FDA food, drug, and device recall records from the openFDA enforcement-report API

Harper Velasquez leads how FoodRecallWatch reads and presents FDA recall records from the openFDA enforcement-report API. The role decides which fields each recall, brand, and state page surfaces — product, manufacturer, hazard class, distribution geography, recall reason, and recall stage — documents the methodology, and triages corrections. Recall figures and summaries are drafted with AI assistance and editorially reviewed against the underlying FDA enforcement-report records before publication.
