Engineer - Automation Engineering – Hardware, Instrumentation and Controls
BioSpace, Lebanon, Indiana, United States, 46052
Overview
Engineer - Automation Engineering – Hardware, Instrumentation and Controls. The Engineer will work as a member of the Automation Engineering Department at Eli Lilly, Foundry. The engineer will provide automation support for one or more operating areas across site and/or for capital projects. Process Automation is core to delivering a right first time facility start up and continued support of ongoing manufacturing operations into the future. In the project delivery phase and startup phase of the project (startup expected 2025 to 2028), automation engineering roles will be fluid and dynamic as we endeavor to support the project delivery, build a new organization, develop and implement the necessary systems and business processes required to support GMP operations, and build the site culture. This will require significant collaboration, creativity and resilience as the site grows to a full scale GMP manufacturing through start up. Responsibilities
Technical Leadership Mentor process control team, including design, controls philosophy, implementation and commissioning Process control work implementation and coordination Develop and implement the Automation Engineering Project Plan Lead and oversee the work of Site Area leads and System Integrators; review Functional Requirements, Design Specifications, automation hardware, application software, and Test Specifications Lead/participate in design reviews and site system hardware reviews; attend equipment and software FATs Lead a team of automation engineers supporting commissioning Provide periodic status updates to Project Management Devise functional requirements and process control strategies for control systems in collaboration with Automation System Administrators Perform automation engineering activities including design, tuning and troubleshooting of control loops, devices and hardware Implement and support electronic systems used to capture process automation related production data Maintain the validated state of the site control system hardware in line with Lilly quality standards including the development and execution of validation strategies and documentation Automation support for capital projects including new product introductions Promote the use of automation to improve productivity, operational efficiency and compliance Develop a network of corporate contacts and leverage corporate expertise when needed Site support that includes shift rotation to provide continuous support of day-to-day activities Organizational Capability
Set and reinforce standards for appropriate rigor in automation work products, in coordination with automation and compliance consultants Demonstrated initiative, planning and organizational skills, ability to prioritize tasks and meet timelines Keen technical curiosity with strong problem-solving skills and a drive for continuous improvement Ability to influence peers and business partners Good written and verbal communication skills for technical and non-technical audiences Knowledge of GMP and regulatory requirements and computer system validation Basic Requirements
Minimum B.S. in Engineering and experience in Automation Engineering, preferably in major pharmaceutical manufacturing Minimum of 2+ years working experience in Biopharma engineering, operations, or manufacturing Additional Preferences
Experience in design, development, commissioning and qualification of highly automated greenfield manufacturing sites utilizing SCADA, DCS, BMS controllers and hardware, valves, motors, control panels, Warehouse and Robotics systems (DeltaV, Rockwell, Johnson Controls, Fanuc, Rosemount, Fisher, etc.) Experience in facilitating and driving decision-making at an organizational level Other Information
Initial location at Lilly Technology Center, Indianapolis; permanent location at Lilly Medicines Foundry in Lebanon, Indiana Lilly is an EEO/Affirmative Action Employer; provides accommodation for applicants with disabilities upon request Note: This posting includes several programmatic and compliance details and reflects Lilly’s current abilities and compensation practices. Actual compensation will depend on education, experience, skills, and location.
