Duties, Accomplishments and Related Skills:
Executes a comprehensive automated equipment management program, ensuring standard protocols are adhered to for the assessment, maintenance, and repair of an automated pharmacy fulfillment system (APFS) and supporting infrastructure.
Maintains complex, diverse facility and automated utility/system operations to include periodic inspection, preventive maintenance, and repair.
Improvises troubleshooting practices and interprets electronic, electrical, and mechanical drawings, specifications, and schematics of custom systems.
Practical application and understanding of underlying computer, engineering, and electronics theory.
Practical use of analog and digital electronics, mechanics, pneumatics, electromechanical devices, hydraulics, optics, physics, and computer science.
Knowledge of the principles and techniques in operation of supported equipment and limitations of applicable physical and network security issues to improvise troubleshooting practices.
Interpret electronic, electrical, and mechanical drawings, specifications, and schematics of custom systems solving complex issues.
Programming and engineering system changes to human machine interface (HMI)/user interface, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), sensors, input/output devices, transformers, three-phase primary/secondary industrial power distribution systems, surge protection devices, three-phase motor starters/associated circuits, pneumatic actuators, conveyors, automated processes, and computer system.
Working knowledge of computers and networking, including standard network hardware, software, standard topologies, media types, and Internet protocols (e.g., Transmission Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)) and related characteristics, capabilities, installation, and configuration of supported equipment and their associated networks.
Ability and skill to communicate and collaborate with clinical and administrative personnel and serve as a liaison between them interpreting technical literature and brief pertinent information.
Monitors quality assurance indicators related to forecasting of premature equipment failure rates and mean time between equipment failures (MTBF) as they relate to enhancing patient safety, and the prevention or control of unexpected catastrophic system failures, identifying and implementing protocols to ensure timely recovery of critical equipment and systems.
Serves as a subject-matter authority for automated pharmacy fulfillment system components and ensures that application training is provided to users and support staff.
Maintains an equipment inventory and maintenance database used to supply current maintenance information on request. Effectively provides organizational support for automation and/or facility related issues or projects crossing program lines of authority which may be of a high priority nature.
Effectively develops plans of action for accomplishing high-priority projects. Prepares correspondence, technical reports, estimates, fact sheets, status reports, and schedules as required to ensure assigned projects are completed on time and within established budgets.
Experienced judgment in extending traditional techniques or developing new ones in order to solve complex problems. In many cases, assignments deal with the inapplicability of established design criteria and technical precedents to project objectives thus requiring sound design judgment to reach the correct solution, meeting major objectives and timelines without compromising design and engineering principles.
Participate with production supervisors and quality assurance staff on projects related to improving efficiency, safety, or regulatory compliance; participate in addressing unresolved issues, problem solving, or contract enforcement; respond to requests for support or assistance; solve problems; provide customers with consistent information; resolve critical production, system, and network issues; confer with vendors and contractors to solicit advice in resolving maintenance, design, and/or installation problems; give or receive information; coordinate work efforts; furnish technical advice; and review drawings, installation designs, or specifications and correct them, as necessary.
