Gathered, analyzed, and assessed customer product complaints using Electronic Medical Records (EMR).

Analysis of quality data for trending purposes using software tools such as MiniTab and Microsoft Excel. Preparation of QA reports

Conducted root cause analysis and statistical analysis to identify trends and report serious issues.

Implemented Risk Management system according to ISO 14971.

Performed risks assessments related to product manufacturing.

Identified and reported Corrective and Preventive Actions (CAPAs) to the manufacturing team.

Wrote SOP (Standard Operating Procedures), quality templates, and regulatory forms according to the organizational policies.

Trained manufacturing team according to ISO 13485.

Provided support in preparing for CE and FDA audits and executing audits.

Conducted audits, including closing out audit findings, creating audits finding reports and determine proper corrective and preventive actions.
