Evaluate design changes for their impact on usability, clinical workflow, and use-related risk.
Maintain usability engineering files and ensure documentation is complete, traceable, compliant, and audit-ready.
Partner with Quality and Regulatory teams to support submissions, design reviews, audits, and responses to human factors-related regulatory questions.
Coordinate with external research facilities, healthcare professionals, recruiting partners, and usability-testing vendors when required.
Advocate for the needs and perspectives of healthcare professionals and other end users throughout the product lifecycle.
