expertise will be essential in ensuring our automated processes are
compliant with industry standards (e.g., FDA 21 CFR Part 11, EU Annex

setting up test equipment, witnessing tests, documenting results, and
troubleshooting minor issues.

-Identify, document, and assist in the investigation of deviations and
non-conformances encountered during testing.

-Generate summary reports to formally document the outcome of validation
activities.

Required Qualifications and Skills:
-Proven experience (3+ years) in a validation role within a GxP
regulated industry (Pharma, Bio-Pharma, Medical Device, etc.).

-Must have hands-on experience with Siemens PCS 7 architecture and
components (OS, BATCH, Historian etc.).

-Demonstrable experience in drafting and authoring validation documents
(IQ/OQ/PQ protocols) specifically for process control systems.

-Strong understanding of relevant regulatory standards: FDA 21 CFR Part
11, EU Annex 11, and GAMP 5 guidelines.

-Excellent technical writing and communication skills, with a keen eye
for detail and accuracy.

-Ability to work independently and manage multiple priorities in a
fast-paced project environment.
