Work History
Process Engineer Associate - Process Solutions
Regeneron
Limerick, Ireland
01.2022 - 05.2023
- Focused on process improvement, optimization, and validation.
- Led multiple process-impacting projects involving change controls, risk assessments, process studies, validation, and reports.
- Developed mechanistic model of UFDF unit operation to quantify product loss. Utilized tool to minimize product build up, resulting in a 20% reduction in product loss and increased overall yield.
- Proposed new buffer preparation system to cut down on process waste and reduce overall cost of buffer use by 40%.
- Maintained compliance with GMP regulations by executing Change Controls for updating manufacturing records and process reports.
- Developed process validation procedures for qualifying single-use bags in manufacturing samples.
- Managed Change Control, conducting three process validation runs to establish new hold times for chromatography vessels.
- Regularly used statistical analysis to understand process trends and possible production shifts in yield or critical process parameters.
- Successfully completed a large filter assessment project to optimize productivity and reduce costs by determining filters to be removed or resized.
- Conducted bi-weekly clinics showcasing the efficient operation of real-time data interface software.
Process Engineer Associate - Computational Science
Regeneron
Limerick, Ireland
09.2019 - 01.2022
- Worked with predictive software such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD), MATLAB, and DynoChem.
- Conducted process troubleshooting projects, identifying root causes of investigations.
- Authored technical documents demonstrating the application of predictive software in identifying root causes of NOEs, EOEs, and DNFs.
- Utilized predictive software as a process validation tool, demonstrating homogeneity was achieved in mixing studies.
- Created 3D drawings of process vessels with SpaceClaim builder.
- Led two major CFD projects to enhance gas transfer by redesigning sparger and updating UFDF mixing and product recovery, resulting in a 10% yield increase.
- Conducted process area studies comparing similar unit operations across sites to identify key performance differences.
- Developed MATLAB scripts that accurately predicted reaction rates and gas stripping from fluids.
- Introduced and trained colleagues and new hires on the usage of new 3D drawing software through recorded instructional videos.
Intern
Flow Technology
Charleville, Ireland
01.2018 - 08.2018
- Assisted engineers in handover documentation and skid development for client companies.
- Ensured compliance with regulatory requirements by completing FAT for clients.
- Utilized CAD to develop process pipework drawings.
- Spend time with fitters to help ensure design was completed correctly and organized weld logs.
- Led trolley skid production and ensured effective communication with customers to understand and develop required design.
