• Lead client demonstrations, user acceptance testing, feedback capture, and acceptance or signoff.
  
• Maintain traceability from the original client's needs through requirements, validation, and approval.
  
• Improve domain understanding across product, engineering, data science, and leadership teams.

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• Previous experience as a medical-device reviewer with experience in medical-device regulatory review, regulatory affairs, quality assurance, clinical review, or related regulated-document field.
  
• Strong understanding of medical-device submission documentation and review processes.
  
• Experience gathering requirements and working directly with clients, reviewers, or other domain stakeholders.
  
• Ability to translate complex domain needs into clear, testable product requirements.
  
• Experience conducting user acceptance testing or structured software validation.
  
• Ability to identify missing evidence, unsupported conclusions, workflow gaps, and unintended consequences.
  
• Strong analytical, facilitation, documentation, and communication skills.
  
• Credibility and confidence when working with client domain experts.
  
• Comfort collaborating with product managers, engineers, data scientists, and UX teams.
