    ·       Develop and execute verification protocols; analyze results and produce clear technical reports.

    ·       Build, test, inspect, and troubleshoot hardware in the lab using appropriate test and inspection equipment.

    ·       Support design changes, prototype builds, 3D printing, and manufacturing transfer activities.

    ·       Contribute to risk assessments, design reviews, and engineering documentation within a regulated quality system.



    Requirements

    What you bring:

    ·       BS in Mechanical Engineering or related field; MS preferred.

    ·       Approximately 5+ years of product-development experience in medical devices.

    ·       Strong SolidWorks 3D modeling and drawing experience.

    ·       Hands-on experience with FEA, tolerance analysis, failure analysis, DOE/statistics, and Minitab.

    ·       Knowledge of injection molding, DFM, prototyping, and precision mechanical systems.

    ·        Microfluidics, test-fixture design, hands-on verification testing, injection molding design – all are strong pluses.

    ·       SolidWorks PDM or another CAD/PDM systems

    ·       Experience designing test fixtures and working across mechanical, electrical, and systems disciplines.

    ·       A proactive, coachable, collaborative mindset and comfort owning work end to end.
