• Ensure system implementations and changes meet ISO 13485, 21 CFR Part 820/11, and internal operating procedures.

• Develop and execute validation plans for non-product software used in manufacturing and quality processes.
• Collaborate with IT, Systems, QA, and functional owners to ensure validated systems remain compliant through upgrades and change control.

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Engineering (Systems, Software, or another related technical field).
• Experience developing AWS-based solutions and front-end and/or back-end software development is a plus.
• 3–5 years of experience in a medical device manufacturing environment, operations engineering, or other regulated manufacturing environment.
• Strong knowledge of ISO 14971, ISO 13485, 21 CFR Part 11/820, and IEC 62304.
• Proven track record delivering validated systems that support production, traceability, and business/compliance objectives.
