You are an experienced, hands-on Clinical Research Associate who takes pride in disciplined execution, clean data, and audit-ready trials. You don’t just monitor studies — you own sitelevel execution and data quality end to end. This role exists to ensure that clinical trials are run exactly as designed, deviations are minimized and corrected, and data stands up to audits, analysis, and publication.

• processing time.

• Ensure strict adherence to protocols, GCP, ICH, ISO 14155.

• Proactively identify risks, deviations, and non-compliance — and drive resolution.

• Train and support site staff and junior coordinators on protocol procedures, EDC usage, and GCP requirements.

• Collaborate with sponsors, CROs (when applicable), investigators, and data management teams for study oversight and data reconciliation.

2. Data quality & source verification (primary)

• Perform rigorous SDV/SDR to ensure accuracy, completeness, and timeliness.

• Own site-level query management, follow-ups, and closures.

• Ensure source → EDC traceability and contemporaneous documentation.

• Support database lock readiness through disciplined site cleanup.

3. Issue management & CAPAs

• Document deviations, non-compliances, and AEs/SAEs accurately and on time.

• Support CAPA implementation at site level and verify effectiveness.

• Escalate only when necessary — otherwise solve problems at the site.

4. Audit & inspection readiness

• Ensure sites are inspection-ready at all times.

• Proven hands-on experience in site monitoring and SDV.

• Strong understanding of GCP, ICH, ISO 14155.

• Experience with EDC systems and query management.

• Comfortable independently managing multiple sites.

• Medical device trial experience.

• Exposure to audits or regulatory inspections.

• Experience supporting database lock activities.

• Utilize Python and SPSS for data validation, statistical reporting, and workflow automation

• Support investigators in abstract development, scientific presentations, and statistical analysis reporting.

• Contribute to protocol development, manuscript drafting and journal submission processes

Mindset

• Execution-focused and detail-oriented.

• Strong sense of ownership — “my sites, my data.”

• Low tolerance for sloppy documentation or shortcuts.

• Enjoys fixing real problems in real clinical settings.
