Experienced quality engineer specializing in automation for biotech.
What I'm looking for
I am an experienced Quality Engineer with 8+ years in the biotechnology sector focused on automation services, GMP operations, and eQMS implementation. I have led automation platform integration, maintained robotic systems (Agilent, Echo), authored and revised SOPs/WIs, owned CAPA/NCR/deviation processes, and supported room and line releases to improve system reliability and operational productivity.
I collaborate cross-functionally to deliver validation, training, and process improvements—building GMP warehouses, developing training modules in Adobe Captivate, implementing eQMS validation scripts, and assisting ISO certification efforts. I am detail-oriented, motivated, and seeking a role at a growth-minded company to expand my impact in automation and quality systems.
