My new company

So the job I've accepted is with Fisher & Paykel Healthcare as Sr. Regulatory Affairs Specialist/Advisor doing pretty much the same type of stuff I do here in Colorado - getting medical devices approved for sales in various around the world (primarily US - since my expertise lies with navigating the FDA waters for medical devices).  

The devices I'll be working with are the respiratory & acute care items, with which I have previous experience so I'm in for a lot of refreshers from a product/anatomy side plus learning their quality system and processes.  The cool thing is that I also have previous experience working with CPAP and polysomnography systems as well, so I can be a backup for those products as needed.  

My new VP and Director are both American and I estimate probably about 20-ish additional US expats working there as well.  

The company has been around for quite a long time and is well respected in Auckland as one of the few NZ-originated companies who are still based in NZ.  The "parent" company, Fisher & Paykel, make appliances that appear to be popular in that part of the world.
