What does QA Operations do?

QA Operations is responsible for the release of batches (product release) by monitoring and checking production information, identifying deviations, and coordinating departments so that data is available completely and on time. Through tight KPI monitoring, up-to-date release documentation, and correct CoAs (Certificates of Analysis), we ensure that every batch can move through the chain safely, compliantly, and without delay - from production to customer.

As an intern, you will participate in our QA back office. You will develop yourself in the areas of quality monitoring, process coordination, data analysis, accuracy, and professional collaboration within a high-care production environment.

A large part of your work consists of reviewing batch records. You check if everything is correct, complete, and made available on time so that batches can be released. Additionally, you support the management of KPIs, release files, and certificates, and you get the opportunity to observe the handling of complaints and deviations.
