What You’ll Do
The QA Batch Record Reviewer is responsible for ensuring that manufacturing and packaging documentation is complete, accurate, and compliant with cGMP standards, FDA data integrity expectations, and company procedures. This role provides critical Quality Assurance oversight of documentation used to support product release by verifying that production and packaging activities were properly executed, reviewed, and recorded.
In addition to batch record review, this position will also support GMP compliance video review as an added quality oversight activity.

The role requires strong attention to detail, sound judgment, and the ability to objectively review both written records and process activity for compliance.
Key Responsibilities
- Review completed batch production and packaging records for accuracy, completeness, and compliance with cGMP, SOP, and company documentation requirements.

- Review recorded manufacturing and packaging process video to support GMP compliance oversight and confirm that activities were performed in accordance with approved procedures.
- Identify and document discrepancies, omissions, documentation errors, process concerns, or potential deviations observed during batch record review or video review.
- Escalate questionable or non-compliant observations to QA management, Operations, Packaging, Manufacturing, or other appropriate personnel for further review.
- Track and maintain batch record review status within applicable quality systems, databases, logs, or tracking tools.
- Support investigations, deviations, CAPAs, and product release activities by providing accurate, traceable source documentation and video review observations as required.
- Ensure records and review activities adhere to FDA data integrity principles, including ALCOA expectations: attributable, legible, contemporaneous, original, accurate, complete, consistent, enduring, and available.
- Assist with authoring, reviewing, and processing controlled documents, SOPs, forms, and validation-related documentation within MasterControl or other document management systems.
- Maintain control, organization, and traceability of batch records throughout review, approval, correction, and archival stages.
