What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can strengthen process control and quality systems (GMP/HACCP/ISO) using data analysis and SPC, while contributing to practical lab and production improvements in a team that values documentation and continuous learning.

I’m a Biotechnology Engineering professional specializing in Pharmaceutical Sciences, with hands-on experience across process optimization, laboratory quality work, and early clinical research support. My work is centered on strengthening process control through documented procedures, critical parameter monitoring, and reliable analysis.

In my recent internships, I optimized betaine synthesis processes and improved production efficiency by tightening process control and critical parameters. I also supported quality control activities by optimizing ELISA assays, verifying results against laboratory standards, and contributing to technical documentation and procedure compliance.

Across GMP and ISO environments, I prepared and standardized technical procedures, supported auditing under ISO 9001:2015, and ensured compliance with HACCP, GMP, and ISO 9001:2015 requirements. I’m trained to apply Statistical Process Control using Minitab, analyze experimental outcomes, and help teams validate and improve fermentation and production processes.
