  • Ensure aseptic technique and contamination control in cleanroom environments
  • Support facility and equipment readiness, including area/equipment prep, cleaning, and turnover
  • Follow cGMP, EHS, and SOP guidelines with precision and consistency
  • Participate in shift-based operations (including potential nights/weekends on rotation)
