The Principal IT Lab Integration Developer is responsible for designing, developing, validating, and supporting integrations between laboratory systems, analytical instruments, enterprise platforms (LIMS), and data platforms within a regulated pharmaceutical environment. This role combines application development, system integration, data management, and regulatory compliance within a GMP-regulated laboratory environment.

As a Principal IT Lab Integration Developer, a typical day might include the following:

  • Support the design and implementation of the QC Lab Orchestration Layer, enabling workflow coordination across all Laboratory instruments and middleware.
  • Define integration patterns (APIs, event-driven, message queues, file-based where needed).
  • Ensure scalability, resilience, and performance of lab integrations.
  • Translate QC business processes into orchestrated digital workflows.
  • Design and develop integrations between instruments and the Orchestration Layer.
  • Build and support API-based, file-based, and message-based integrations (REST, SOAP, SFTP, JSON, XML).
  • Provide level 2/3 support for QC Lab Systems.
  • Partner with QC Analysts, QA, IT infrastructure and external vendors.
  • Develop instrument data capture and automation workflows.
  • Configure and support middleware and integration platforms.
  • Ensure all integrations comply with GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, and data integrity (ALCOA+) requirements.
  • Participate in Computer System Validation (CSV/CSA) activities (IQ/OQ/PQ documentation).
  • Perform impact assessments and change control documentation.
  • Monitor and troubleshoot integration issues in production environments.
  • Collaborate with QC, R&D, Manufacturing, and QA teams.
  • Support audits and regulatory inspections.

This role may be for you if you have:

  • Skill in connecting various lab instruments (e.g., liquid handlers, analyzers) to central platforms like LIMS or ELNs to automate data capture and reduce manual transcription.
  • Knowledge of RESTful APIs, web services, and middleware tools used to bridge communication between the orchestration engine and disparate lab hardware.
  • Proficiency in languages such as Python or VBA for customizing automated workflows and data parsing.
  • Ability to understand data formats across different systems, ensure consistent values/naming conventions, and providing the correct data to the authorized locations.

In order to be considered for this position, you must hold a BS/BA in Information Technology, Math or related field and

  • Senior: 5 years of relevant experience or equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • Principal: 8 years of relevant experience or equivalent combination of education and experience.
