Ensure test methods meet compendial and product-specific requirements
Investigate test failures and assess impact on product quality and safety.

Microbial Identification and Trending:

Identify recovered organisms using Gram staining and advanced ID tools
Track trends in cleanroom isolates and product contamination data

Maintain equipment logs, service records, and calibration certificates
Ensure compliance with cGMPs and lab SOPs

SOP Management and Document Control:

Draft, revise, and review SOPs, protocols, and microbiological test methods
Ensure alignment with USP chapters, FDA guidance, and internal procedures
Support regular SOP review cycles and change control processes

Interdepartmental Collaboration:

Partner with QA and Production on cleanroom control and contamination risk management
Participate in cross-functional meetings, audits, and projects
Provide microbiological input for risk assessments and change controls

Audit and Regulatory Support:

Prepare and present microbiology data during internal and external audits
Support regulatory inspections with required documentation
Maintain an audit-ready state through continuous compliance

Capability to work in controlled environments (temperature and humidity controlled cleanrooms)
Occasional sitting, bending, crouching, or reaching as required by cleanroom tasks

Required Qualifications:

Bachelor’s Degree in Microbiology, Biology, or related field
Minimum 2 years of experience in microbiological testing in a regulated pharmaceutical, biotech, or compounding environment
