The ideal candidate possesses strong technical aptitude, close attention to detail, and a commitment to quality and efficiency.
Key Responsibilities
1. Equipment Operation & Line Setup
- Set up, adjust, and operate packaging line machinery, including bottle unscramblers, liquid fillers, cappers, induction sealers, labelers, cartoners, and case packers.
- Perform equipment changeovers by installing specific change parts, adjusting guide rails, and loading packaging components (bottles, caps, seals, labels).
- Monitor Human-Machine Interfaces (HMIs) and system gauges to ensure filling speeds, torques, and fill volumes remain consistent and within predetermined parameters.
2. Quality Control & Compliance
- Conduct frequent, scheduled in-process checks (e.g., verification of fill volume, cap torque, label alignment, lot/expiration date print clarity, and seal integrity) and log results accurately.
- Identify, isolate, and quarantine non-conforming or defective products and components to prevent deviations.
- Verify the functionality of online detection systems, such as vision systems for labels and weight checkers.
3. Documentation & Material Management
- Complete all Batch Packaging Records (BPR), equipment logbooks, and clearing documentation in real-time, following strict Good Documentation Practices (GDP).
- Verify materials and bulk liquid products against the batch record prior to staging and staging line clearance.
- Reconcile physical components used during the run against system counts to calculate packaging yields.
4. Sanitation, Maintenance, & Safety
- Execute standard Line Clearance protocols between product runs to prevent cross-contamination and mislabeling.
- Clean and sanitize packaging machinery and the surrounding work area according to established non-sterile facility procedures.
- Perform minor troubleshooting and preventive maintenance (e.g., clearing jams, correcting sensor misalignments) and escalate mechanical faults to the maintenance team.
Qualifications & Skills
Education: High school diploma or equivalent required; technical trade school certification is a plus.
- Experience: Minimum of 1–2 years of experience operating packaging or filling machinery, preferably within a regulated cGMP environment (Pharmaceutical, Biotech, Medical Device, or Cosmetic manufacturing).
- Professional English Proficiency (Written and Verbal): Required to accurately read and execute complex Batch Production Records, interpret equipment alarms, and document real-time data entries in production records according to cGMP standards.
- Technical Aptitude: Experience with liquid filling pumps, capping machinery, torque parameters, and automated labelers.
- Compliance Knowledge: Strong understanding of cGMP regulations and safety requirements (OSHA, PPE, Lockout/Tagout).
- Attention to Detail: Ability to spot minor defects in packaging components, printing, and seal qualities.
- Physical Demands: Ability to lift up to 40 lbs, stand for extended periods, and perform repetitive manual tasks.
