The role provides enterprise technical compliance expertise for complex or novel topics where the organization requires a common interpretation, methodology, framework, template, or strategic approach. The Director connects regulatory intelligence and inspection learning with the technical and operational expertise of Quality, Manufacturing, MSAT, Engineering, Regulatory Affairs, Product Development, Supply Chain, Digital, and Technical Operations.
