• Write and optimize queries, stored procedures and views in Microsoft SQL Server (T-SQL).
• Migrate existing reports and visualizations that consume Oracle (PL/SQL) data sources to MS-SQL-based data sources.
• Create MS-SQL views that interconnect MES data with other tools, applications and systems.
• Develop solutions with Power Apps and Power Automate where they add value to reporting and data workflows.
• Build and support web pages and tools hosted in Microsoft Azure for the global MES program.
• Gather reporting requirements from site teams in Puerto Rico, the US, Europe and Asia, and translate them into technical specifications.
• Prepare and execute computer system validation (CSV) deliverables for reports and tools: requirements, design specifications, test scripts (IQ/OQ/PQ) and traceability, following GAMP 5 and 21 CFR Part 11.
• Support MES implementations and migrations, such as PMX to PharmaSuite, by ensuring reporting continuity and data integrity across sites.
• Manage changes through change control and maintain documentation in line with client quality procedures.
• Coordinate across time zones with global MES teams, site IT, quality and operations.

• Experience writing and executing CSV documentation (URS, FS/DS, IQ/OQ/PQ, traceability matrix) in a GMP environment.
• Knowledge of GAMP 5, 21 CFR Part 11 and data integrity (ALCOA+) principles.
