  • Perform root-cause analysis and resolve automation-related issues.
  • Support automation validation, change control, investigations, and data integrity activities.
  • Collaborate with Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, and Validation teams.
  • Support continuous improvement of manufacturing automation systems.

Required Qualifications

  • 4 10 years of relevant pharmaceutical or biopharmaceutical automation/controls experience.
  • Strong hands-on PLC programming and troubleshooting experience.
  • Experience with Allen-Bradley and/or Siemens PLC systems.
  • Strong SCADA/HMI experience with systems such as Ignition, iFix, or WinCC.

  • Experience with industrial networking and automation communication protocols preferred.
  • Experience with sterile manufacturing or filling lines highly preferred.
