What you will do

Lets do this. Lets change the world! In this vital role for the Digital Integration & Predictive Technologies (DIPT) organization you will lead the advancement of our predictive modeling and control platforms at the Puerto Rico site (AML) in collaboration with the site teams to achieve Amgens digital plant ambitions.

At Amgen, we envision a future where manufacturing plants are adaptive, responding in real-time to changing conditions and new information to automatically maintain high quality and optimal yields, while ensuring reliable and efficient operations. Achieving this vision requires substantial investment in digital technologies, methodologies, and skills putting the right people and teams in the right positions to collectively advance our digital maturity and turn the digital plant vision into a reality.

DIPTs Digital Manufacturing team is at the heart of the digital plant effort. In addition to developing strategic elements of the digital plant design, we are responsible for applying predictive models and advanced control techniques to improve the way Amgen runs its global manufacturing plants. Nearly every project we work on involves reimagining the way we consume, analyze, and derive meaning from real-time process and equipment data. To do this well, we must influence the way foundational data systems are designed and develop modeling assets (models + supporting infrastructure) that build on these data systems to deliver useful products to a diverse set of customers across the Operations organization.

The Data Scientist will serve as DIPTs AML liaison and lead a variety of digital innovation projects at AMLs manufacturing plants (drug substance, drug product, and packaging), overseeing both strategic and tactical components of these projects. You will work closely with our collaborators and customers in AML Manufacturing and Process Development (PD) to identify and prioritize local objectives and then partner with DIPT teammates, Operations IS, and AML PD digital teams to design and launch modeling solutions. As part of Amgens significant investment in digital technologies, you will also advance DIPTs contributions to the broader Digital Plant strategic framework at the AML site.

This is an opportunity to shape the way Amgen uses digital technologies to reinvent how a manufacturing plant operates. This is a unique, high-impact, high-visibility position with ambitious goals and the freedom to creatively mold the role to achieve those goals.

Amgens Digital Integration and Predictive Technologies organization is a global Process Development function that develops and deploys advanced computational technologies in: 1) data capture, integration, management and predictive analytics, 2) empirical and first principles modeling towards improved process understanding and robustness, 3) monitoring, control, prediction and optimization of manufacturing, and 4) advanced sensors and automatic model predictive control. We are a diverse, collaborative, cohesive team, with partnerships spanning the organizational structure and globe.

Additional responsibilities include but are not limited to:

  • Provide advanced statistical process analysis support for critical projects
  • Partner with AML Manufacturing, PD, IS, and colleagues on site to understand business needs, identify opportunities to solve those needs, and to innovate through application of digital technologies
