The position is fully on-site and offers the opportunity to contribute directly to the manufacture of therapies that improve patient lives, while gaining career-defining experience in a complex, high-performing pharmaceutical environment.

Responsibilities

Lead the validation effort for assigned projects, serving as the primary owner of validation activities from initial requirements through decommissioning.
Develop, revise, and maintain validation documentation in accordance with established procedures, including validation plans and reports, specifications, risk assessments, traceability matrices, and decommissioning plans and reports.
Author, execute, and generate reports for Design Review/Qualification, Installation Qualification (IQ), Operational Qualification (OQ), Performance Qualification (PQ), and Process Validation activities, as required for each project.

Track all validation documentation associated with assigned projects, ensuring timely completion, accuracy, and proper approvals.
Provide routine project status updates, including progress, risks, and issues, and escalate concerns to project managers when necessary.
Identify, investigate, and document deviations or engineering changes encountered during validation activities, ensuring appropriate follow-up and resolution.
Initiate, author, and support Change Controls, including assessing validation impact for proposed changes and ensuring alignment with quality and regulatory expectations.
Utilize approved electronic systems, such as TIMS (HP ALM) and VeeVa (QualityDocs, VaultQuality), to create, revise, route, and approve validation and change control records.
Ensure all validation deliverables comply with applicable Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements, FDA regulations, EU Annex 15 guidance, and internal procedures.
Collaborate closely with engineers, validation specialists, quality professionals, and manufacturing teams to support cross-functional project execution and continuous improvement.
Contribute to the upgrade of an existing manufacturing facility by supporting validation activities for equipment, utilities, and processes within the established operation.

Strong organizational skills to track multiple validation deliverables and provide clear project status updates.
Effective communication skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams and present validation status, risks, and recommendations.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Experience with aseptic formulation and filling equipment validation.
Background in validation of vision inspection systems used in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
