• Quality Control Raw Material Technician

  • Aug 2009 - Jan 2012

  I performed analysis on raw materials and entered results according to GMP guidelines which ensured materials met required specifications. I contributed product development which included testing and analysis for various project related materials. Materials were then sent to Research & development for further analysis. I purchase lab equipment and chemicals for raw material testing, by following inventory guidelines which ensured production requirements were met. I followed current SOP’s and STM’s accurately to complete testing and release of raw materials while adhering to strict deadlines. I wrote qualification reports and analytical specifications for incoming materials. These reports were used to establish secondary supplier contracts to ensure adequate supply of materials. I initiated change controls to update SOP’s & STM’s to implement revisions as required by regulated bodies or as by supplier request which ensured up to date testing requirements. I initiated non-conformance and corrective action reports when required, implemented changes as necessary to reduce future errors. Show less
