Bonus Points If You Have - Experience with tobacco regulatory requirements or FDA regulations applicable to tobacco products. - Experience supporting RIM system implementation, deployment, migration, or optimization projects. - Experience documenting current-state and future-state regulatory processes. - Experience working in pharma, medical device, tobacco, or other highly regulated product environments. - Experience using business process modeling tools beyond Visio.
