Description
Réalta Technologies are searching for a Technical Writer/CSV Engineer to support our Pharmaceutical client based in Cork.
The successful candidate will be focused on eliminating paper-based processes in warehouse operations and transitioning to digital workflows. This role will be central to Computer System Validation (CSV) testing, and to documenting, standardizing, and communicating new digital procedures as the site rolls out and integrates systems such as SAP and Tulip, alongside other supporting technologies, to replace manual and paper-driven tasks.
The successful candidate will ensure documentation and testing deliverables meet regulatory, corporate, and site requirements while supporting a smooth transition to digital warehouse operations in a regulated pharmaceutical environment.
This role will be offered on an initial 9-month contract, with the potential for extensions to follow.

Support IT compliance activities, including System Periodic Reviews, Audit Trail Reviews, and validation lifecycle documentation for newly implemented systems.
