System Design & Architecture

• Develop PCS7 system architecture and control strategies for batch and continuous processes.
• Specify hardware components, including PLCs, I/O modules, network components, and HMIs.
• Create detailed documentation (P&IDs, loop diagrams, control narratives, etc.).

Software Development

• Program Siemens PCS7 systems including CFC, SFC, and custom function blocks.
• Integrate with HMI/SCADA systems, including WinCC.
• Perform FAT (Factory Acceptance Testing) and troubleshoot PLC/HMI code.

Project Execution

• Lead automation workstreams during project execution phases.
• Interface with mechanical, process, and quality teams to ensure system requirements are met.
• Ensure compliance with cGMP, GAMP 5, and 21 CFR Part 11 standards.

Commissioning & Validation

• Conduct SAT (Site Acceptance Testing) and support commissioning of PCS7 systems on-site.
• Collaborate with QA to develop validation protocols (IQ/OQ/PQ).
• Provide support during start-up and ramp-up phases.

Maintenance & Support

• Support lifecycle management of PCS7 systems, including upgrades and patch management.
• Assist in root cause analysis and continuous improvement initiatives.
