Environmental Monitoring-Quality Control Microbiology (medical device)
X Performed environmental monitoring data trend analysis, OOS investigations, de
termined root-causes, and implemented corrective and preventative actions where
appropriate.
X Led and executed environmental monitoring and process validation activities fo
r regulated medical device facilities, including HVAC, clean steam, and high pur
ity water system validations, for a 188,000 square foot facility containing ISO
Class 5, 7,8 (A, C, D) manufacturing areas.
X Coordinated and documented the shutdown and approved or re-evaluated the start
up of HVAC and high purity water systems.
X Designed all validation studies for, and led the execution of procedures relat
ed to the consolidation of two quality control microbiology laboratories into on
e location to reduce headcount and cost of testing. (Including but not limited t
o sample/specimen transport, water temperature hold time, and method transfers).
X Coordinated and executed all sterile and non-sterile gowning verification trai
ning and testing for three ISO Classes 5, 7, (A, C, D) regulated facilities.
X Designed classroom training, self study curriculum, and bi-annual competency t
raining for the execution of quality control laboratory testing and environmenta
l monitoring procedures.
X Validated USP harmonized microbiological test methods including bioburden test
ing and microbial enumeration, to support product release
X Validated the following instruments and software programs to replace in-use in
struments. The addition of these instruments drastically reduced turn-around ti
me and overall use cost.
