● Lead preparation for and execution of internal audits; coordinate external audits and inspections by FDA, notified bodies, and other regulatory or certification authorities.
● Contribute to supplier quality management, including supplier qualification, audits, performance monitoring, and resolution of supplier-related quality issues.
● Participate in post-market surveillance activities, including complaint handling, MDRs/adverse event reporting, trend analysis, and implementation of corrective actions.
● Assist in regulatory submissions and compliance reviews related to product development, lifecycle changes, and market access.
● Monitor, analyze, and report quality performance metrics and trends to senior management, recommending and driving improvement initiatives.
● Train, mentor, and develop staff on quality policies, procedures, tools, and regulatory requirements, fostering a culture of quality and compliance.
● Stay current with regulatory changes, standards updates, and best practices in medical device quality and incorporate them into the QMS and processes.
● Coordinate with global/offshore teams as needed to ensure alignment of quality processes and standards.
Qualifications
● Bachelor’s degree or higher in engineering, bioscience, biomedical engineering, quality management, or related technical discipline.
● 5–10 years of experience in quality management/quality assurance within the medical device industry, including building and managing QMS systems.
● In-depth knowledge of FDA 21 CFR Part 820, ISO 13485, ISO 14971, and related global medical device standards and regulations.
● Proven experience in leading or participating in FDA inspections and third-party audits (e.g., notified bodies, certification bodies).
● Direct experience managing CAPA, complaints, post-market surveillance systems, and MDR/adverse event reporting processes.
● Strong understanding of medical device manufacturing processes, design control, validation, and statistical quality control methods.
● Excellent documentation skills and experience maintaining quality records (DHR, DHF, technical files) in compliance with regulatory standards.
● Strong analytical and logical thinking skills with the ability to interpret data, identify issues, and propose effective, data-driven solutions.
● Highly detail-oriented with strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
● Exceptional communication and leadership skills, with experience collaborating across functions and training teams.
● High proficiency in Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook) and familiarity with quality management software tools.
Preferred Attributes
● Experience with Class II or III medical devices and global markets (e.g., EU MDR, Health Canada, other international regulators).
● Knowledge of lean manufacturing, Six Sigma, or other continuous improvement methodologies; related certifications are a plus.
● Certification in quality (e.g., ASQ CQM, CQE, CQA) or regulatory affairs is desirable.
● Willingness and ability to participate in occasional international travel (e.g., Pakistan, India, Saudi Arabia) to engage with offshore or partner teams, if required
