About Lucinda Martinez
As a quality assurance/control leader, I ensure high-quality pharmaceutical and medical device manufacturing and release by implementing stringent QA/QC procedures, maintaining consistent regulatory compliance, and developing highly productive teams.Throughout my time, I have transformed facility operations to optimize production quality. To this end, I implement site self-assessments, improve lab infrastructure, and source reliable suppliers. For instance, I revamped lab processes as a QC Chemistry Manager, increasing on-time product release from 10% to 95%+ and stability testing from 50% to 100% within 3 months.I greatly value my ability to develop high-performing teams as well as new leaders. This allows me to build employee trust, boost morale, and optimize productivity. I have led several initiatives to promote staff efficiency, engagement, and diversity and inclusion. As an example, I grew team satisfaction at Alcon by addressing their concerns, mitigating ineffective processes, and hosting D&I events.SELECTED ACCOMPLISHMENTS- Expedited product release by acquiring new isolators, reducing sterility testing time from 3-4 hours to 30 minutes- Eliminated product reworks, delays, and escalations by establishing a TrackWise change control system- Boosted staff efficiency by instituting PIPs, furthering role changes, and formulating SOPs and job aids.If you’re looking for someone who leads best-in-case product development, enforces strong quality control/assurance protocols, and specializes in managing cross-functional teams, email me: 1••••••••@gmail.com.Key Skills: Quality Assurance/Control Leadership, Product Manufacturing & Release, Manufacturing Process Improvement, Regulatory Adherence, Team Oversight & Mentorship, Product Quality Enhancement, Audit Readiness, Change Control, Product Introduction & Development, Cross-Functional Team Coordination.
