Background

About Tyler Hicks

I am an experienced Fermentation Aseptic Technician II at Zoetis, specializing in bacterial-based vaccine manufacturing. I excel in scaling bacterial cultures, executing downstream processing, and performing various laboratory testing, all while ensuring strict adherence to SOPs, cGMP guidelines, and regulatory standards. My current role demands technical precision and effective cross-functional communication, qualities I’ve developed and refined throughout my career. Before joining Zoetis, I built a diverse professional background that sharpened both my technical and interpersonal skills. As a Lead Sales Associate at Dollar General, I honed my abilities in customer engagement, team leadership, and operational logistics in a fast-paced retail environment. My technical foundation was further strengthened through roles as a Lead Printer Technician at Lifetouch and as a Printer Technician at International Office Technologies, where I managed equipment maintenance, troubleshooting, process optimization, and inventory management, skills that now enhance my approach to problem-solving in a biomanufacturing setting. Early on, my time as a Warehouse Associate at Medtronic instilled a strong work ethic, attention to detail, and an understanding of efficient operational workflows. Together, these experiences have shaped me into a well-rounded professional who is dedicated to continuous learning, process improvement, and delivering high-quality results in every endeavor.
