  • Interface with Regulatory Affairs, Procurement, and Manufacturing teams to ensure timely product release and issue resolution.
  • Participate in supplier audits, readiness assessments, and quality improvement initiatives.
  • Ensure compliance with applicable ISO 13485, FDA 21 CFR Part 820, MDR, and internal QMS policies.
  • Maintain accurate quality documentation and records in accordance with document control and record retention requirements.
