Work with the client's quality representatives on deviation investigations, root cause analysis, and resolution
Support the client's change management program by authoring proposed changes, running impact and regression assessments, and documenting change results and release
Evaluate system integrations: how they're designed and built, how data flows from source to target systems, and how to test them
Keep clear, detailed records of qualification, validation, and change control activities so they're ready for future audits, and make sure the team does the same

Communicate requirements, with the reasoning behind them, clearly in writing and in person to all levels of the client's organization
