TDS Digital Ops & Strat Intern

Johnson & Johnson•Malvern, PA

21h•Onsite

About The Position

Johnson & Johnson is seeking a highly motivated co-op student for its TDS Digital Operations & Strategy organization in Malvern, Pennsylvania. The role focuses on bioprocess advanced analytics, data science, and Process Analytical Technology (PAT), at the intersection of bioprocessing, analytical technologies, and data science. The intern will support the development of advanced analytical and modeling approaches for bioproduction and gain hands-on experience with process sensors, spectroscopy, multivariate modeling, programming, model development, and analytical tools while collaborating with cross-functional scientific and technical teams. The co-op is a six-month term, typically from May to August 2027 (flexible), with a full-time schedule of 40 hours per week and fully on-site work. One vacancy is available.

Requirements

Completion of undergraduate freshman year at an accredited university.
Currently pursuing a Bachelor's, Master's, or PhD degree in Chemical Engineering, Biological Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Biology, Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Microbiology, Pharmaceutical Sciences, Data Science, or a related scientific, engineering, or quantitative discipline.
Cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher across all college coursework.
Programming experience, including Python coding and experience supporting software development, model building, and/or analytical tool development.
Strong analytical, quantitative, statistical, and problem-solving skills.
Ability to analyze and interpret complex scientific or process datasets.
Ability to work independently as a self-starter and collaborate effectively within multidisciplinary teams.
Ability to manage multiple projects and priorities while delivering results.
Permanent authorization to work in the U.S. without requiring employment visa sponsorship at application or in the future. Students on CPT, OPT, or STEM OPT generally do not meet this requirement unless eligible for an alternative long-term status that does not require company sponsorship.
If under 18, the candidate may need state-required working papers or other documentation and parent consent for a background check.
