Product Development Engineer / Senior Product Development Engineer

Join us to help launch a new range of products and accessories for patients in critical care. This role is covering for a parental leave with the team and hence is a 12 month fixed-term opportunity. 

 

With the R&D phase completed we are now focused on moving through product realisation. If you enjoy working with multiple disciplines and understanding how all the cogs of design, supply chain, manufacturing, and marketing interact to get a product launched on the global stage, then this role is for you.

 

As part of a dedicated, experienced team, you'll be exposed to all stages of transferring medical products into production and gain a comprehensive understanding of how this informs design decisions. There will be plenty of opportunities to grow your engineering expertise as we finalise the product offering, validate performance and support the market release.

 

A great communicator, you are the type of person who is confident getting over hurdles to make things work, with sharing ideas, and taking part in decision making. Come and apply your logic and problem-solving skills to the unique challenges of sustainable medical devices and help ensure our products continue to improve neonate patient care across the globe.
