You will partner closely with R&D, Human Factors, Clinical/Scientific Affairs, Industrial Design, Supply Chain, Manufacturing, Customer Experience, Marketing, and Executive Leadership to influence device design and quality strategy from concept through post-launch. This role offers a unique opportunity to shape product quality at scale, contribute to executive-level decision-making, and drive innovation that meaningfully improves consumer outcomes.
What You'll Do
Customer-Centric Quality Leadership

• Analyze consumer complaints, device returns, clinical data, and post-market surveillance insights to identify root causes and drive corrective actions across both technical performance and user experience
• Act as the voice of the consumer and patient in quality and product forums, ensuring safety, usability, and clinical insights translate into tangible product improvements
• Lead structured problem-solving initiatives to resolve complex quality and performance issues

Product Development & Design Quality

• Serve as the New Product Development (NPD) Quality Lead for device programs, guiding design controls, risk management, human factors, and quality documentation from early concept through validation and launch
• Review and approve Engineering Change Notices (ECNs), ensuring robust verification and validation while protecting device safety, performance, and claims
• Partner with cross-functional teams to define, measure, and validate critical-to-quality (CTQ) attributes, including skin compatibility, safety, efficacy, reliability, and durability
• Ensure biocompatibility, labeling, and claims substantiation are fully integrated into the product development lifecycle

Process, Supplier & Manufacturing Quality

• Collaborate with suppliers to investigate root causes and drive timely, compliant closure of corrective and preventive actions (CAPAs), particularly for contact materials, energy-based components, and precision hardware
• Influence manufacturing readiness by identifying device-specific failure modes and recommending risk-mitigation controls
• Support production transfer activities to ensure alignment between design intent, process capability, and quality requirements

Post-Launch & Lifecycle Quality Management

• Monitor product performance trends, consumer sentiment, and post-market data to identify early warning signals for skincare-specific risks
• Drive continuous improvements to device hardware and user experience post-launch in collaboration with Engineering, Design, and Quality partners
• Own product health dashboards and deliver clear, actionable insights to senior leadership focused on safety, reliability, and real-world performance

Cross-Functional Leadership & Continuous Improvement

• Facilitate cross-functional quality forums, ensuring accountability and timely issue resolution across teams
• Identify and implement efficiencies within design control, documentation, risk management, and testing workflows
• Mentor and coach junior engineers or quality team members to strengthen technical rigor, compliance mindset, and problem-solving capability

What You'll Bring
Education & Experience

• Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, Quality Engineering, Product Development, Human Factors Engineering, or a related technical field
• 4-7 years of experience in quality engineering, with a strong emphasis on new product development
• Hands-on experience with design controls, risk management, and verification/validation in a regulated or semi-regulated device environment

Technical Expertise

• Strong understanding of device product development lifecycles, risk management, design controls, and V&V practices
• Proficiency with root cause analysis tools (5 Whys, Fishbone, Fault Tree), FMEA, and statistical analysis methods
• Experience with change management, CAPA processes, manufacturing quality, and engineering documentation
• Working knowledge of standards such as ISO 9001, ISO 13485, IEC/UL safety standards, ISO 14971, and human factors guidelines is highly preferred

Tools & Ways of Working

• Proficient in Microsoft Office; experience with PLM systems, quality systems, and eQMS tools is a plus
• Strong analytical mindset, attention to detail, and structured approach to problem-solving
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence technical and non-technical stakeholders, including senior leadership
