Manufacturing Associate

Description:

This individual will be spending 100% of their time in a cleanroom environment long term. At this time it is about 75% desk work since they are still in the production stage. This position will consist of transforming the frozen plasma into freeze-dried plasma.

They will be walking into the freezer to grab the frozen plasma and put it into a machine that will thaw it out. Once this is completed they will transfer the liquid plasma into another bag to put it into the lyophilizer for 7 days to extract all of the moisture to turn it into a freeze dried substance. They will repackage the plasma in the kitting room after that. Every unit is tracked in a BECS system, so attention to detail and experience in a GMP environment is needed.

When they are not spending their time in the cleanroom they will be reviewing procedure and redlining the production procedure to continuously improve it. At this point in time the majority of their time is spent working at the desk.
