• Generate and review SOPs and technical documentation for the complete lifecycle of Class II and Class III medical products
• Proactively monitor regulatory landscapes, interpret new guidelines, and strategically advise on integration into OMEC's quality framework

• Provide dedicated quality engineering support throughout the entire NPI lifecycle from early-stage R&D through design transfer and commercialization
• Drive efficient and compliant design control processes adapted to the fast-paced nature of NPI
• Proactively identify quality risks, define critical quality attributes, and implement appropriate controls to ensure product safety, effectiveness, and compliance
• Represent quality and regulatory interests during formal design reviews

• Lead and contribute to comprehensive risk management activities per ISO 14971, ensuring risks are effectively identified, evaluated, controlled and monitored particularly during rapid design iterations
• Apply standards expertise including IEC 60601-1, IEC 62304 (Software), IEC 81001-5-1 (Cybersecurity), and AAMI/SW96 (Cybersecurity Risk Management)
