Job Duties:
  • Lead and coordinate Use-Related Risk Analysis (URRA) activities across assigned medical device and combination product programs.

  • Support risk assessments, including URRA, Design FMEA, and Process FMEA activities.
  • Monitor project schedules, milestones, risks, and deliverables; escalate issues and delays as needed.
  • Support integration of third-party development activities, including vendor communications and deliverable reviews.
  • Drive consistent execution of systems engineering and risk management processes and identify opportunities for improvement.

Qualifications:
  • BS in Engineering, Science, or a related technical discipline with 5+ years of relevant experience, or MS with 3+ years of experience.
  • 3–5 years of experience in pharmaceutical, medical device, combination product, or another regulated industry.
  • Experience with Use-Related Risk Analysis, Human Factors, Risk Management, and/or product development.
  • Strong experience with Design Controls and Design History File (DHF) management.
  • Working knowledge of systems engineering principles, including requirements definition, traceability, risk management, product architecture, and change management.
  • Experience with applicable regulatory standards such as FDA 21 CFR Part 820.30, 21 CFR Part 4, ISO 14971, ISO 13485, or EU MDR.
  • Strong organizational, facilitation, communication, and analytical skills.
