At the Banwol site, this role combines process ownership with reliability engineering, automation, and data integrity; it is the application of engineering fundamentals, math, and science to design, implement, and optimize sterile injectable manufacturing processes on an industrial scale. The Process Engineer ensures the process operates in a safe, qualified state at designed rates while driving long-term continuous improvement. Their primary customer is Operations, and their goal is the elimination of deviations through robust engineering solutions.\nYour Responsibilities:\n1. Process Ownership & Optimization (Primary Loop)\nServe as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) for assigned processes, unit operations, and process-related equipment.\nEnsure the process operates at designed rates; spend time \"on the floor\" investigating performance gaps and implementing technical requirements to return processes to their designed state.\nDevelop and maintain Energy Balances to deeply understand process impacts and variables.\nIdentify, estimate, and commission improvements to manufacturing processes, focusing on long-term optimization rather than temporary project fixes.\nIdentify manual or variation-prone operations and implement automation improvements - PLC/HMI logic, sensors, inspection - with vendors and system integrators to improve throughput, consistency, and operator safety.\nTrack and analyze Key Process Indicators (KPIs) including OEE, process uptime, yields, and plant capacity impact.\n2. Technical Problem Solving & Reliability Support\nLead Root Cause Investigations (RCA) for process failures, focusing on resolving and preventing process/equipment deviations.\nPerform reliability engineering for sterile direct-impact equipment - failure mode analysis, failure history review, and optimization of maintenance intervals - and work with the equipment owners in the Engineering & Maintenance team to identify and remove potential reliability issues.\nLeverage process science and unit operations knowledge to address bottlenecks preventing the process from meeting production demands.\nProvide technical reports and best practices to be replicated and shared across the engineering network.\n3. Quality, Safety & Compliance\nEnsure the process remains in a \"Control, Capable, and Compliant\" state, understanding the safety, environmental, and quality implications of the process. Based on an equipment perspective. \nRecommend and document process changes through the formal change control system, providing cost justifications for proposed improvements.\nOwn data integrity for production equipment and computerized systems - access control, audit trail review, electronic records, and backup - and support computerized system validation and change control.\nEnsure reliable data flow from shop-floor equipment to reporting systems, and support future MES implementation and performance dashboards for Operations, Engineering, and site leadership.\nFocus on the elimination of deviations through engineering design rather than administrative paperwork.\n4. Collaboration & Knowledge Sharing\nSupport, collaborate, and share knowledge with Operations personnel and with the engineers and technicians of the Engineering & Maintenance team to ensure they understand \"how to make veterinary medicine\" safely and efficiently.\nWork closely with Technical Services (TSMS) and the Quality department to ensure the process (owned by Engineering) aligns with the product requirements (owned by TSMS).\nParticipate in the Elanco Engineering development program, learning from Secondary/Tertiary Loop engineers while teaching and supporting operators.\nWhat You Need to Succeed (minimum qualifications):\nBS or higher in Engineering Field (i.e. Chemical, Mechanical, Electrical, etc.)\nMust be able to manage projects of varying complexity, including design, construction, and qualification.\nExperience in sterile/aseptic manufacturing processes.\nMust be proficient in Word, Excel, and PowerPoint programs.\nExcellent interpersonal skills.\nHave excellent written, verbal, and technical communication skills with the ability to independently write reports, business correspondence, Standard Operating Procedures, and presentations to effectively communicate with management and other departments. \nAbility to prioritize multiple activities and multitask to support multiple initiatives\nWhat will give you a competitive edge (preferred qualifications):\nEducation or experience in maintenance.\nEducation or experience in automation.\nEducation or experience in data integrity.\nExperience in Statistics and Statistical Process Control Capability.\nExperience in GMP computerized systems.\nStrong business and technical skills.\nKnowledge of/experience in project management.\nDemonstrated leadership capabilities in a team environment.\nPreferred experience with process support in regulated industry.\nElanco is an EEO/Affirmative Action Employer and does not discriminate on the basis of age, race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, gender expression, national origin, protected veteran status, disability or any other legally protected status\nElanco may use automated tools, including AI, to support parts of our recruitment process, such as reviewing applications against job-related criteria and/or transferrable skills.
