Building bridges between innovation and patient impact
Hi, I’m Felix. I am a medical device Technical Product Manager and Operations Lead with eight years of experience managing the full device lifecycle, bridging R&D innovation with scalable, market-ready manufacturing solutions.
Work
Translating state-of-the-art prosthetic and orthotic research into commercially viable products through early risk assessment and design concept viability.
Design Concept Feasibility
Driving the complete product development lifecycle for both early-stage concepts and commercially scaled devices.
Design & Development
Manufacturing & Launch
Showcasing commercialization and operational execution across the final stages of the medical device lifecycle.
Market Entry & Sustainability
Highlighting operational scalability, regulatory compliance, and long-term viability.
-
Drove improvement in business KPIs and scaled production capacity by sustainably under ISO 13485 standards by implementing QMS, robust CAPA/RCA quality frameworks, and streamlined inventory systems.
-
Spearheaded early-stage R&D for novel prosthetic technologies, directing a multi-disciplinary team and driving cross-agency regulatory milestones.
-
Technical consultant of research projects in the prosthetics and orthotics field, specializing in design manufacturability and 3D additive manufacturing.
-
Optimized supply chain economics and regulatory compliance—achieving a reduction in raw material costs, standardizing inventory management, successfully filing Medical Device dossiers with the Philippine FDA, and fostering a high-performance organizational culture.
-
Spearheaded technical documentation and CAD/FEA mechanical validation for Class II/III implant and instrument systems during pre-design transfer, maintaining ISO 13485 and IEC 60601-compliant technical files for global market readiness.
-
Master’s thesis at the Neuroengineering Laboratory.
-
Optimized manufacturing operations by reducing scrap rates through standardized CNC procedures, realizing hundreds of thousands of pesos in annual cost savings, successfully steering an implant system design transfer, and maintaining a flawless zero-non-conformance record during ISO 13485 audits as Process Owner.
-
Executed end-to-end product development—from DfM-driven CAD/FEA prototyping and mechanical validation of ISO 13485/IEC 60601 ortho-electronic systems to cross-functional milestone delivery, regulatory coordination, and clinical training for established hip replacement systems.
