Sample 17 Supervisor
On 29 October 2013, Melanie inducted a new employee into the company, and introduced them to the company's CCO, Olivier Garneau. Afterwards, Melanie showed the employee to their Animus station and left them to explore Edward Kenway's genetic memories.[1]
Not long after this, Olivier went missing while en-route to a shareholder's meeting with Laetitia England at Abstergo Industries, and Melanie was forced to assume control in his stead. Simultaneously, Melanie found herself dealing with a series of hacks across the company's servers, security systems, computers, and Animi. All the evidence seemed to suggest that the recently inducted employee was responsible.[1]
Eventually, the hacks escalated to such a level of severity, that Melanie was forced to isolate several members of the Sample 17 team in the Bunker, a basement level of the Montreal facility, that would allow the researchers to continue their work without compromising the rest of the facility.[1]
Eventually, the decision was made to detain the suspected hacker, and Melanie, escorted by armed security, made her way to the analyst's room. Inside, they saw John Standish from IT trying to poison their suspect, but he was shot and killed during the attempt.[1]
Melanie later apologized for suspecting the analyst, reasoning that John had been solely responsible for the hacks all along. She then rewarded the analyst with a sneak-peek of the trailer for the company's latest product, the Pirates of Nightmares.[1]

Melanie later called the research analyst to her office, telling them of Olivier's disappearance, and granting the analyst necessary security clearance to continue exploring Shay's genetic memories.[2]
After the research analyst finished analyzing Cormac's memories, Melanie and Violet were present when Berg gave the analyst a choice of joining the Templar Order or being killed.[2]
