About Scott Brown

I am a Senior Architect and Technology Evangelist with 30+ years of experience helping organizations in Life Sciences, Pharmaceuticals, and Manufacturing optimize their data acquisition, data flows, and automation systems. I specialize in delivering scalable solutions that integrate IT and OT systems, streamline operations, and ensure regulatory compliance. In my role at Andelyn Biosciences, I led the deployment of the TetraScience Data Platform, enabling real-time process data streaming across GMP and non-GMP environments, and enabling data flows from the Labs and Plant Floor to serve Analytics and AI. My expertise in data acquisition, AI-driven solutions, and manufacturing automation has helped companies unlock the potential of their data and operations. My experience in PLC Programming, OPC, MQTT, Snowflake, and Python allow me to design infrastructures that improve data pipelines, support advanced analytics, and enhance decision-making in real time to drive innovation and efficiency.
