What you will do

Let's do this. Let's change the world! In this dynamic role, you will be a Senior Associate in the Manufacturing organization at Amgen North Carolina (ANC), supporting the ANC2 facility expansion and startup program. This essential role will be part of the Services team responsible for enabling manufacturing operations through weigh and dispense of raw materials, material receiving and handling, media, buffer, and solution preparation, and component preparation activities, including parts washing and autoclave operations.

As a Senior Associate, you will provide technical and operational support to the Services area, help coordinate daily activities, support training and qualification of staff, and promote safe, compliant, and reliable execution. You will partner across functions to support successful operational readiness, technology transfer, facility startup, and the ramp-up of manufacturing operations within the new facility.

This role may require work outside standard business hours, including non-standard shifts, as needed to support startup, commissioning and qualification (C&Q), and engineering execution. During this phase of startup, you will be expected to work a Monday through Friday schedule from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. As the business transitions from C&Q to manufacturing operations, this essential position will move to a 12-hour, 2-2-3 schedule from 5:45 a.m. to 6:15 p.m., supporting critical 24/7 manufacturing operations.

As the facility transitions to steady-state operations, the role will shift toward routine manufacturing execution, oversight of daily floor activities, troubleshooting, coaching and development of staff, cGMP documentation, and continuous improvement.

With general direction, the Senior Associate will support and help lead Services floor operations in accordance with current Good Manufacturing Practices (cGMP), applicable procedures, safety requirements, and established production schedules.
