  • Participate in configuration review sessions to identify validation impacts and testing readiness needs.
  • Partner with technical and integration teams to ensure PLM configuration aligns with system architecture, data models, and integration requirements.
User Acceptance Testing
  • Develop functional test scripts to support User Acceptance Testing and system validation cycles.
  • Support UAT planning, readiness activities, execution, and evidence collection.
  • Assist business testers with test execution, issue resolution, defect logging, and documentation.
  • Track defects, retesting, and resolution activities through closure.
  • Validate that system functionality meets defined requirements and supports intended use.
  • Ensure test documentation is complete, accurate, and aligned with validation and quality expectations.
Computer System Validation / Computer Software Assurance
  • Author and maintain validation documentation in support of PLM implementation and system validation.
  • Create and support validation deliverables, including:
    • User Requirements Specification
    • Functional Specifications and/or Design Specifications
    • Risk assessments aligned with CSV and CSA principles
    • Requirements Traceability Matrix
    • IQ, OQ, and PQ test scripts

  • Ensure validation deliverables comply with internal Quality Management System requirements, GxP expectations, and applicable regulatory requirements.
  • Support validation strategy, testing execution, documentation review, and audit readiness activities.
PLM Implementation and Integration Support
  • Work closely with IT, Quality, Validation, and project teams to support a smooth and compliant PLM implementation.
  • Support validation of PLM integrations, workflows, permissions, configuration changes, and data migration activities.
  • Partner with Quality and Validation teams to address findings, resolve gaps, and support audit readiness.
  • Develop and maintain system documentation, including process maps, work instructions, job aids, and supporting user documentation.
  • Provide functional input to support training materials and user guides in partnership with the Training Lead.
  • Support go-live readiness by ensuring requirements, testing, validation, documentation, and user readiness activities are completed within project timelines.
Required Qualifications

  • 3+ years of experience in Computerized System Validation and/or Computer Software Assurance.
  • Strong experience authoring validation documentation in a regulated environment.
  • Hands-on CSV/CSA execution experience.
  • Experience authoring test scripts, protocols, traceability documentation, and validation summary documentation.
  • Experience translating business and system requirements into testable validation deliverables.
  • Experience with GxP, FDA-regulated systems, and regulated system implementation projects.
  • Experience working in cGMP, cGDP, or 21 CFR Part 11 regulated environments preferred.
  • Experience supporting QMS, PLM, document management, MES, or other regulated enterprise systems.
Preferred Qualifications
  • Prior experience supporting PLM software implementation and validation.
  • Knowledge of PLM systems such as Agile, MasterControl, or similar platforms.
  • Experience supporting data migration, records migration, or system integration validation.
  • Experience working with vendors during software implementation projects.
  • Experience with UAT planning, testing tools, defect management, and evidence collection.
