Join our team at AstraZeneca's Biopharmaceuticals R&D in Gärtuna Södertälje and be part of the journey to treat, prevent, modify, and even cure some of the world's most complex diseases!
At AstraZeneca, we put patients first and strive to meet their unmet needs worldwide. Working here means being entrepreneurial, thinking big and working together to make the impossible a reality. If you are swift to action, confident to lead, willing to collaborate, and curious about what science can do, then you're our kind of person.
AstraZeneca's BioPharmaceutical Development (BPD) department consists of scientists, engineers, mathematicians and project managers whose ambition is to transform biologic molecules into life-changing medicines.
The Process Engineering and Packaging Group (PEP) Group sits in the BioPharmaceutical R&D organization. The PEP group develops clinical and commercial fill/finish processes, combination product assembly processes, and packaging for biopharmaceutical products in the AstraZeneca portfolio. This role will be based at Sweden Bio-manufacturing Center (SBC), and will serve to strengthen collaboration between development and the manufacturing operations business units. SBC, our new production unit in Södertälje, is a central part of AstraZeneca's strategy for the production, quality assurance and delivery of biological medicines.
Your role
We are currently seeking a highly skilled individual for Senior Engineer role, with one focused on CP Combination Assembly Design Transfer and the other on Drug Product Aseptic Fill/Finish Technology Transfer. As a key member of the PEP organization, you will play a crucial role in process development for late-stage clinical products, technology transfer to both internal and outsourced commercial manufacturing.
In this role, you will provide technical and strategic leadership for the development of drug product processes and parenteral device assembly processes for late-stage programs. You will apply scientific and engineering knowledge to solve issues arising during development and execution of processes. Additionally, you will lead technology development initiatives, drive a culture of innovation, and create solid partnerships with key interfaces.
Our site in Södertälje is where you'll collaborate with AstraZeneca leaders, particularly within the Global Biological Operations (Commercial Operations) organization, as well as internal/external manufacturing sites within our network. Your experience working with functions such as late-stage formulation development, device development, clinical operations, supply chain, quality, and regulatory will be essential for success in this role.

But that doesn't mean we're not flexible. We balance the expectation of being in the office while respecting individual flexibility.

* Strong statistical background, including SPC and DoE methodologies
* Knowledge of Six Sigma
