Job summary

Johnson & Johnson Innovative Medicine is seeking a Principal Agentic Workflow & AI Engineer to design and build agentic workflows that automate secondary data analysis and orchestrate complex data pipelines across multiple lab and AI systems.

You will lead real-time data integration, collaborate with ISD, Enterprise GenAI, and data-infrastructure teams, and mentor others while shaping technical direction for automation in biologics discovery.

Qualifications

• Advanced degree (Ph.D. preferred) in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related computational field.
• At least 3 years experience building scientific workflow orchestration, automation software, including experience in agentic workflows and technical leadership responsibilities.
• Hands-on experience designing real-time or near-real-time data pipelines and integrating complex and heterogeneous scientific data and instrument outputs.
• Experience applying agentic AI and modern LLM-based agents to scientific or laboratory workflows.

Responsibilities

• Design, configure, and continuously improve agentic workflows that automate secondary analysis for biologics discovery assays, replacing fragile manual and ad-hoc scripted steps.
• Build or oversee real-time pipelines connecting automation software, data stores, models, and compute environments.
• Partner with IT and platform teams to implement resilient APIs, observability, versioning, and workflow orchestration end-to-end.
• Partner with our Enterprise Generative AI team to build on shared GenAI platforms, models, and agentic frameworks - extending them for biologics discovery rather than duplicating enterprise capabilities.
• Partner with ontology and MLOps colleagues so automated workflows produce semantically consistent, reusable data and deploy reliably into production.
