• Determine appropriate regulatory pathways for new or modified products and document decisions using Regulatory Pathway Forms and Note-to-File documentation.
• Review Regulatory Pathway Forms, Document Change Orders, and related documentation to assess whether product changes require additional submissions or supporting evidence.
• Review clinical, manufacturing, and nonclinical information for inclusion in regulatory submissions and ensure data are presented accurately and clearly.
• Review product labeling and supporting documentation to confirm alignment with regulatory requirements and approved indications.
• Develop, revise, and implement Regulatory Affairs standard operating procedures (SOPs) to improve submission quality and consistency.

• Exercise sound regulatory judgment and analytical skills when assessing product changes, labeling updates, and lifecycle management decisions.
• Maintain a results-driven approach, taking ownership of submission execution and ensuring high-quality, timely regulatory deliverables.
• Operate effectively under pressure, adjust to changing priorities, and maintain accountability for regulatory outcomes.

• Minimum of five years of related medical device Regulatory Affairs experience.
• Strong experience preparing, authoring, reviewing, and leading U.S. medical device premarket submissions, particularly 510(k)s.
