Role Overview Technical Package Owner/Work Package Owner (WPO) for a contract role of 1 year (with potential extension), based in Visp, Switzerland. The WPO leads the operational integration of mechanical adaptations within an existing mammalian commercial production line, ensuring that the defined engineering scope items are integrated from an operational, GMP-compliant, and documentation perspective.
While the engineering (EPCM) partner oversees mechanical integration, the WPO acts as the operational focal point, responsible for managing documentation and supporting GMP change processes (CRs and TCRs) and supporting the CQV phase by ensuring the appropriate documentation during the IQ, OQ, PQ phases. The WPO is the complementary role to the Work Package (Scope) Lead of the EPCM partner.
Responsibilities Operational Integration Lead: Act as the primary point of contact for the operational integration of the assigned engineering scope items, ensuring seamless coordination between technical execution (external engineering (EPCM) partner & contractors) and GMP compliance.
Document Management: Maintain, create or update, and structure project-related documentation (URS, TS, FDS, Risk Analysis (HAZOP), technical bid reviews, IQ/OQ/PQ test protocols, etc.) for each scope item in alignment with internal quality and document control standards.
Change Management: Contribute to drafting and reviewing of Change Requests (CRs) and Technical Change Requests (TCRs), ensuring technical content accuracy and alignment with GMP requirements.
Technical Oversight: Act as the primary technical point of contact for the assigned scope items, ensuring all mechanical adaptations and operational integration activities meet required specifications. Coordinate with EPCM scope lead / working team to ensure alignment of engineering deliverables with technical and operational requirements.
Quality and Compliance Oversight: In cooperation with internal QA team, ensure that all project activities comply with internal and regulatory GMP regulations and internal quality standards and that proper documentation is available for inspections and audits. Collaborate with QA teams to manage GMP change control processes, including the preparation, review, and approval of Technical Change Requests (TCRs) and Change Records (CRs).
Contractor Oversight: Support the EPCM partner in coordinating and supervising the work of contractors and workshop staff during on-site integration activities, ensuring work is executed according to plan, timeline, and safety standards.
Stakeholder Coordination: Collaborate cross-functionally with Manufacturing, Quality Assurance, Engineering, Validation, and EPCM teams to align on timelines, priorities, and operational readiness.
