I’m looking for opportunities where I can mix the hands-on work with process troubleshooting/optimization in combination of managing of a product/project from the decision-making level regarding capital projects, project direction, etc. I have worked on all facets in the lifecycle of a process/product from the R&D side in its development and optimization coming into a fully validated manufacturing process and then supporting & troubleshooting from the manufacturing side ensuring consistency & quality of the validated product complying with cGMP. This exposure & experience makes me more aware, knowledgeable and able to think on a broader scale, thinking always outside of the box enabling me to creatively & I believe more effectively deal and troubleshoot issues.
