At Medtronic you can begin a life-long career of exploration and innovation, while helping champion healthcare access and equity for all. You'll lead with purpose, breaking down barriers to innovation in a more connected, compassionate world.

As a Clinical Safety Specialist, you will play a key role in ensuring the highest standards of safety and compliance throughout the clinical study process.

In this role, you will collaborate closely with colleagues across Medtronic — including members of the MCRS Clinical Safety team, other MCRS functions, Regulatory Affairs, and Clinical teams within the Operating Units. Together, you will manage the reporting of adverse events, deaths, and device deficiencies in accordance with relevant regulations and Medtronic's internal standards. This position is ideal for someone who values precision, teamwork, and the meaningful impact of maintaining patient safety in clinical research.

• Ensure consistency and regulatory compliance in the evaluation and reporting of safety events and device issues
• Collaborate with Regulatory Affairs, Product Complaint, and Data Management teams to support accurate and timely reporting and documentation
• Act as a key contact for safety-related questions and contribute to the development of safety management and reporting plans
• Support audits, database reviews, and Clinical Event Committee (CEC) activities to ensure study quality and data integrity
• Prepare safety-related sections of reports, participate in safety trend reviews, and contribute to continuous improvement of safety processes.
