About The Position

The Robotics Technology Deployment Steward is a member of Roche’s Drug Substance Technology Deployment Group within Global Manufacturing Science and Technology. The role connects central robotics strategy with manufacturing-site operations, supporting technology scouting, translating strategy into value-driven proofs of concept, and deploying standardized robotics and automation solutions to address operational challenges across global production sites. Working with the Robotics Technology Strategy Lead, the Steward helps shape the global robotics roadmap and represents site feasibility perspectives. The role leads cross-functional teams through rapid, ROI-driven proofs of concept and makes data-backed recommendations to scale, pivot, or stop technologies. It also drives deployment after capital approval, coordinates IT/OT integration, and prepares site integration and qualification documentation for handover to local operations.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s, master’s, or PhD in Robotics Engineering, Mechatronics, Electrical or Mechanical Engineering, Automation Engineering, Chemical or Biochemical Engineering, or a related technical discipline.
  • At least 6 years of relevant hands-on industrial experience in robotics integration, complex automation deployment, or manufacturing engineering within pharmaceutical/biotech or another highly regulated industry, with direct involvement in major CAPEX project lifecycles and CQV exposure.
  • Ability to lead cross-functional technical teams and multi-site project deployments without direct hierarchical authority.
  • Practical understanding of IT/OT integration layers such as SCADA and MES, and basic data/coding literacy such as Python or SQL to assess system performance and support data-informed decisions.
  • Excellent project management and problem-solving skills, with a track record of completing projects.
  • Experience deploying targeted automation solutions in the Drug Substance domain, such as AMRs for heavy mobile logistics, automated fluid transfer, robotic aseptic sampling, or automated single-use system manipulation.

Nice To Haves

  • Additional education or certifications in Business Administration (such as an MBA), Change Management, or Systems Engineering.
  • Data processing capabilities.

Responsibilities

  • Act as the Drug Substance liaison for manufacturing sites, identify operational bottlenecks, assess local challenges from a global network perspective, and support scouting for robotics and automation solutions.
  • Partner with the Technology Strategy Lead to shape the global/network robotics roadmap, provide hands-on execution and technical expertise, and represent site feasibility perspectives.
  • Lead cross-functional teams across MSAT, Engineering, Quality, IT/OT, and Operations to design, execute, and evaluate rapid, ROI-driven proofs of concept.
  • Provide data-backed recommendations on whether technologies should be scaled, pivoted, or stopped based on business value.
  • Drive the end-to-end deployment lifecycle, including post-CAPEX industrialization plans.
  • Oversee cross-functional IT/OT system integration, including systems such as SCADA, MES, and digital twins.
  • Prepare site integration packages, including URS and CQV/CSV, and manage operational handover to local site operations.
