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.

Additional Skills & Qualifications

Experience with aseptic formulation and filling equipment validation.
