Site Name: Singapore - Jurong Posted Date: Dec 23 2024 Provide process engineering expertise for process design, process scale-up, trouble-shooting and process efficiency improvements. Interrogate laboratory working directions to determine optimum plant configuration to ensure that the process [chemistry + plant] meets the scale-up objectives in a safe manner. Support capital projects for R&D Jurong. Key Responsibilities Lead process engineering activities for NCE projects in the pilot plant Review of chemistry scale-up requests with Chemists, Operations and Engineering to determine optimum plant configuration. Define detailed plant and modification design. The time period for introducing new chemistry onto plant is usually less than 4 weeks, during which time any new equipment requirements must be identified, designed, fabricated, installed [by on-site staff or contractors], commissioned, tested and operating staff trained in use before chemical processing starts. Agree level of hazard assessment with Operations and complete Process Risk Assessment. Review batch record, carry out installation checks, write WI [Work Instruction] or SOP [Standard Operating Procedure] as required and train operators. Support campaign on plant, troubleshooting any engineering issues. Technology Transfers Generate sufficient process engineering information for GSC to ensure that the process can be effectively introduced into the desired production plant. Support synthetic organic chemists, process safety scientists, and process chemists in the design of processes suitable for effective scale-up. Assess critical process characteristics and requirements as well as existing plant capabilities and limitations by gathering and interpreting suitable experimental data. Significantly contribute to the development of robust manufacturing processes for the synthesis of bulk drug substance by evaluating alternative processing strategies and recommending potential process improvements. As a member of the ChemDev project team, identify and effectively communicate the best suitable scale-up strategy for a process including recommendations for the application of new processing technologies. Play an important role in facilitating a seamless technology transfer of processes to GSC by the application of state-of -the-art tools and procedures. Capital Projects Act as client representative for capital projects, to ensure all the customer needs are incorporated into the design and installation of new plant and equipment. Identify areas of weakness in the portfolio of processing technologies (plant and equipment) and submit proposals to address these. Define and seek approval for the detailed project scope of plant and equipment projects, and obtain approval for capital orders and PIP's. Review and make recommendations on design proposals put forward by contractors, project engineers, and equipment suppliers. Organise HAZOP studies, act as technical recorder, and issue HAZOP report for all installations where appropriate. Issue commissioning programmes, lead commissioning activities, and issue final reports. Carry out pre-delivery inspection visits for new equipment, prior to acceptance on site. Compile equipment WIs. Knowledge, Skills & Experience Min A level certification Experience in pharmaceutical industry Experience in pharmaceutical process In depth working knowledge of the pharmaceutical process and the safety and compliance requirements for equipment and systems used in it.
