Validation Engineer
AbCellera
Job Description
We are looking for a Compliance/Validation Engineer to join the Engineering Asset Management team and support execution of CQV (Commissioning, Qualification, Validation) and engineering compliance activities, in alignment with regulatory expectations and Good Manufacturing Practices. How You Might Spend Your Days Authoring and reviewing CQV protocols, SOPs, and technical documentation, ensuring everything meets rigorous GMP standards and holds up under scrutiny. Leading investigations into deviations and non-conformances, driving CAPA implementation that gets to the root cause and keeps issues from coming back.
Being a trusted voice for the engineering team during internal and external audits. Coordinating and executing engineering and quality change controls, keeping projects moving without compromising compliance. Drafting and executing CQV deliverables, from User Requirement Specifications to protocols, summary reports, and periodic reviews, on an electronic VLMS.
Managing the full lifecycle of engineering drawings and documents through e-systems, bringing structure and precision to everything you touch. Performing periodic reviews of all qualified systems at our GMP manufacturing facility to ensure ongoing compliance and performance. Shaping how the team measures success by supporting the development and tracking of departmental KPIs.
We’d Love to Hear From You If You hold a Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Chemistry, or a related life science field, and have spent 3+ years putting that knowledge to work in a similar role. You’re comfortable navigating electronic VLMS and QMS platforms, and know how to get the most out of them in a fast-paced GMP environment. You’re the person who catches what others miss; detail‑oriented by nature, with documentation and organizational skills that others rely on.
You bring a proactive, can‑do attitude to problem‑solving; when an issue arises, you’re already thinking about the solution. You thrive in a collaborative team setting and know how to communicate clearly across functions. You are familiar with AutoCAD or Revit (this is a bonus!).
You’re a natural at juggling competing priorities; managing multiple tasks without letting anything slip through the cracks. What We Offer AbCellera’s hiring range for this role is CAD $73,000 – $87,000 annually, commensurate with your education and job‑related knowledge, skills, and experience. In addition to base salary, we offer equity, annual bonus dependent on team and company performance, and a 6% (non‑match) RRSP contribution.
You will have a CAD $1,500 annual Active Lifestyle Allowance, annual vacation, professional development opportunities, and comprehensive health benefits. Scientific and technical mentorship is a priority. And you’ll find a strong sense of community and connections across AbCellera through our work, clubs, and socials. #J-18808-Ljbffr
