Technical Product Lead, Manufacturing Execution System (MES)
Location: Oxford (Hybrid)
We are seeking a Technical Product Lead to lead the implementation of NoMuda VisualFactory, our new Manufacturing Execution System (MES).
Who are Oxford Nanopore?
Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) developed nanopore sequencing, a new generation of sensing technology for faster, information-rich, accessible, and affordable molecular analysis.
The technology is used to understand and characterize the biology of humans, animals, plants, bacteria, viruses, and diseases such as cancer. By enabling biological insights, we strive to improve life on Earth and beyond.
About the MES platform
We recently commissioned NoMuda VisualFactory, and will start the initial configuration in the next few months.
This MES is central to our digital manufacturing strategy, and will drive the manufacturing of our sequencing products and chemicals. It will enable manufacturing process engineers to safely and consistently self-configure workflows while ensuring compliance with GAMP standards and seamless integration with internal systems.
The Technical Product Lead role
You will be responsible for the initial configuration and ongoing performance of NoMuda VisualFactory as a self-service MES platform.
You will collaborate closely with NoMuda engineers, process leads and operators, Quality Assurance experts, regulatory stakeholders, and internal software engineering teams.
