Position Brand Description

The Lilly API/Dry Product Network is rapidly expanding to meet the demand for new products, and several new greenfield sites are under construction and will be starting up in the coming years. The new sites are staffed based on full-scale, steady state production, however additional surge capacity is needed to support the site start-up and help quickly ramp to full capacity rates.

The ADN RAMP (Rapid Access to Medicines for Patients) team is a cross-functional team that will bring deep manufacturing expertise and will support each site start-up through Operational Excellence knowledge, rapid troubleshooting and problem-solving capability, and surge capacity resources. This unique opportunity will enable team members to work at our new sites, create a larger Lilly network, build and use their technical skills, and learn leadership skills through formal training and on-the-ground experiences. This team will also build strategies to help other new Lilly sites to start up faster, helping to accelerate Lilly’s vision of serving more patients.

Success in this challenging role will require supporting the sites through startup through direct technical execution, coaching next employees, and strong collaboration – and development of the local technical and operational teams to be ready for full operation.

• The Research Scientist/Senior Research Scientist should also have a proven track record in the following areas.
• Demonstrated ability to commercialize and solve manufacturing problems.
• Hands on experience supporting production at different scales from both a commercialization and supply perspective.
• Proven track record of working with diverse groups across the value chain and in multiple locations
• Understanding the interaction of bulk drug substance and drug product formulation interaction of equipment set(s) with process (drug substance and drug product)
• Significant experience with registration, including authoring of technical reports, Development History Report, regulatory responses, or direct interactions with regulatory agencies.
  

Basic Requirements

• BSc/MSc/PhD in Chemistry/Biochemistry or related science discipline.
• BSc requires 10+ years of industrial experience. MSc/PhD requires 5+ years of industrial experience.
• Deep technical interest and understanding in manufacturing operational excellence principles.
  
  
  

Additional Skills/Preferences
