Background in a regulated environment such as medical device, pharmaceutical, or automotive is strongly preferred.

Strong written and verbal English communication skills with the ability to present information clearly across multiple teams.

Experience developing practical solutions to technical or process-related issues in a fast-paced setting.

Proficiency with Microsoft Office applications and disciplined documentation practices.

Ability to collaborate effectively with cross-functional stakeholders while maintaining accountability for deadlines and deliverables.
