Senior🎓
Top SchoolKen Kite is a Sr. Quality Systems Engineer and scientific programmer with 10+ years of experience applying data engineering and automation to elevate product quality in regulated environments. He blends hands-on R&D expertise—having designed vacuum reactors and led analytical validations—with systems thinking, building a LIMS and numerous Python/SQL/VBA tools that automated large-scale data workflows. At Boston Scientific he drives quality analytics and system enhancements to enable fast, data-driven responses to quality signals, and previously led validation teams and training initiatives that cut costs and improved customer satisfaction. Comfortable liaising with non-technical stakeholders and C-suite leadership, he translates user needs into standardized, ISO-aligned processes and scalable software solutions. Ken’s uncommon combination of physical chemistry research and pragmatic software tooling lets him optimize both instrument performance and the business processes that support it. He is open to lab management or QA roles where he can deepen technical leadership and continue transforming quality through automation.

Jun 2017 - Nov 2018
A website to provide a far more efficient mechanism of training our customers, than in a class room setting. The instrument software is highly complex and requires a strong background in chemistry to operate. It is unreasonable to expect customer to figure it out on their own.
