Experience in the development of scientific instrumentation or a strong record of use of analytical instrumentation along with practical experience of handling, operating, and testing scientific instrumentation and the design of experiments, analysis, processing, and presentation of scientific data / Design for Manufacture and Regulatory Approval is ideal. Also desirable would be a strong MS background, especially in Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry (although not essential) and experience of working with GC/MS.
