  • Evaluate supplier change notifications, qualify changes, and provide expert support in design reviews. 

  • Act as the Altium schematic and PWB design tool librarian, maintaining the global parts library. 

  • Ensure compliance with global regulatory standards and provide training on component selection and characteristics. 

  • Participate in product development teams to create, manage, and audit design history files and technical documentation through the design control process. 

  • Ensure compliance with FDA/QSR and ISO design control regulations. 

  • Develop standards of best practice to be applied to Flexible Endoscope Development projects and, as applicable, the global Product Development group. 

  • Participate in and lead (as required) global project teams working to ensure continued compliance with national and international standards. 

  • Responsible for participating in the Design Controls portion of all regulatory agency audits which involve Flexible Endoscope Development. 

  • Perform internal audits of Design History Files, technical documentation, and FED procedures and documentation to ensure compliance. 

  • Investigate and respond to corrective actions in a timely manner. 

  • Serve as a point of contact for KARL STORZ Regulatory Departments. 

  • Responsible for understanding the application of relevant standards to the activities of Flexible Endoscope Development, to stay current on new revisions, and to ensure compliance. 

  • Performance of gap analysis for revised applicable standards. 

  • Identify and review new standards to determine applicability to Flexible Endoscope Development instruments. 

 

What you need to be considered for the role: 

  • Bachelor’s degree required – Mechanical, Electrical or Software Engineering preferred and a minimum of 10 years in component engineering. 

  • 8 or more years of experience in a Medical Device design / manufacturing environment working under FDA and/or ISO regulations.  

  • Experience in new product development of reusable medical devices required. 

  • Familiarity with U.S. FDA Quality System Regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and international quality standards (ISO 13485, ISO 9001).
