  • Cross-functionally collaborate with design, marketing, manufacturing, and sales to optimize regulatory strategies and minimize time to market
  • Serve as the primary contact and subject matter expert (SME) during FDA inspections, Notified Body audits, and ISO 13485 certification audits

Validation & Supplier Quality

  • Support planning, execution, and documentation for design, manufacturing, and/or site validation activities
  • Collaborate with supply chain to qualify new suppliers and components critical for new products
  • Lead offsite vendor audits and qualifications; manage ongoing supplier quality performance monitoring throughout the product lifecycle

Post-Market Surveillance

  • Support post-market surveillance activities including complaint handling, vigilance reporting, and field actions in compliance with global regulations
  • Feed post-market insights back into the product development process

Cross-Functional Collaboration

  • Work closely and agilely with R&D, manufacturing, regulatory affairs, and commercial teams — integrating quality and regulatory principles throughout the product lifecycle
  • Influence design and manufacturing decisions to ensure compliance and support rapid development cycles while maintaining quality excellence
