  • Support installation and startup of new equipment, including FATs (Factory Acceptance Tests) and SATs (Site Acceptance Tests)
  • Collaborate with the device assembly project team, including QA, Engineering, MSAT, and Production, to define qualification strategies aligned with device-specific regulatory requirement, driving technical execution from design through to operational readiness.
  • Contribute to the development of scalable, compliant qualification processes tailored to combination product manufacturing. Ensure readiness of device assembly lines for GMP-compliant production, supporting end-to-end qualification and validation
  • Provide expert input during deviation investigations, change controls, and process-related troubleshooting in qualification scope
  • Represent qualification topics during internal and external audits and regulatory inspections
  • Actively contribute to the development of the site's overall qualification strategy
