o Vendor & Partner Quality Oversight: Lead PV/Quality Agreement development, conduct vendor due diligence, and maintain ongoing oversight of partner performance and GDP compliance.

o Quality Systems, SOPs & Continuous Improvement: Develop and maintain PV/QA SOPs, deliver compliance training, and drive continuous improvement of quality processes and tracking systems.

4. Pipeline & Launch Readiness (New Products)
