Job Description

Title: Operational Quality Visual Inspection Lead

Location: Fargo, ND: 58104

Contract: 06+ Months

Job Description:

• The GMP Visual Inspector performs 100% manual visual inspection of filled and sealed drug product vials.
• Using a controlled inspection booth, standardized lighting, and approved techniques, the inspector evaluates each vial for visible particulate matter and container, closure, fill, and cosmetic defects.
• Nonconforming units are removed, uncertain conditions are escalated, and inspection results are documented when the work is performed.
• This is a dedicated, full-time inspection role.
• Previous pharmaceutical or visual inspection experience is not required.
• Success depends on patience, concentration, consistency, visual attention, and willingness to follow a defined method every time.
• Structured training and qualifications are provided.

What to Expect:

• This is focused, repetitive, precision work.
• Inspectors spend much of the shift examining small glass vials under controlled lighting, with required eye breaks built into the process.
• Some training products are clear and straightforward.
• Most will be opaque, colored, or visually challenging.
• Accuracy is more important than speed.
• Work in a quiet, controlled environment where distractions are minimized.
• Use the same approved inspection technique consistently throughout the shift.
• Reject defects and route uncertain conditions for further evaluation rather than guessing. Handle high-value drug product carefully and maintain accurate reconciliation and documentation.

Key Responsibilities:

• Complete required GMP, GDP, safety, procedure, defect-recognition, and inspection-technique training.
• Successfully complete initial qualification before independently inspecting GMP product and maintain active qualification status.
• Perform 100% manual visual inspection of assigned filled and sealed vials using approved lighting, backgrounds, handling technique, and inspection timing.
• Identify and document visible particles, fibers, fill-volume concerns, container or closure defects, scratches, scuffs, discoloration, and other defined defects. Segregate rejected units and units requiring further evaluation while maintaining clear material status and chain of custody.
• Record inspection results accurately and contemporaneously in accordance with GDP requirements.
• Follow required inspection intervals, eye breaks, area controls, gowning, hygiene, and product-handling requirements.
• Support reconciliation of inspected, accepted, rejected, and further-evaluation units.
• Participate in refresher training, requalification, defect-kit activities, and continuing inspection practice as assigned.
• When inspection demand is lower, support approved Drug Product activities such as training, area readiness, defect-kit preparation, inventory, documentation support, or continuous improvement within the employee’s training and authorization.

Minimum Qualifications:

• High school diploma or GED.
• Bachelors of Science in life science preferred. Ability to read and understand written procedures, follow step-by-step instructions, and complete clear, accurate records in English.
• Basic math skills sufficient for counts, reconciliation, and simple calculations.
• Ability to maintain sustained attention during repetitive, detail-oriented work.
• Reliable attendance and ability to work the assigned first- or second-shift schedule.
• Good documentation practices Ability to meet role-specific visual requirements, including 20/20 near visual acuity with or without corrective lenses and the ability to distinguish required colors, as confirmed through the applicable eye examination.
• Ability to handle small glass vials safely and perform fine visual and manual work during scheduled inspection periods.
• Preferred Qualifications: Prior experience is not required.
• Experience in pharmaceutical, medical-device, laboratory, electronics, precision assembly, quality inspection, manufacturing, or other detail-oriented work may be helpful.
