Job description

The Digital Manufacturing Systems Engineer is responsible for the technical design, implementation, integration, testing, validation, and lifecycle support of digital manufacturing systems across the manufacturing network.

This role bridges Manufacturing Engineering, Operations Technology, Information Technology, Quality, Operations, and software development to transform manufacturing requirements into robust and scalable digital solutions. The successful candidate will support Electronic Batch Record, Manufacturing Execution System, and manufacturing application implementations utilizing platforms including Siemens OpsCenter and Ignition.

This position will help establish reusable architecture, engineering standards, validation approaches, and deployment methodologies that enable digital manufacturing capabilities to scale across multiple manufacturing sites.

Responsibilities:

• Translate manufacturing and business requirements into technical designs, system configurations, interfaces, user stories, and acceptance criteria.
• Design, configure, integrate, test, and deploy MES, EBR, Ignition, and other digital manufacturing solutions.
• Partners with manufacturing systems leads Operations, Quality, IT, OT, and software developers throughout the system lifecycle from requirements through production release.
• Lead technical testing and troubleshooting across applications, databases, interfaces, industrial networks, infrastructure, and connected manufacturing equipment.
• Support risk-based computer system validation and qualification activities, including requirements traceability, test execution, configuration verification, deviation resolution, and validation evidence.
• Participate in Agile development activities including backlog refinement, sprint planning, technical design reviews, demonstrations, testing, and release planning.
• Develop and maintain system architecture, interface, configuration, testing, and lifecycle documentation.
• Establish reusable technical standards, integration patterns, test approaches, and deployment methodologies that enable solutions to be scaled across manufacturing sites.
• Support implementation, production startup, stabilization, and transition of digital manufacturing systems to sustain organizations.

Required Qualifications:

• Required: Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, Computer Engineering, Systems Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Manufacturing Engineering, Information Systems, Automation Engineering, or a related engineering or technical discipline.
• Minimum of 3 to 5 years of experience with MES, MOM, EBR, SCADA, industrial software, automation, or digital manufacturing systems.
• Experience implementing software or integrated systems within a regulated manufacturing environment such as life sciences, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical devices, aerospace, or a similarly regulated industry.
• Experience with software development lifecycles, Agile methodologies, requirements management, testing, configuration management, and controlled system deployment.
• Experience with computer system validation, software validation, equipment qualification, or risk-based verification methodologies.
• Experience with manufacturing system integration technologies such as SQL, REST APIs, OPC UA, PLC interfaces, industrial networks, servers, or virtualized infrastructure.
• Experience with Siemens Opcenter, Camstar, Ignition, or comparable MES and industrial application platforms is strongly preferred.
• Experience supporting multi-site manufacturing systems or enterprise digital manufacturing deployments is preferred.
