Your Role

Digital health technologies and connected medical devices are reshaping how medicines reach and benefit patients - and this role sits at the very center of that transformation. As Director, Regulatory Affairs for Digital Health and Medical Devices, you will serve as the global regulatory lead for an innovative portfolio of digital health technologies (DHTs) and medical devices that support the medicinal product pipeline. Working with high autonomy and recognized expertise, you will define and execute regulatory strategies that enable the development and approval of Software as a Medical Device (SaMD), digital biomarkers, and combination products across major global markets.

In this pivotal role, you will author and oversee health authority submissions worldwide - including interactions with the FDA, EMA, and other regulatory bodies - while serving as the primary device regulatory lead within global regulatory strategy teams. You will shape submission dossiers, lead agency interactions, and translate complex regulatory landscapes into actionable strategies that accelerate development timelines. Your expertise will directly influence how the organization navigates the evolving intersection of digital innovation and regulatory science, making you a critical voice in cross-functional governance and a trusted advisor to senior leadership.

You will collaborate closely with Device Engineering, Device Quality, and Commercial teams, representing the regulatory function in global project teams and contributing to the continuous evolution of regulatory knowledge and best practices across the organization. This is a rare opportunity to operate at the forefront of a rapidly evolving regulatory discipline, with global reach and meaningful impact on patient outcomes.
