DESCRIPTION:
Cibus is a biotechnology company with advanced technologies to precisely target and direct a plant’s natural gene-editing processes. This approach accelerates natural plant breeding that has been a staple of farming for thousands of years and has resulted in a rapid, versatile, and low-cost way to produce sustainable industrial and agricultural products and improve human health by safely harnessing nature's own genetic diversity.
The company has a worldwide presence, with subsidiaries in Europe and North America and a state-of-the-art research and development center in San Diego. Cibus has a pipeline of traits for canola and rice and is developing crop platforms and a pipeline of trait products in other major global crops including soybean, corn, and wheat. The broad applicability of Cibus’ technologies is highlighted by the company’s strain-advancement program, which develops sustainable products in microbial platforms for the food, flavor and fragrance, and personal care markets.
Cibus has an immediate opening for Associate Director of Quality Assurance. We are seeking an experienced quality professional to lead the quality assurance function. The successful applicant will work closely with our production and technical teams as well as senior leaders across the organization.
This is a highly collaborative and cross-functional role with direct oversight of the three pillars of our quality assurance program: quality systems and risk management, product line quality, and stewardship and compliance. The ideal candidate for this role has strong leadership, organization, and communication skills and the ability to informally influence across the organization.
The successful candidate will work with quality leadership to develop and execute the short and long-term strategy of the quality assurance function. This role plays a key part in representing Cibus to external customers, including global regulatory agencies.
