Job description

Our Work Matters
At Kindeva we make products that save lives, ensuring better health and well-being for patients around the world.
As a Validation Engineer, you will play a critical role in ensuring our pharmaceutical manufacturing systems and processes meet rigorous regulatory and quality standards. You will lead and execute validation activities-including equipment, utilities, facilities, and process validations-to ensure our operations remain compliant and inspection-ready. Your expertise in cGMP, risk-based validation, and technical writing will directly impact the safety, efficacy, and consistency of the drug products we deliver. This is a highly visible, hands-on role ideal for a detail-oriented professional passionate about quality and continuous improvement in a dynamic, fast-paced environment
Responsibilities:
Validation Strategy & Execution
  • Develop, execute, and maintain validation protocols and reports (IQ, OQ, PQ) for equipment, utilities, and manufacturing processes.
  • Support commissioning and qualification (C&Q) activities for new equipment and facilities, ensuring compliance with FDA, EU, and global regulatory expectations.
  • Author and review validation lifecycle documentation, including plans, protocols, deviations, and final reports.
  • Partner with Engineering, Manufacturing, Quality, and Regulatory Affairs to ensure effective cross-functional validation planning and execution.
  • Perform periodic reviews and revalidation activities in accordance with lifecycle requirements.

Compliance & Risk Management
  • Lead risk assessments (FMEA, gap assessments) to determine validation strategy and appropriate testing requirements.
  • Provide validation input during change control, deviation investigations, and CAPA execution.
  • Ensure data integrity and good documentation practices in all validation records.
  • Act as subject matter expert (SME) during internal and external audits and inspections.

Continuous Improvement
  • Evaluate validation program effectiveness and recommend process improvements to enhance compliance, efficiency, and scalability.
  • Stay current with industry best practices and evolving regulatory guidance to ensure validation activities remain aligned with expectations.

Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree in engineering, life sciences, or a related technical field.
  • 3 or more years of validation experience; or 1 years with a Master's degree
    in a regulated pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device environment.
  • Demonstrated knowledge of FDA, EU, and ICH regulatory requirements including 21 CFR Part 11 and Annex 15.
  • Experience in developing and executing validation documentation (IQ/OQ/PQ, protocols, reports).
  • Strong organizational, communication, and technical writing skills.
  • Ability to collaborate cross-functionally and manage multiple priorities in a deadline-driven environment.

Preferred Qualifications:
  • Familiarity with validation of automated systems and computerized system validation (CSV).
  • Experience with nasal or respiratory drug delivery systems, aseptic manufacturing, or cleanroom validation.
  • Working knowledge of validation tools and systems (e.g., TrackWise, ValGenesis, Veeva).
  • Lean Six Sigma or other continuous improvement training/certifications.
