* Lead technical and quality oversight of future technology transfer projects, including process transfer planning, documentation review, and the negotiation of technical and quality agreements.
* Support the preparation and submission of quality and CMC sections for regulatory filings (e.g. IMPD amendments, INDs, future BLA / MAAs).
* Provide subject matter expertise in quality, GMP, and manufacturing operations and ATMP regulatory requirements to cross-functional project teams.
* Contribute to the strategic manufacturing roadmap for Gyala’s lead program and pipeline assets.
* Author technical and quality documents including SOPs, protocols, reports, and related documentation.
