• Maintain clear, defensible investigation documentation suitable for internal review and regulatory inspection.

Regulatory Inspection Support

• Participate in FDA and state board of pharmacy inspections as the site's technical subject matter expert, providing front-room or back-room support as needed.

• Respond to inspector questions and provide documentation on process verification, cleaning validation, technology transfer, and troubleshooting history for the site, and support technical responses to observations tied to process, cleaning, or equipment performance.

Team Leadership
