Quality Assurance
Opportunities in Boston and Paddington, London
At Vertex, scientific innovation is at the core of everything we do. Our Quality Assurance (QA) teams play an integral role in helping to bring our medicines to the patient communities we serve by ensuring every product is delivered to the highest standard.
We are relentless in our approach to use science and innovation to do the impossible. At every point in the delivery process, we welcome new ways to innovate and encourage openness, transparency, collaboration and embrace different perspectives.
Who we're looking for
At Vertex, we approach QA with a Vertexian mindset. This means we are looking for people who want to operate at the heart of the process – not just the final checkpoint. Our QA team depends on strong communication and cross-functional collaboration skills, values the exchange of ideas and encourages others to think differently.
We’re not head-down at a lab bench all day. We have a vision, and you need one too. We thrive because we are connected to a real sense of purpose – to help deliver transformative medicines to patients we serve as quickly as we can.
