Hi,
I am currently contracting in supplier quality with a pharmaceutical manufacturer. I have 11 years experience in industry across production, QA compliance and the bulk of it in Supplier Quality. I am a certified lead auditor and have completed close on 100 audits at this stage of sterile CMO's, API plants etc. My current contract is coming to an end and I have been contacted about 2 different roles in NPI, wondering if people think it would be a big jump going from what I do currently into an NPI role? I have extensive experience in start ups due to being a contractor and have worked in sterile fill finish plants and OSD so I think I would have a fairly good grasp of most processes. Could any NPI engineers fill me in on what your day to day tasks entail? Is it interesting work/ high pressure etc. What are the critical skills one needs for such role? Just looking for any info really as dont want to waste my time and any prospective companies time by pursuing something that just wont be a fit. Thanks.
