About the Role:

We are looking for a motivated GxP Digital Quality professional (8-10 years) to join our Hyderabad, India team as Project Support — Digital Quality. In this role, you will contribute to the execution and maintenance of Digital Quality standards, supporting compliance with global regulatory requirements and Opella's internal procedures.

You will work as part of a cross-functional team — learning from experienced colleagues, contributing to validation activities, and helping ensure that digital solutions are compliant, validated, and audit-ready.

This role is for someone who takes ownership of their tasks, is eager to grow, and thrives in a collaborative environment where quality is everyone's responsibility.

What You Will Do

📋 1. Quality Documentation Support

• Contribute to lifecycle management: Help manage controlled documents across areas including CSV/CSA, Data Integrity (ALCOA+), Cloud/SaaS governance, and Electronic Records/Signatures.

• Keep records current: Support Periodic Reviews and system lifecycle documentation in alignment with corporate and regulatory requirements.

✅ 2. Validation Support & Risk Awareness

• Perform validation activities: Support the planning and execution of CSV activities for projects and operations, contributing to fit-for-purpose documentation delivered at pace.

• Contribute to quality oversight: Assist in Computer System Validation (CSV) activities, including preparation and review of quality notifications under guidance.

• Collaborate with project teams: Work alongside engineering, IT, and operations to support system design, testing, and release activities.

• Apply risk-based thinking: Learn and apply risk-based approaches to validation decisions, documenting rationale clearly for team review.

• Manage validation deliverables: Assist in preparing and reviewing documents such as URS, Functional Specs, UAT reports, Validation Summaries, and Authorization for Use (AFU) — under the guidance of senior team members.

• Handle deviation and change management: Assist in tracking validation-related deviations/CAPAs and change controls for validation impact.

• Contribute to continuous improvement: Identify and flag inefficiencies in validation processes, templates, and tools — and bring ideas to fix what slows things down.

🤝 3. Cross-Functional Collaboration & Learning

• Partner with IT/Digital and operational teams: Provide GxP support during system modernization projects, teaming up for Opella's success.

• Engage with SMEs: Collaborate with Cybersecurity, Data Privacy, and Internal Audit colleagues to understand and apply unified compliance requirements.

• Support training delivery: Assist in developing and delivering training materials on Digital/GxP policies, Data Integrity, and Validation best practices — helping build a strong quality culture.

🔍 4. Audit & Inspection Support

• Perform GxP Periodic Review cycles: Support scheduling, documentation, evidence collection, and CAPA tracking under senior oversight.

• Maintain validated state: Contribute to Change, Incident, and Problem Management activities to sustain the validated state of regulated systems.

• Support third-party management: Assist in maintaining vendor inventories, assessments, and quality agreement documentation.

• Contribute to audit readiness: Help prepare evidence packages and support stakeholder coordination for audits and inspections.

• Learn from inspections: Participate in Health Authority inspection preparation (FDA, EMA, MHRA, etc.) as a supporting team member, building toward SME capability over time.

• Support CAPA activities: Assist in CAPA development and effectiveness checks for observations related to digital quality governance.
