Ensure compliance with 21 CFR Part 11, data integrity, GAMP5, and other relevant GMP regulations.
Collaborate with QA, Validation, Engineering, and IT to support system lifecycle management and change control.
Support deviation investigations, CAPAs, and root cause analysis for automation-related issues


Minimum Requirements:


B.S. in Electrical Engineering, Chemical Engineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
3+ years of experience in automation engineering within a biotech, pharmaceutical, or GMP-regulated environment.
Experience with automation platforms such as Allen-Bradley, Siemens, DeltaV, Rockwell, Wonderware/AVEVA, or similar.
Strong understanding of control systems, instrumentation, and network infrastructure in GMP settings.
Familiarity with automation validation and documentation standards.
