Are you eager to implement and maintain automation solutions in large-scale API production? Would you like to work in one of the best IT and Automation organizations in the pharmaceutical industry?

Apply now for a life-changing career as Automation Engineer working with PLCs and instruments

You have an unparalleled opportunity to join us from the early stages of building a new manufacturing site. Come and be part of our international team.

The Position

As an Automation Engineer, you will secure the implementation of Siemens PLC systems and later be part of the maintenance organization, and we are therefore looking for someone with a desire to achieve strong systems knowledge. In this position it is important to keep an operational mindset while securing the delivery of the PLC systems.

You will be responsible for:

  1. Identifying key risks, defining requirements, and ensuring the PLC systems have a robust and reliable design.
  2. Providing governance to the design, implementation, and testing to ensure alignment with your area and other areas within the project.
  3. Having a high focus on working with stakeholders, our external partners, and other automation organizations across API.
  4. 24/7 support going into operations as part of the maintenance organization.

Your main location will be in Kalundborg, in close proximity of the manufacturing sites. As a lot of our collaboration partners work around Copenhagen, it is expected that you will also travel to work in those locations.

The project is of great strategic importance to Novo Nordisk, which has high visibility and support from Senior Management. At the same time, you will have a foot inside Novo Nordisk's IT organization which supports all major expansion projects as well as operations.

Qualifications

We are looking for an ambitious and proactive colleague who can contribute to the team both professionally and personally. The ideal candidate will have a proven track record in most of the following skills and experiences:

  1. You hold an M.Sc. or B.Sc. within IT, Engineering, or have other relevant experience from recent job(s).
  2. 2-5+ years of professional experience within IT Automation; either from operations and maintenance, or from project participation.
  3. Good knowledge of manufacturing processes and requirements. Experience within the Pharma industry or other highly regulated industry (GMP) preferred.
  4. Experience of the Siemens PLC system SIMATIC S7 1500, TIA portal, ProfiNet, OPC UA, and HMI is preferred.
  5. Ability to communicate well in spoken and written English.

As a person, you are proactive, solution-oriented, like to share your knowledge and collaborate effectively and you are energized by taking responsibility for automation. You are structured in your way of working and open to share information with your colleagues, work together as a team, and drive for joint results. You thrive in a multicultural environment and have an open mind-set. You have strong communication skills for collaboration with stakeholders and can translate strategy into ambitious goals with clear priorities.

About the department

The IT and Automation Department is made up of a diverse team with a variety of nationalities and professional experiences. The team atmosphere is very inclusive and the team members support each other in getting acclimated to Novo Nordisk and life in Kalundborg. You will find the team inviting and collaborative in finding solutions and supporting each other's tasks. Due to the fast pace of project life, our team is very dynamic and is able to shift priorities in order to support project milestones.

Working at Novo Nordisk

At Novo Nordisk manufacturing hub in Kalundborg, Denmark, we are growing. With 18 billion DKK investments from Novo Nordisk, we are building four new manufacturing facilities and expanding three existing facilities. The new facilities include state-of-the-art production technologies, which will be bridged with our more than 50 years of experience in biomanufacturing. With the historic investment, 420 new jobs will be created. This is your opportunity to be part of our journey and help establish the future factories of Novo Nordisk.

Today, our 4,000 employees at Novo Nordisk Kalundborg produce half of the world's insulin and a number of biopharmaceutical products, and we are never standing still. Together, we make a difference every day for more than 34 million people living with diabetes and other chronic diseases.

Now is your opportunity to be part of an exciting growth journey. By joining Novo Nordisk Kalundborg, you will gain dedicated colleagues who each day contribute to improving the lives of millions of patients. You will be part of an inclusive environment where we welcome new solutions, take bold action on our ideas, and where we care for our people and our planet.

It is your drive and our passion that makes a difference for their future. Are you ready for a life-changing career?
