• Prepare management updates, investigation summaries, and provide support for regulatory submissions as required.

Technical Competencies

• Strong technical understanding of GMP, quality systems, and external manufacturing quality management.
• Hands-on experience with QMS processes including deviation management, CAPA, change control, and batch record review.
• Knowledge of process, cleaning, and analytical validation activities.
• Strong data integrity and documentation practices aligned with ALCOA+ principles.
