This role owns the validation project for the EBR implementation, ensuring that all site-specific deliverables meet GxP, data integrity, and electronic records/signatures requirements. The position requires a strong blend of technical validation expertise, manufacturing systems knowledge, and cross-functional collaboration to deliver a fully validated, compliant, and fit-for-purpose MES/EBR solution. Responsibilities * Lead the computer system validation workstream for the Tempo-MES electronic batch record system implementation and ensure all required site deliverables are completed on time and to the required quality. * Develop and maintain the Project Validation Plan, clearly defining the validation strategy, scope, lifecycle deliverables, responsibilities, review and approval roles, execution approach, acceptance criteria, phase entry and exit criteria, and closeout requirements. * Create a site-specific User Requirements Specification (URS) that documents site-specific business processes, workflows, operational requirements, user groups, roles, approval requirements, devices, interfaces, and site use cases. * Perform and maintain a comprehensive risk assessment covering system requirements and intended use, identifying GxP-critical requirements, risk scenarios, and required controls. * Author, route, execute, and close risk-based Installation/Operational Qualification (IOQ) protocols or scripts for requirements assigned to qualification testing, verifying environment-specific configuration in Tempo validation and production environments. * Author, route, execute, and close risk-based Performance Qualification (PQ) protocols or scripts to demonstrate that site business processes can be successfully executed using the configured system, workflows, and user roles. * Verify batch and procedure template configuration, including completion logic, required fields, data-entry requirements, calculations, checks, and applicable attachments, to ensure they support compliant and efficient operations. * Verify the Batch Template lifecycle from Draft through Effective status using configured user groups, including Batch Run creation through Send to Execution and Batch Run progression from Procedure Run Approval through Release. * Verify role-based approvals, permissions, segregation of duties, and electronic signatures using site-specific user groups to ensure compliance with electronic records and signatures regulations. * Initiate, investigate, assess, correct, route, and close validation deviations or discrepancies, obtaining all required approvals prior to retesting. * Develop and maintain end-to-end traceability from site and applicable global requirements through risk assessment, design and configuration controls, IOQ/PQ test coverage, deviations, and final results. * Prepare the Validation Summary Report documenting executed scope, approved deliverables, testing results, deviations and retests, traceability status, residual risks, open items, and the overall validation conclusion. * Coordinate with cross-functional stakeholders, including manufacturing, quality, IT, and system owners, to align requirements, testing activities, and approvals. * Provide subject matter expertise on CSV, MES/EBR validation, and data integrity principles, and support audits or inspections related to the system implementation.
