Job Description

SUMMARY

Global Engineering Technical Services (part of Global Engineering) oversees the business systems for Global Engineering’s knowledge management, good engineering practices and electronic systems containing all engineering drawings and manuals.

POSITION DESCRIPTION

Global Engineering’s primary duties are 1) deliver capital projects (design, procurement, construction, testing, handover) and 2) support production of medicines within our US and Switzerland facilities. To perform these duties efficiently we require our engineering knowledge to “flow” and for this we need easily accessible, reusable data/information/knowledge which requires proper creation, identification, collection, review and sharing.

The intern position will work to identify and improve areas where we have breakdowns in the flow of knowledge which can be anywhere from creation to the ease of reuse. Sometimes this may require creating a new method for collecting data, or normalizing data, or migrating existing data to a new repository to improve accessibility, or developing a Microsoft Power BI report to transform the data and visualize in a manner that makes the information usable.

The primary outcomes of improving our flow of knowledge are better communication, collaboration, and re-use of information. Benefits will include:

• Real-time reports and dashboards of a data and information
• Improved collaboration by focusing everyone on the same information
• Improved awareness, use, and reduced duplication of data/information
• Efficiency gains
• Developing content for visually communicating engineering information
• Consolidation of scattered information
• Migration of information from end-of-life and/or less functional systems

The intern will have the opportunity to:

• Use office productivity and analysis tools (Power BI, Tableau, Power Automate, SharePoint Online and Excel)

• Learn about engineering within major biopharmaceutical company
• Learn about knowledge management
