Experience

Santa Clara, California · United States

Regulatory Affairs Specialist Intern

Jun 2026 - Aug 2026

  • Under supervision, traced device claims to verification reports and labeling, assessed whether a design change affected an approved submission, and maintained a response log for authority questions.
  • The team assembled medical-device submissions for regulatory review, mapping FDA information requests to controlled technical documents and identifying missing evidence with engineering and quality; I supported research preparation, validation, and documentation under mentor review. The team delivered a reviewed response package with document versions and owners, without representing submission as approval; confirmed with my mentor that my contribution was limited to the assigned support and validation work.
  • The team assessed change management records for a vascular device and reviewed labeling against the affected design claims, recording cumulative changes and questions for the regulatory lead; I supported research preparation, validation, and documentation under mentor review. The team kept the release decision pending when the regulatory impact of a change was unresolved; confirmed with my mentor that my contribution was limited to the assigned support and validation work.
  • Under supervision, owned a submissions traceability check using FDA requirements, resolved inconsistencies between labeling and technical documentation and completed the review-ready evidence index.
  • Under supervision, published a change-management checklist using clinical-documentation references, reduced repeated compliance review comments by 22% without treating internal signoff as regulatory approval.

  • In a mentor-reviewed simulation, assembled medical-device submissions for regulatory review, mapping FDA information requests to controlled technical documents and identifying missing evidence with engineering and quality; delivered a reviewed response package with document versions and owners, without representing submission as approval.
  • As a second supervised exercise, assessed change management records for a vascular device and reviewed labeling against the affected design claims, recording cumulative changes and questions for the regulatory lead; kept the release decision pending when the regulatory impact of a change was unresolved.
  • Within a supervisor-assigned documentation task, reconciled document revisions across technical files and cross-functional submission checklists. prevented superseded evidence from being included in the next review package.
  • Used Regulatory submissions and Requirements mapping to compare the source record with the proposed result; documented exceptions, the reviewer, and the acceptance decision before handoff.
  • Prepared a fictional case record with an event timeline, incomplete documentation and an escalation question; checked source consistency without using identifiable patient or participant records.
  • Created a review checklist separating administrative completeness from clinical decisions, tested a missing-date and conflicting-entry scenario, and documented which questions required a qualified professional’s review.
  • Owned the synthetic case-document review using approved training guidance, resolved a missing signoff and completed a version-controlled supervisor-review packet without real patient data.
