As an employee, you'll be part of a continually growing organization, working alongside exceptional colleagues and strategic partners worldwide, contributing to global health initiatives.
Moderna's commitment to advancing the technological frontier of mRNA medicines ensures a challenging and rewarding career experience, with the potential to make a significant impact on patients' lives worldwide.
Moderna's mission is to establish a leading-edge research, development, and manufacturing facility at Harwell, as part of a long-term commitment to onshore mRNA vaccine production for respiratory diseases.

Your responsibilities will also include:
- Conduct stability program operations: set down, pull, labeling, verification, inventory updates, and disposal.
- Author, review, and revise stability protocols, SOPs, and technical reports.
- Maintain and trend stability data, performing statistical analyses and ensuring real-time visibility of study progress.
- Interface with external labs for sample shipment and testing data coordination, and update internal databases and binders accordingly.
- Support regulatory submissions by contributing to stability sections and ensuring alignment with FDA, EU, and ICH guidelines.
- Assist with troubleshooting analytical methods and instrumentation as required.

In this highly technical and regulated environment, your ability to absorb evolving regulatory guidance, apply new analytical tools, and quickly learn from experimental data will be critical to your effectiveness. - We digitize everywhere possible using the power of code to maximize our impact on patients.
With increasing use of Generative AI tools and digital systems like LIMS at the core of Moderna's QC infrastructure, your comfort with digital platforms and data-driven execution will allow you to unlock greater speed, accuracy, and compliance.
