@amitpaul
I am a Medical Device Quality Assurance lead with 10+ years driving QMS, compliance, and risk management.
What I'm looking for
I am a Medical Device Quality Assurance professional with over a decade of experience delivering audit-ready quality systems and product compliance. I specialize in end-to-end quality assurance across design, production and post-market activities for complex medical products.
I drive design control processes and author or review critical lifecycle documentation including Design History Files (DHF), Software V&V artifacts, and Device Master Records (DMR). I have led design transfer activities, established traceability between requirements and risk controls, and supported regulatory submissions for patient monitoring, imaging, SaMD and implantable products.
I lead QMS implementation, CAPA, audits and supplier qualification, and have participated in multiple ISO 13485, MDSAP and regulatory authority inspections. I have managed and coached teams, led investigations and maintained zero CAPA overdues while improving complaint analysis and trending using Power BI (30% efficiency gain).
I hold recognized certifications in EU MDR, ISO 14971 and ISO 13485 auditing and bring a practical, data-driven approach to compliance and continuous improvement. I seek roles where I can strengthen product safety, regulatory readiness and team capability in a collaborative, quality-focused environment.
