  • Support or lead batch release activities, including review of DHRs (Device History Records) and verification of QC test results.
  • 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.
  • Oversee equipment qualification and process validation activities (IQ/OQ/PQ) performed at supplier and CMO sites, ensuring documented evidence of compliance.
