About the Role

This role is ideal for an early‑career automation engineer who wants to learn quickly, work with real biotech/pharma equipment, and grow into an independent project engineer. You’ll support senior engineers on system design, commissioning, troubleshooting, and GMP documentation while gaining exposure to a wide range of platforms and technologies.

You’ll get hands‑on experience with both brownfield integrations and greenfield projects, and you’ll be part of a team that values curiosity, problem‑solving, and continuous learning.

What You’ll Do

• Support design, implementation, and commissioning of automation and control systems.
• Assist with integrating new equipment into existing manufacturing systems.
• Help develop and troubleshoot PLC, SCADA, and DCS code under guidance from senior engineers.
• Contribute to writing and executing commissioning and qualification documentation.
• Participate in on‑site troubleshooting, system testing, and equipment startup activities.
• Work with process and equipment engineers to understand system requirements and design intent.
• Learn multiple automation platforms and contribute to internal standards and best practices.

Your profile

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Computer Science, or a related technical field.
• 0–4 years of experience in automation/controls engineering (internships or co‑ops count).
• Exposure to Rockwell Automation or other PLC/DCS platforms.
• Strong desire and ability to learn new automation software and technologies quickly.
• Understanding of basic process control concepts; familiarity with S88 is a plus.
• GMP experience is preferred but not required; willingness to learn is essential.
• Interest in working hands‑on with equipment such as bioreactors, filtration skids, CIP/SIP systems, and utilities.
• Strong communication skills and comfort working in a client‑facing environment.
• Ability to travel as needed and be on‑site in King of Prussia at least 3 days per week.
