- Team Leadership: Manage and mentor a team responsible for routine maintenance and minor repairs, ensuring smooth day-to-day operations and minimizing downtime.
- Vendor Management: Oversee relationships with external vendors for complex repairs, balancing service quality with cost-effective solutions.
- Documentation & Compliance: Ensure all activities are thoroughly documented to meet FDA, AATB, and ISO standards and support audit readiness.
- Cross-Department Collaboration: Collaborate closely with Quality Assurance, Regulatory Affairs, and Production teams to ensure equipment aligns with operational goals and quality benchmarks.
- System Administration: Administer the PharmaWatch equipment monitoring system, enabling real-time tracking and compliance for critical equipment.
- Continuous Improvement: Proactively identify areas for process improvements, upgrades, and new equipment to drive operational excellence in our expanding facilities.
- Regulatory Knowledge: Maintain a deep understanding of FDA 21 CFR 1271, 21 CFR 820, AATB standards, ISO requirements, and internal SOPs.
Qualifications:
- Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Engineering, Operations Management, or a related technical field.
- Experience: 7-10 years in regulated industries like tissue manufacturing, medical devices, or labs, with extensive experience in equipment validation and maintenance.
- Industry-Specific Expertise: Background in medical device or tissue bank environments, specifically with cleanrooms and equipment like packaging sealers, tray sealers, steam sterilizers, desiccators, incubators, and thermometers, is highly preferred.
