• Act as the central point of coordination across Engineering, IT, Security, Quality, and Regulatory teams
• Support audit and inspection readiness by ensuring all required artifacts are current and accessible
• Coordinate responses to security questionnaires, audits, and customer requests
Control Assurance

• Ensure proper tracking of remediation activities and SLA adherence
• Coordinate supplier and third-party security requirements
Continuous Improvement

• Enhance dashboards, templates, and evidence tracking systems

• 5+ years of experience in cybersecurity, GRC, or risk management within regulated environments
• Strong experience in healthcare, medical devices, life sciences, or similar regulated industries
