Job Description

We are looking for a detail-oriented and technically proficient In Vivo Protocol Specialist to support our preclinical research workflows. This role involves working closely with scientists to understand in vivo study protocols and entering detailed protocol and assay information into our Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). You will also be responsible for generating study and assay-related reports. This role is ideal for someone who is a fast learner, an effective communicator, and experienced in adopting and navigating new digital systems in scientific environments.

Key Responsibilities:

• Partner with scientists and research staff to gather accurate information on in vivo protocols, study designs, and assay methodologies.
• Input detailed experimental data, protocol steps, and metadata into the LIMS platform in a structured and consistent manner.
• Generate and run standardized and ad-hoc reports from LIMS to support scientific, operational, and compliance needs.
• Ensure completeness, accuracy, and consistency of all entries, proactively resolving data issues by engaging with study teams.
• Maintain up-to-date digital records and ensure protocol amendments are properly documented and reflected in the system.
• Collaborate with IT and informatics teams to test and refine LIMS features and templates based on user feedback.
• Contribute to SOP documentation and user guidance for LIMS-related tasks and workflows.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field.
• Familiarity with in vivo research protocols, animal study workflows, or assay execution.
• Demonstrated experience adopting or working with scientific or laboratory computer systems (e.g., LIMS, ELN, data capture tools).
• Strong computer literacy and ability to learn new software platforms quickly.
• High attention to detail and precision in data entry and reporting.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills; able to liaise effectively with both technical and non-technical staff.
• Strong organizational skills and ability to manage multiple priorities in a dynamic research environment.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience with report generation tools (Excel, Spotfire, or other dashboarding tools).
• Understanding of regulatory and data integrity best practices in laboratory or preclinical environments.
• Prior exposure to laboratory informatics, including LIMS or ELN systems (training will be provided if unfamiliar with specific platforms).
