We are seeking a Senior Calibration Technician to perform calibrations onsite at our client pharmaceutical facilities in Norwood, MA, and other sites in the area if needed.

In addition, Tech II personnel are expected to have a broader knowledge of instrumentation and regulatory compliance, continuing training on new instrumentation, and understanding of pharmaceutical and FDA requirements. Tech III personnel are expected to identify and execute tasks that add value for clients and provide guidance on technical issues, troubleshooting, and innovative solutions. Tech SR personnel are expected to engage with clients strategically, providing high-level direction and developing value-added solutions. Responsibilities/Assignments:

Manage project planning, scheduling, resource allocation, and scope changes, ensuring profitability and safety compliance. Develop and maintain client relationships, expanding PCI services, and leading projects as an Account Manager when appropriate. Skills Required:
