or Dataiku experience; applied use of OpenAI.</li>
<li>Applied GenAI/LLM experience (RAG, evaluation, guardrails, workflow integration, adoption enablement).</li>
<li>Strong ChatGPT adoption in DSD workflows.</li>
<li>Ability to work independently, drive ambiguity to shipped outcomes, and communicate clearly to senior stakeholders.</li>
<li>Proven ability to balance immediate impact with long-term scalability while platform capabilities evolve.</li>
<li>Practical GxP awareness and experience operating with controlled documents/data access.</li>
<li>Experience working across distributed/global DS operations.</li></ul> 


Other Job Details: 
<ul>
<li>
Job Type: C2C or W2.</li>
<li>Duration: 6 &ndash; 12 months with high possibility of extension.</li>
<li>Location: Remote (preferred candidates in the EST zone to facilitate coordination with teams across EST, PST, and EU time zones).</li>
<li>Pay Rate: 
$70/hr. on C2C. or $62/hr. on W2.</li>
<li>Interviews: Video interviews.</li>
<li>Docs required: ID proof will be required.</li></ul></div>
