1 week ago
Are you passionate about significantly improving the future of medicine? Do you believe that people are the most important asset of any company? If so, join AmplifyBio
AmplifyBio is a leading contract research organization with a comprehensive range of services that span from being an outsourcing partner for discovery stage R&D work, a preclinical CRO performing safety efficacy and toxicology studies for small molecules and advanced therapies alike, and, most recently, an expansion into manufacturing services for cell, gene, and mRNA-based therapeutics.
The AmplifyBio ecosystem is comprised of three distinct business units: ADOC (South San Francisco, CA)– Amplify's Discovery, Optimization, and Characterization laboratories: ASET (West Jefferson, OH) – Amplify's Safety, Efficacy, and Toxicology Site; and the most recently opened AMEC (New Albany, OH) – Amplify's Manufacturing Enablement Center.
About AMEC New Albany, OH: AmplifyBio’s Manufacturing Enablement Center provides customizable cGMP suites to enable advanced therapy manufacturing in a “hoteling model,” traditional contract development and manufacturing (CDMO) or a hybrid model. Partnering with AmplifyBio for manufacturing cell therapy, gene therapy, mRNA, plasmid, or other modality is quite different from a typical CDMO experience. The goal is to provide flexible solutions customized to client needs while bringing full expert partnership. At AmplifyBio drug developers will find an innovation-rich ecosystem designed to advance a diverse range and class of pharmaceutical products across development stages.
AmplifyBio is seeking to hire a (Sr.) Manager/Associate Director of Manufacturing to join our growing team
The (Sr.) Manager/Associate Director, Maufacturing at AmplifyBio’s Manufacturing Enablement Center (AMEC) Facility is responsible for leading and overseeing the manufacturing operations within a GMP-compliant facility specializing in advanced therapies.

The incumbent collaborates closely with cross-functional teams, including research and development, MSAT, quality assurance, quality control, and client representatives, to drive efficient and compliant manufacturing operations.
The successful candidate will play a critical role in ensuring the quality, compliance, and efficiency of manufacturing operations within a cutting-edge field of biotechnology

- GMP Compliance:
- Oversee all manufacturing activities to ensure compliance with GMP regulations, FDA guidelines, and industry standards specific to cell and gene therapy.
- Adhere to robust quality systems, including batch record review, deviation management, and change control processes, to ensure regulatory compliance and product quality.
- Production Planning:
- Develop and execute production schedules to meet clinical trial and commercial supply requirements, while optimizing resource utilization and minimizing lead times.
- Monitor manufacturing processes closely, identifying and addressing deviations or issues that may impact product quality or production timelines.
- Technology Transfer and Scale-Up:
- Collaborate with MSAT teams to transfer new cell and gene therapy products from development to manufacturing, ensuring successful scale-up and process validation.
- Evaluate and implement new technologies, equipment, and manufacturing platforms to enhance production efficiency and capability.
- Continuous Improvement:
- Lead continuous improvement initiatives to optimize manufacturing processes, reduce costs, and enhance product quality and yield.
- Drive root cause analysis and CAPA activities to address deviations and non-conformances, ensuring continuous process improvement and compliance.
- Cross-Functional Collaboration:
- Collaborate with quality assurance, quality control, and other stakeholders to ensure timely resolution of quality issues, regulatory compliance, and successful regulatory inspections.
- Interface with external partners, contract manufacturing organizations (CMOs), and vendors to support technology transfer, raw material sourcing, and manufacturing outsourcing activities.
- Safety and Environmental Compliance:
- Maintain a safe working environment for manufacturing personnel by implementing and enforcing safety protocols, training programs, and risk assessments.
- Ensure compliance with environmental regulations and promote sustainability initiatives within manufacturing operations.
We Would Love to Hear from You If:
- Bachelor's or advanced degree in biological sciences, bioengineering, or related field.
- Minimum of 5 years of experience in cell and/or gene therapy manufacturing, with at least 2 years in a leadership or managerial role.
- In-depth knowledge of GMP regulations, FDA/EMA guidelines, and industry best practices specific to cell and gene therapy manufacturing.
