Summary:
We are seeking an experienced Senior Regulatory Affairs Specialist to support our growing Regulatory Affairs organization. This is a high-impact individual contributor role for a regulatory professional who can independently manage core regulatory activities, own moderately complex U.S. and international submissions, and provide strong cross-functional support across product development and sustaining activities. The ideal candidate brings solid FDA experience, working knowledge of global regulatory landscapes, and a proactive, collaborative mindset to navigating evolving regulatory requirements.

- Provide regulatory input into product development and design enhancements—including biocompatibility, sterilization, packaging, shelf life, clinical strategy, product changes, and labeling decisions—to help ensure compliance is built into the development process. Support Operations and cost-reduction projects as assigned.
- Conduct regulatory review of promotional materials, advertising claims, and customer-facing communications in partnership with Regulatory Affairs leadership, ensuring consistency with approved claims and regulatory requirements.
- Partner with Quality to support a QMS that meets global regulatory expectations and supports continuous improvement. Support compliance with FDA and other applicable regulations and regulating bodies.
- Monitor proposed regulatory changes from the FDA and other agencies, including worldwide regulatory authorities, and communicate relevant updates to internal stakeholders.
- Maintain visibility into evolving global regulatory requirements and support domestic and international registration and listing activities.
- Support risk management activities, health hazard evaluations, and decision-making processes for field actions or advisory notices, with escalation of higher-risk matters as appropriate.
- Support regulatory compliance activities such as CAPAs, NCMRs, complaints, and related post-market quality activities as needed.
- Maintain current knowledge of the regulatory landscape in order to provide sound regulatory input and day-to-day guidance to the business.
Who You Will Report To:
- Director, Regulatory Affairs
Requirements:
- Master's degree with a minimum of 5 years of directly relevant regulatory affairs experience, or Bachelor's degree with a minimum of 8 years of directly relevant regulatory affairs experience, in the medical device, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, or in vitro diagnostics (IVD) industry, including experience with Class II or Class III electromechanical medical devices.
- Prior experience with the FDA and/or other regulatory agencies is required. Proven success owning regulatory submissions such as 510(k)s and letters to file and supporting regulatory strategy through product development lifecycles.
- Experience providing regulatory guidance in areas such as biocompatibility, packaging, sterilization, labeling, and review of product claims and promotional content in a fast-paced, innovative environment.
- Strong understanding of U.S. regulatory requirements; familiarity with EU MDR and other international regulations preferred. U.S. and/or European/International regulations and standards knowledge is required.
