Ashwini Ramesh
@ashwiniramesh
Biotechnology professional specializing in medical device production, QC, and regulatory consulting.
What I'm looking for
I am a biotechnology Ph.D. with extensive experience in production, quality control, regulatory compliance, and technical consulting for medical devices and diagnostics. I have led batch manufacturing, validated clinical chemistry and hematology products, and managed GMP/ISO 13485–aligned processes.
My work spans technical consulting, biotechnology consulting, operations management, and research roles where I coordinated investor relations, developed new medical-device products, implemented quality systems, and trained cross-functional teams. I have published peer‑reviewed research and presented at national and international conferences with multiple awards for presentations and posters.
I bring hands-on experience in GLP toxicology studies, assay validation (ELISA, PCR), molecular docking, and production-scale manufacturing of diagnostics and reagents. I seek to apply my technical leadership to roles that value regulatory excellence, product development, and scalable manufacturing.
