Omar Andrés González Gallegos
@omarandrsgonzlezgall
I lead regional quality systems, compliance, audits, and data-driven optimization.
What I'm looking for
At PerkinElmer, I led LATAM quality assurance work across Mexico, Argentina, and Chile, successfully defending more than 14 ISO 9001:2015 audits with 100% compliance and zero major non-conformances.
I've modernized QMS and document-control workflows through LMS, Docebo, OCARNOS, SAP, and SharePoint, while building Power BI dashboards that support executive decisions, project tracking, and continuous audit readiness. I also coordinated compliance and systems training for more than 400 professionals across the Americas and Europe.
My background spans quality assurance, regulatory affairs, analytical control, and laboratory leadership at Signa, Abbott Laboratories, Novartis, and Tecnofarma. I've led CAPA, deviation, OOS/OOE, and aberrant-result investigations, analytical method transfers, validation protocols, and lean laboratory initiatives.
I bring 19 years of international experience in regulated environments, combining practical quality systems leadership with data-driven reporting and cross-functional team guidance in Spanish, English, and basic German.
