About The Position

Johnson & Johnson is currently seeking an Advanced Process Analytics Co-op to join our MSAT PSMD team located in Titusville. Within Manufacturing Science & Technology (MSAT), the Process Science Modeling & Data (PSMD) team partners with process scientists, engineers, and manufacturing organizations to solve complex process challenges through modeling, data analytics, and digital technologies. PSMD develops and deploys a broad range of solutions, including mechanistic models, machine learning tools, process monitoring applications, and spectroscopy-based predictive models that help improve process understanding and manufacturing performance. You will contribute to ongoing projects focused on the development and deployment of spectroscopy-based modeling and analytics solutions for pharmaceutical manufacturing applications. The key focus of this role is to help transition existing modeling workflows into scalable, sustainable tools that can be broadly applied across the organization. These capabilities support process understanding and data-driven decision making throughout the product lifecycle.
