This hub provides critical functions, meeting the growing demand of Moderna’s global business operations. We're inviting professionals from around the world to join our mission and contribute to the future of mRNA medicines.

This individual contributor role is a pivotal part of Moderna’s Quality organization, responsible for administering and optimizing global digital Quality Systems with a focus on validation platforms. You will lead configuration, integration, and ongoing management of enterprise systems such as Kneat, Veeva, Tosca, and other internal solutions. You will ensure seamless operation, robust compliance, and forward-thinking enhancement of these systems. Working cross-functionally across Digital, Quality, and business teams, you will blend technical expertise with a deep understanding of Quality processes, supporting system validation, continuous improvement, and inspection readiness. This position will offer the opportunity to engage with next-generation automation and AI capabilities as part of Moderna’s drive toward intelligent Quality systems. You will play a key role in ensuring that Moderna’s validation and quality operations remain scalable, compliant, and digitally empowered.

Here’s What You’ll Do

Your key responsibilities will be:

• Serve as the technical lead and administrator for the electronic validation management system (Kneat).

• Manage configuration, enhancement deployment, and role-based access control across systems.

• Deliver operational support and user enablement, including issue resolution, guidance, documentation, and training.

• Oversee metrics reporting and dashboard development to monitor system performance and compliance.

• Support validation and qualification activities across implementations and changes, in accordance with GxP and SDLC.

• Manage system data integrity and ensure seamless integration across quality and testing platforms.

• Administer additional Quality systems including Veeva QMS/DMS, testing tools (e.g., Tosca), and internal platforms.

• Drive automation and AI adoption in digital Quality systems to improve compliance and performance.

Your responsibilities will also include:

• Manage delivery of digital Quality initiatives with a focus on validation tools, including proactive risk management and adherence to timelines.

• Collaborate across cross-functional teams to implement and integrate quality and validation platforms effectively.

• Evaluate enhancement requests and apply continuous improvement methodology to optimize workflows and user experience.

• Support audit and inspection readiness by ensuring systems are compliant and documentation is complete and current.

• Contribute to broader strategic Quality and Digital initiatives by prioritizing tasks and maintaining clear communication with stakeholders.

• Adhere to all internal SOPs and relevant global GxP regulations, ensuring that systems remain aligned with regulatory expectations.

• Manage multiple concurrent priorities and deliverables while supporting enterprise goals.

The key Moderna Mindsets you’ll need to succeed in the role:

  In this role, you will be at the core of Moderna’s digital Quality transformation. Whether enabling automation, managing validation systems, or integrating platforms, your work will be central to maximizing the digital efficiency and scalability of our global Quality ecosystem.

• “We obsess over learning. We don’t have to be the smartest; we have to learn the fastest.”
  Given the dynamic nature of our platforms and regulatory environment, success in this position requires rapid learning, continuous upskilling, and the ability to apply new digital and compliance insights to evolving system needs.

Here’s What You’ll Need (Basic Qualifications)

• Experience with APIs, data reporting, and system integrations.
