Position Brand Description

At Lilly, we unite caring with discovery to make life better for people around the world. We are a global healthcare leader headquartered in Indianapolis, Indiana. Our employees around the world work to discover and bring life-changing medicines to those who need them, improve the understanding and management of disease, and give back to our communities through philanthropy and volunteerism. We put people first. We’re looking for people who are determined to make life better for people around the world.

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 team will directly report through their respective functions but will be coordinated by the Ramp Team Sr. Director and the local site engineering leader.

  • Partner the site engineering team to provide consultation and technical problem solving related to process controls, Emerson DeltaV DCS systems, operational readiness, and C&Q support
  • Coach and develop local technical team capabilities to support acceleration of operational excellence and technical skills
  • Utilize root cause analysis techniques to investigate process and equipment issues and deliver robust and sustainable corrective and preventative actions
  • Monitor, assess, and document equipment performance to maintain ongoing qualification of assets
  • Maintain the basis of safety for process equipment
Basic Requirements
  • BS degree in Engineering or related science field with 8-10 years' experience in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
  • Deep technical interest and understanding of process control/automation systems including DeltaV DCS, automation architecture, and system integration with MES and other IT platforms.
Additional Skills/Preferences
  • Technical knowledge in additional automation platforms including Emerson DeltaV, Rockwell Automation, Siemens, or other related systems
  • Technical knowledge in process instrumentation
  • Technical knowledge in batch control
  • System integration knowledge with Emerson’s Syncade MES platform
  • Excellent verbal and written communications skills
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
  • Collaborative skills with operations, process engineering, and other process team members
  • Ability to coach others
  • Ability to influence without authority
  • Ability to clarify and simplify complex issues
  • Strong trust building with peers and leaders
  • Willing to work off-shift hours as needed to support project milestones and training of new employees
