About Technology@Lilly At Lilly, technology is not a support function. It is how a global medicine company operates, innovates, and delivers. Lilly in Hyderabad builds the capabilities that make this possible, cloud platforms, AI systems, and automation at enterprise scale, all in service of a purpose that makes this technology work genuinely distinctive, from advancing drug discovery to enabling connected clinical trials to keeping a global medicine company running at the standard patients deserve. About the Business Function The Global Manufacturing & Quality Labs - Lab Systems team delivers and sustains lab informatics platforms enabling GMP-compliant laboratory operations across Lilly's global manufacturing network. We build, implement, and support coordinated digital lab solutions that ensure data integrity, regulatory compliance, and efficient analytical and quality control processes. Job Role: QC Labs Ops & LIMS Process Expert Role Overview This role is for Technology@Lilly Manufacturing & Quality and provides deep pharmaceutical Quality Control process expertise, including the scientific processes performed on laboratory equipment, to support the design, harmonization, implementation, and deployment of LabVantage and connected laboratory solutions across the manufacturing network. The role bridges laboratory users and technology delivery teams by translating scientific and quality processes into standardized LIMS workflows, master data, functional requirements, test scenarios, and sustainable global ways of working. Key Responsibilities QC Process Expertise & Harmonization Serve as a subject-matter expert for end-to-end pharmaceutical QC laboratory processes and LIMS-enabled workflows. Lead process mapping, fit-gap assessment, harmonization, and standardization across sites; identify justified local or regulatory variations. Promote MQ Labs standards, reusable process patterns, and best practices while challenging unnecessary customization. Facilitate global workshops with QC scientists, laboratory SMEs, Quality, product owners, and implementation partners to drive process decisions and adoption. LabVantage Implementation & Functional Design Participate across LabVantage requirements, design, configuration review, demonstrations, testing, validation, deployment readiness, and post-deployment stabilization. Translate QC laboratory needs into clear functional requirements, process flows, user stories, acceptance criteria, and intended-use scenarios. Review proposed configurations and workflows for scientific fit, usability, compliance, standardization, and alignment with approved global processes. Support fit-gap decisions, functional issue resolution, defect triage, and business acceptance throughout the implementation lifecycle. Laboratory Processes & Master Data Provide process expertise across sample receipt and lifecycle, specifications, analytical methods, tests, parameters, limits, result entry and review, approval, and release-support workflows. Define and harmonize requirements for stability programs, sterility testing, environmental monitoring, exceptions, investigations, retesting or resampling, and related QC workflows. Apply practical understanding of laboratory equipment processes, analytical data generation, review controls, instrument outputs, and relevant ICH expectations. Partner on laboratory master-data design, governance, creation, migration, verification, and lifecycle maintenance to ensure accuracy, consistency, traceability, and reuse. Ensure master-data structures and workflows reflect approved laboratory processes and support efficient global deployment. Connected Laboratory Process Design Define business-process and data requirements for connections between LabVantage and laboratory systems. Provide process expertise for flows involving Empower/CDS, MODA-EM, ELN/LES, MES, SAP, and connected analytical instruments. Define business ownership, source and target data expectations, exception-handling scenarios, reconciliation needs, and user workflows for integrations. Identify opportunities to reduce manual transcription, simplify handoffs, and enable straight-through laboratory data flows. Partner with technical integration and platform teams while remaining focused on process, data, and functional requirements rather than infrastructure or driver engineering. Testing, Validation & Deployment Readiness Develop and review business-process test scenarios and acceptance criteria; support functional testing, UAT, validation, and defect triage. Partner with Quality and validation/CSQA teams to ensure intended use, requirements, testing, traceability, and process controls are appropriately addressed. Support site readiness, SOP and p
