- Support maintenance of validation pack, traceability matrices, and audit trails to meet GxP, ICH-GCP, and 21 CFR Part 11 requirements.
- Support internal/health-authority inspections by supplying system evidence and responding to findings.
- Support the development of SOPs, quick-reference guides, and deliver live/recorded training for new functionality or process changes.
You are:
- Bachelor’s degree in Life Sciences, Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field.
- 5 + years administering Veeva Vault (CTMS required; eTMF/EDC a plus) and 7 + years with clinical trial technologies overall.
- Veeva Vault Admin or Business-Admin certification(s) preferred.
- Strong command of Veeva Vault Study Governance & Vault CTMS configuration, security model, and object lifecycle management.
- Working knowledge of operational data standards (e.g., CDISC/SDTM), SQL or report-building tools (Power BI/Tableau), and integration patterns (APIs, flat-file, middleware).
- Demonstrated understanding of clinical trial phases, study-startup through close-out activities, and global regulations governing electronic systems (GxP, 21 CFR Part 11, GDPR).
- Analytical mindset, ability to translate business needs into system solutions, clear written/verbal communication, and aptitude for teaching adult learners.
- Familiarity with eTMF, Safety, Quality, or Regulatory Vaults and their cross-module data flows.
- Exposure to agile project management and validation methodologies (CSV, GAMP 5).
