Description

Do you have experience in Quality Assurances with NCs and CAPA? Are you available for a contract opportunity imminently? If this sounds like you and you are driven by purpose, join the SOPHiA GENETICS Quality Team as a Quality Associate, and enable us to make a positive impact on the outcomes for cancer and rare disease patients worldwide.

This is a contract opportunity until 31/05/2027.  This is a hybrid role, and you can expect to be in our office in Rolle at least 3 days per week.

Our Mission

We believe there is a smarter, more data-driven way to make decisions in healthcare and our cloud-native AI powered SOPHiA DDM Platform makes that vision a reality on a daily basis. You will have direct input to our mission to democratize data-driven medicine for the ultimate benefit of cancer and rare disease patients across the globe.

Your Mission

As part of our Quality team, this role supports the team during periods of absence and an increased workload, taking ownership of Non-Conformity (NC) management, Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPA), and the Change Control Process (CCP).

The value you bring:

• Conduct ongoing reviews of open and historical NCs to close gaps and ensure we're audit-ready ahead of our next inspection
• Manage CAPAs end-to-end — from root cause analysis through implementation and effectiveness verification
• Support Change Control Process (CCP) activities, ensuring changes are properly assessed, documented, and approved before implementation
• Partner with cross-functional teams — Supply Chain, Procurement, Data Science, and IT — to gather evidence, document conformity, and close out actions on time
• Identify emerging non-conformities proactively, assessing risk and recommending appropriate remediation
• Maintain accurate, audit-ready records in Veeva and Jira throughout quality processes

Requirements

To be best set for success, we see you bringing:

•  Working knowledge of CAPA, NC, CCP and other quality documentation processes
• Direct experience within a Quality Control / Quality Assurance function essential, ideally within a similar scientific, medical or pharmaceutical environment
• Experience with ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 standards
• Systems experience with ticketing and document management tools essential, ideally Veeva & JIRA
• You'll bring a commercially focused and business enabling mindset, providing guidance on conformity rather than policing against rule
• As an international organization, English is our primary business language, and you will need to be fluent (both written and spoken) to be suitable
• You will be joining an organisation with the patient at the heart of every decision and action, driven by purpose as we pursue exponential growth.

As part of your recruitment journey, you should expect to meet English-only speakers. For best chances of success, you should include your CV in English. Unfortunately, non-English CVs have a high likelihood of being rejected at application stage.
