• Prepare timely, cGMP-compliant investigation reports, support audit readiness, and coach teams on disciplined problem solving and good documentation.

• Strong working knowledge of cGMP, data integrity, deviation management, root cause analysis, risk assessment, and CAPA methods.
• Familiarity with automated production equipment, vision/inspection systems, packaging materials, and manufacturing data; hands-on device/syringe/vial experience is a strong advantage.
• Analytical and structured thinker who turns complex technical data into clear, evidence-based conclusions and manages multiple investigations to deadline.
