Join our technical excellence team as a Senior Instrumentation and Process Calibration Technician, where you'll provide advanced technical oversight for the calibration, maintenance, and optimization of complex instrumentation and control systems across campus facilities, utilities, and process equipment. This position is critical to JLL's mission of delivering precision facility management services by ensuring all systems operate within specified parameters while maximizing energy efficiency. You'll leverage extensive technical expertise to manage external service providers, conduct sophisticated troubleshooting, and implement decisive solutions that protect equipment integrity and personnel safety. This role offers an exciting opportunity for experienced professionals to apply their calibration mastery in a pharmaceutical or biotechnology environment while maintaining the highest standards of compliance and operational excellence.

What your day-to-day will look like:

• Execute advanced troubleshooting and diagnostics for building automation, process control, and analytical instrumentation systems, including precision calibrations across diverse instrument portfolios such as flow meters, pressure transmitters, temperature sensors, and analytical equipment.
• Perform multi-point calibrations on temperature transmitters, pressure sensors, flow devices, pH meters, conductivity analyzers, and gas chromatography systems using NIST-traceable standards, while executing linearity checks, span adjustments, and zero calibrations on analytical balances, spectrophotometers, particle counters, and environmental monitoring equipment.
• Calibrate critical pharmaceutical systems including Water for Injection (WFI) conductivity and TOC analyzers, Clean Steam quality monitors, compressed gas purity analyzers, HVAC differential pressure transmitters, environmental chamber instrumentation, and filling line equipment.
• Generate comprehensive calibration certificates documenting as-found/as-left conditions and measurement uncertainties, maintain calibration databases, ensure IQ/OQ/PQ compliance, and execute activities per FDA, EMA, and ICH guidelines with 21 CFR Part 11 compliance.
• Develop risk-based calibration strategies considering instrument criticality and regulatory requirements, analyze calibration data to optimize intervals, recommend equipment upgrades, and coordinate schedules to minimize process disruption while meeting compliance timelines.
• Work with Building Management Systems (BMS) and Computerized Maintenance Management Systems (CMMS) to perform daily tasks and manage current Good Manufacturing Procedure (cGMP) data.
• Deliver technical training on calibration techniques and troubleshooting methodologies while demonstrating leadership and managing competing priorities effectively.

Required Qualifications:

• Valid driver's license and ability to work in clean room manufacturing environments, including compliance with gowning and respirator protocols.
• Demonstrated ability to interpret technical drawings, P&IDs, and instrument specifications with strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities for complex technical challenges.
• Proficiency in standard business applications including MS Office Suite, Outlook, and CMMS systems.
• Physical capacity to perform overhead work, operate at elevated heights, work from ladders, transport equipment, and lift heavy materials regularly.
• Flexibility to work in diverse environmental conditions, including outdoor assignments in various weather conditions, with availability for on-call responsibilities as operational needs require.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Instrumentation, or related technical discipline with minimum five years of hands-on experience in instrumentation, controls, and calibration within pharmaceutical or biotechnology environments.
• Comprehensive knowledge of calibration standards, procedures, and documentation requirements for analytical and process instruments, with proficiency in calibration software and diagnostic tools including Fluke systems and CMMS Maximo platforms.
• Relevant professional certifications in instrumentation, calibration, or controls (ISA, NIST) with demonstrated application of GMP and GLP principles in instrumentation and calibration activities.
• Working knowledge of 21 CFR Part 11 compliance requirements and familiarity with Building Management Systems including Siemens, DeltaV, Honeywell, and Allen Bradley platforms.
