• Support execution of or lead small to moderately sized project tasks per established timeline, including any activities associated with production of Pilot scale batches and Clinical Supplies operations.
• Work with project teams to manage and execute batch requests in the pilot plant
• Responsible for Clinical Supplies Project Execution and Coordination including repacking and labeling operations for clinical supplies
• Support the execution of the planned experimental design (i.e., sample collection, in-process testing, sample management, etc.).
• Support with report preparation by compiling and analyzing and summarizing data using appropriate analysis techniques.
• Support change control deliverables/documentation, investigations, and corrective/preventative actions.
• Support or lead conducting investigations related to product out of specification or process deviation, stability deviation, consumer complaints, and other investigations as applicable.
• Conduct laboratory experimentation as needed related to investigations and root cause analysis.
• Support or lead in conducting troubleshooting of scale-up issues, root cause analysis, and remediation for technical-related issues. Corrective Action and Preventative Action (CAPA) implementation and follow up to ensure CAPA effectiveness to address investigation and the root causes related to process deviation, stability, out of specification, out of trend, out of expectation, complaints, and others as applicable.
