The role ensures data integrity, cGxP compliance, and robust governance for digital recipes, accelerating tech transfer, improving right-first-time execution, and sustaining lifecycle recipe management globally. Operates with minimal guidance and influences cross-functional stakeholders to establish enterprise standards and reusable libraries.

• Translate, author, modularize, and standardize digital recipes aligned to ISA-88/ISA-95 for upstream, downstream, and support unit operations; create reusable equipment-independent modules and parameter sets to accelerate multi-site tech transfer.
• Build and curate a governed enterprise recipe library within PDLM (e.g., DTLS, QbDVision), including versioning, traceability, and linkage to process parameters, CPPs/CMAs, and control strategies.
• Translate process knowledge from PD/Client partners into structured master recipes and functionally-tested procedures ready for deployment to MES/DCS (e.g., Syncade, PAS-X, Delta
  
  V, Rockwell), coordinating mapping to equipment models and master data.
• Define and implement governance (RACI, SOPs, WI, SLAs) for end-to-end digital recipe lifecycle: authoring, review/approval, change control, deployment, and retirement across sites and products.
• Ensure cGxP, data integrity (ALCOA+), and data security requirements across integration between PDLM and other technology layers; partner with QA/CSV on risk-based validation (GAMP 5, CSA) and audit readiness.
• Define recipe data models, parameter ontologies, and naming conventions; steward reference data/master data (materials, specs, equipment classes) with Master Data teams to ensure interoperability and scalability.
• Drive harmonization and standard work across sites (templates, libraries, test protocols, UAT scripts) to reduce cycle times and deviations.
• Support change management and training for business adoption (author/operator training, guidance, job aids); coach teams on interpreting and applying ISA-88 and digital recipe best practices.
• Manage external partners and solution vendors for PDLM capabilities; define user requirements, participate in design reviews, and ensure delivery to standards and timelines.
• Contribute to digital thread initiatives linking development knowledge (DoE, QbD) to manufacturing execution and CPV; support readiness for regulatory inspections and filings.
• And other duties as assigned from time to time.

• Bachelors Degree in Engineering or Scientific related field
• 8+ years’ of relevant experience in biopharmaceutical/biotech manufacturing, MSAT, process development.
• Minimum of 1 year developing processes or recipes utilizing S88 standard
• Minimum of 2 years in tech transfer
• Any combination of education and experience, which would provide an equivalent background to deliver against role expectations.
