• Collaborate cross-functionally with client Engineering, Validation, Quality, and Project Management teams to advise on quality expectations and CQV documentation readiness.
• Utilize client systems including Veeva Vault, TrackWise, and Maximo to support document review, change control, and issue tracking activities.
• Support resolution of quality comments or issues related to validation documentation through advisory input and collaborative problem-solving

• Bachelor’s degree in Engineering, Life Sciences, or a related field.
• 8+ years of experience in validation or quality roles in the pharmaceutical or biotechnology industry.
• Strong knowledge of validation documentation lifecycle, cGMPs, and regulatory guidance related to equipment, facilities, and computerized systems.
• Experience reviewing CQV documentation in sterile or aseptic manufacturing environments.
• Familiarity with Quality Management Systems such as Veeva Vault, TrackWise, and Maximo.
• Excellent attention to detail, written communication skills, and ability to provide constructive quality input

Preferred Qualifications:
