- Update risk management files based on build changes and post-market information, ensuring ongoing product safety.
- Facilitate risk reviews and risk management team meetings.
- Train and mentor team members on risk management principles and tools.

- Excellent analytical and data-driven decision-making skills, with the ability to independently assess risk, influence design decisions, and balance patient safety, product performance, and compliance.
- Demonstrated ability to lead and influence cross-functional teams, communicate complex risk concepts clearly, and drive alignment across engineering, quality, and regulatory stakeholders.
