Own or oversee quality risk management strategies for external operations, including risk profiles, risk controls, escalation pathways, quality metrics, scorecards, trend reviews, and continuous improvement plans for CMOs and critical suppliers.

Ensure robust CMO and supplier qualification, selection, onboarding, ongoing monitoring, and lifecycle governance in partnership with Technical Operations, Supply Chain, Regulatory, Inspection Management, and Quality Systems.

Lead and/or support health authority inspection readiness, pre-approval inspection readiness, CMO inspection support, due diligence assessments, and responses to inspection observations associated with CMC and external operations.

Provide Quality leadership for regulatory submissions and post-approval commitments, including review of relevant CMC sections for INDs, BLAs, MAAs, amendments, supplements, annual reports, and responses to health authority questions.

Develop, implement, and continuously improve CMC QA policies, SOPs, standards, governance processes, and scalable quality infrastructure to support rare and ultrarare disease product development, commercial supply, and portfolio growth.

Model and reinforce a culture of quality, accountability, collaboration, continuous improvement, and patient focus across internal teams and external partners.

Perform other duties as assigned.

Requirements:

Bachelor's degree in life sciences, engineering, pharmacy, chemistry, biotechnology, or a related discipline; advanced degree (MS, PharmD, PhD, or equivalent) preferred.

Typically 15+ years of progressive experience in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, biologics, gene therapy, small molecule, or related regulated industry, with significant experience in CMC Quality Assurance and external manufacturing oversight.

Typically 10+ years of leadership experience within a Quality organization in a FDA/EMA-regulated environment, including experience leading leaders or senior professionals and managing departmental priorities, budgets, and resources.

Demonstrated experience providing quality oversight for CMOs/CDMOs, critical suppliers, and/or outsourced GMP operations across clinical, launch, and commercial lifecycle stages.

Expert knowledge of global GMP requirements and expectations, including FDA, EMA, ICH Q7/Q8/Q9/Q10/Q11/Q12 as applicable, and experience with other regulatory authorities such as MHRA, PMDA, Health Canada, ANVISA, and/or other global agencies.

Strong technical understanding of CMC development and manufacturing across multiple modalities such as biologics, small molecules, oligonucleotides, gene therapy, mRNA, enzymes/proteins, or other advanced/novel therapeutics; direct experience with starting materials, drug substance, and drug product preferred.

Proven ability to lead CMC QA strategy for rapid development, rare disease, ultrarare disease, registration, launch readiness, and commercial operations in a matrixed and/or highly outsourced operating model.

Demonstrated expertise in quality agreements, supplier qualification, deviation/investigation approval, CAPA effectiveness, change control, validation, technology transfer, APQR/PQR, CPV, and quality metrics.

Experience supporting health authority inspections, PAI readiness, regulatory filings, responses to health authority questions, and inspection observation remediation.

Strong quality risk management capability and proficiency with root cause analysis, risk assessment, trend analysis, and decision-making tools.

Executive-level communication, influencing, negotiation, and stakeholder-management skills, with the ability to align senior leaders and external partners around pragmatic, compliant, patient-focused solutions.

Demonstrated ability to build, lead, engage, and develop high-performing teams through ambiguity, growth, and organizational change.

Experience with Veeva or other electronic Quality Management Systems preferred; proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Teams, and Project or equivalent tools required.

Ability to work in a hybrid environment and travel to Ultragenyx sites, external manufacturing partners, contract laboratories, supplier sites, and other business locations as needed.
