Ask the right technical questions to ensure label content aligns with the actual assay design

Product name and description
Intended use summary
Storage and handling conditions
Lot number, expiration date, and symbols
Warnings and limitations
Ensure consistency of information across all labeling components
Cross-Functional Collaboration
Work closely with Regulatory Affairs to incorporate regulatory-required content and feedback
Partner with R&D, Quality, Manufacturing, and Supply Chain to gather label inputs and manage revisions
Support change control activities related to labeling updates
Documentation & File Management
Maintain organized, version-controlled label files and artwork
Support design change implementation and label lifecycle management
Prepare label drafts and revisions for review and approval
Required Qualifications

High attention to detail and accuracy
Preferred Qualifications
Experience with IVD or diagnostics labeling
Familiarity with label symbols and conventions used in diagnostics or medical products
Experience working in a cross-functional, regulated environment

Excellent communication and collaboration skills
