Although I have yet to work in industry, I would like to work as a design engineer. I can see how familiarity with FDA regulations can be a great asset/necessity for Design/R&D Engineers when designing as things such as material selection for a device or implant have mandates. However, I am looking forward to discovering and discussing further how FDA regulations shape the design process and prototyping.

SRG36 your position sounds like a blast. To the Product design engineers here, Is there anything in particular in your academics or otherwise that has been vital in preparing you for your present position?
