Author and revise SOPs, technical protocols, and reports while identifying opportunities to improve laboratory workflows, analytical reliability, and stability program execution. Uphold GMP compliance and data integrity: Execute laboratory and stability activities in accordance with applicable GxP regulations, internal policies, SOPs, and work instructions. Apply Good Documentation Practices and data integrity principles to ensure analytical results, electronic records, and supporting documentation are accurate, complete, traceable, and readily available for regulatory audits and inspections. Explore digital innovation in analytical quality control: Contribute to opportunities to enhance stability data management, analytical trending, scientific knowledge sharing, and laboratory efficiency through digital tools, advanced analytics, and appropriately approved Generative AI-enabled technologies, while maintaining strict GxP compliance and data integrity requirements. Maintain training and technical competency: Complete all assigned training within defined timelines, including required requalification activities. Continuously strengthen technical knowledge of analytical methods, laboratory systems, regulatory expectations, and evolving scientific practices. Foster collaboration and scientific excellence: Work collaboratively across Quality Control, Manufacturing, Quality Assurance, Regulatory Affairs, and external testing partners to support effective analytical testing and stability program delivery. Promote a positive, inclusive culture that values scientific curiosity, innovation, accountability, and continuous improvement. Contribute to special projects and broader QC priorities: Support additional scientific, analytical, quality, or stability-related projects as assigned, bringing technical expertise, flexibility, and a proactive approach to delivering results.
