  • Work directly with facility personnel to operationalize new procedures and quality controls.

  • Provide employee training and implementation support for new or revised processes, as needed.

  • Support the organization through its planned November 1 launch and provide ongoing Quality support following go-live, as needed.

Required Qualifications

  • Significant medical device Quality or Quality Systems experience.

  • Demonstrated experience implementing or adapting a QMS for medical device operations.

  • Strong knowledge of FDA medical device quality requirements and inspection readiness.

  • Experience developing and implementing auditable quality and operational processes.

  • Experience with warehouse, distribution, inventory, traceability, quarantine/hold, and product release controls.

  • Experience supporting computerized system validation or validation of warehouse/inventory management systems.

  • Ability to provide hands-on implementation support and work directly with site personnel.

  • Ability to work onsite in the Atlanta/Duluth, Georgia area.

Preferred Qualifications

  • Experience supporting startup or launch activities for a medical device manufacturing operation.

  • Experience with Class I medical devices.

  • Experience establishing quality controls for direct-to-consumer distribution.

  • Local to the Atlanta/Duluth, Georgia area.

Work Arrangement

Ideal Candidate
