• Prepare, coordinate, author, and maintain regulatory submissions and supporting documentation, which may include 510(k)s, PMA supplements, pre-submissions, annual reports, EU MDR technical documentation, and international registration packages.
• Serve as the Regulatory Affairs representative on cross-functional console development and sustaining teams, providing regulatory feedback throughout design, verification and validation, transfer, manufacturing, and post-market lifecycle activities.
• Assess console product, software, cybersecurity, electrical, optical, mechanical, supplier, manufacturing, and service changes for regulatory impact and document clear, timely filing recommendations.
• Partner with Systems, Software, Electrical, Mechanical, Human Factors, Cybersecurity, Design Assurance, Quality, Clinical, Medical Safety, Operations, Service, and international regulatory teams to ensure submission content is complete, consistent, and technically supported.
• Review console design and technical documentation for regulatory readiness, including device descriptions, architecture and interface information, software documentation, cybersecurity documentation, electrical safety and EMC evidence, usability engineering, risk management, verification and validation reports, labeling, installation, service, and maintenance information.
• Develop and maintain productive working relationships with FDA, EU Notified Body, and other regulatory reviewers through clear written and oral communications; support responses to questions and follow-up requests during active reviews.
• Coordinate with international regulatory partners to communicate console-specific requirements, provide technical documentation, and support new registrations, renewals, and change notifications.
• Support regulatory audits and inspections, quality system integration activities, and continuous improvement initiatives related to the SEISMIQ console portfolio.
• Apply sound project management, prioritization, and technical writing skills to manage multiple regulatory deliverables and meet program timelines.
• Maintain a primary commitment to patient safety and product quality by ensuring compliance with Boston Scientific's Quality Policy, applicable procedures, and global regulatory requirements.
