Our client, a leading biotechnology and advanced manufacturing organization, is seeking a hands‑on Calibration Technician / Metrology Technician to support critical GMP manufacturing operations. This is a field‑based role within a regulated production environment and is not primarily a documentation or office‑based position.

The successful candidate will spend the majority of their time supporting manufacturing operations through hands‑on calibration, troubleshooting, instrumentation maintenance, and metrology activities. While some calibration documentation and certificate review activities are required, the primary focus is execution on the manufacturing floor.

• Perform hands‑on calibration, adjustment, and maintenance of instrumentation and process equipment throughout GMP manufacturing areas.
• Troubleshoot instrumentation, control devices, sensors, transmitters, and related manufacturing equipment.
• Work within classified cleanroom and GMP production environments while following gowning and contamination‑control procedures.
• Review calibration records and certificates for completeness, accuracy, and compliance with site requirements.
• Collaborate closely with Metrology, Maintenance, Engineering, Manufacturing, and Quality teams to resolve equipment and calibration issues.
• Support audit readiness by maintaining accurate and compliant calibration documentation.
• Participate in corrective action, deviation, and continuous improvement activities as required.
• Safely handle and move equipment and tools weighing up to 50 pounds.

• 5+ years of hands‑on calibration, metrology, instrumentation, or maintenance experience within a GMP, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, or similarly regulated environment.
• Strong understanding of instrumentation principles, calibration techniques, and troubleshooting methodologies.
• Experience working directly in manufacturing or production environments.
• Ability to work a fixed overnight shift schedule.
• Prior experience working in cleanroom or controlled manufacturing environments.
• Ability to lift and move equipment weighing up to 50 pounds.

• Pharmaceutical, biotechnology, biologics, sterile manufacturing, or GMP manufacturing experience.
• Familiarity with calibration management systems and electronic documentation systems.
• Experience supporting highly automated production environments.
• Knowledge of GMP documentation practices, data integrity requirements, and regulatory expectations.
• Previous experience supporting manufacturing operations within a large‑scale commercial production facility.

The ideal candidate is a hands‑on calibration professional who enjoys working directly on manufacturing equipment, troubleshooting issues in real time, and supporting production operations in a fast‑paced GMP environment. This role is best suited for someone who prefers working on the floor with equipment rather than in a documentation‑heavy office setting.
