MES Syncade Engineer – EBR Authoring

We are looking for a Syncade MES Engineer specializing in EBR (Electronic Batch Record) Authoring. In this role, you will be the primary architect of digital production workflows, translating complex Paper Batch Records (PBR) into efficient, compliant, and user-friendly electronic formats. You will work closely with Process Engineers, Quality Assurance, and Operations to ensure that the Syncade environment reflects the physical manufacturing process with 100% accuracy. Key Responsibilities • EBR Design & Development: Create, configure, and maintain Master Batch Records (MBRs) within the Emerson Syncade framework using the Authoring tool. • Workflow Logic: Develop complex behaviors, including material tracking, equipment state management, and calculation logic within the EBR. • Integration Support: Configure and test links between Syncade and the DeltaV DCS layer, as well as ERP systems (SAP) for material reconciliation and order management. • Testing & Validation: Execute "Dry Runs" of authored recipes; support formal Computer System Validation (CSV) by writing and executing IQ/OQ/PQ protocols. • Deviation Reduction: Design EBRs with "Right First Time" principles to minimize human error and streamline the Quality Review process (Review by Exception). • Change Management: Manage the lifecycle of recipes through the formal Change Control process in a GxP environment. Technical Skills & Qualifications • Syncade Expertise: Minimum of 3–5 years of direct experience with Emerson Syncade (specifically the Authoring, Document Control, and Inventory modules). • Automation Knowledge: Experience with DeltaV or other Distributed Control Systems (DCS) is highly preferred for seamless EBR-to-automation handshakes. • GxP Literacy: Strong understanding of 21 CFR Part 11, Data Integrity, and EudraLex Volume 4 Annex 11. • Technical Writing: Ability to document complex process flows and technical specifications clearly. • Software Skills: • Proficiency in XML and SQL (for reporting and data mapping). • Familiarity with InfoBatch or similar reporting tools. • Education: B.S. in Chemical Engineering, Bioengineering, Computer Science, or a related field.
