Category Quality Control  
Description

The QC Analyst I position is an entry level analyst position. The QC Analyst I is required to complete the most comprehensive in-house training program for all laboratory activities. Documented proficiency is required before the QC Analyst I can perform tasks independently. Because of the level of experience required for this position, the scope of work is generally limited to routine testing explicitly following written test protocols, however, upon the discretion of QC supervisory staff the QC Analyst I may be called upon to execute non-routine testing to support method validation, and method transfer. In addition, the QC Analyst I may be called upon to write or revise SOPs, analytical procedures, and analysis reports, or qualify as trainers on specific procedures.

The QC Analyst II must be proficient at basic analytical techniques such as pipetting, weighing, drying, filtering, etc.; and must have industry experience (preferably in an FDA regulated industry) with one or more techniques in automated instrumental analysis (HPLC, GC, dissolution) or wet chemical analysis (compendial methods). The QC Analyst II requires in-house training for most laboratory activities, but consideration is given to individual training needs based on prior experience; however documented proficiency is required for the execution of all activities. Because of the level of experience, and training associated with this position, a QC Analyst II may be assigned the responsibility of specialized compliance functions within the laboratory, such as controlled substance management, reference standard inventory control, cleaning validation swab procedures, and method validation and transfer activities. The QC Analyst II will be required to write or revise SOPs, analytical procedures, and analysis reports, at the discretion of quality control supervisory staff.

The QC Analyst III position is a highly experienced analyst position within the QC laboratory. The QC Analyst III requires the least comprehensive in-house training curriculum of any analyst position in the laboratory by virtue of prior experience, although documented proficiency is required for the execution of all activities. Because of the level of experience associated with this position, a QC Analyst III may be assigned the responsibility of specialized compliance functions within the laboratory, such as controlled substance management, equipment IQ, OQ, PQ activities, reference standard inventory control, cleaning validation swab procedures, and method validation and transfer activities. The QC Analyst III will be required to write or revise SOPs, analytical procedures, analysis reports, validation documents, etc. at the discretion of quality control supervisory staff.
