RESPONSIBILITIES

Participate in project, validation, design, testing, and readiness meetings, providing validation input throughout the project lifecycle.
Review approved requirements, business rules, system design, and configuration information to define validation strategy, qualification scope, and test coverage.
Develop and revise validation lifecycle documentation, including the Validation Master Plan, User Requirements Specification, Application System Design Specification, Infrastructure System Design Specification, Data Risk Assessment, and Data Integrity Assessment.
Apply risk-based validation and Computer Software Assurance principles so that testing and documentation are proportionate to system criticality, intended use, and GxP impact.
Develop and maintain the Requirements Traceability Matrix, linking approved requirements to design, configuration, qualification testing, and execution results.
Develop Functional Qualification and Configuration Qualification protocols and reproducible test scripts with objective acceptance criteria.
Develop test coverage for Stability Management, Reagent and Standard Inventory, user roles and security, audit trails, electronic records and signatures, reporting, and applicable LIMS–Oracle interface functionality.
Define test prerequisites, test data, test accounts, and environment-readiness requirements in coordination with configuration, integration, and client resources.

Experience developing or revising GMP procedures (SOPs) for computerized systems.
Experience working within change control and deviation management processes.

Preferred

Direct hands-on LabWare LIMS experience (configuration, administration, or validation), including LabWare validation on implementation, expansion, or upgrade projects.
Experience validating or administering LIMS Stability Management functionality (study planning, pull scheduling, chamber management, stability evaluation, and trending).
Experience with LIMS Reagent and Standard Inventory functionality (receipt, preparation, standard qualification, expiration management, and usage traceability).
Experience validating LIMS–ERP integrations (e.g., Oracle, SAP QM), including API-based interfaces.
Experience performing Data Risk Assessments and Data Integrity Assessments.
LIMS administration experience, including user access management, audit trail review, and periodic user access reviews.
Experience with LIMS data migration verification, system upgrades, or laboratory instrument/CDS integrations (e.g., Empower, SDMS).
