Meet the team:
The Advanced Manufacturing Engineering team works in new product introduction as the bridge between R&D and operations. The Process Development team specifically focuses on designing and qualifying new processes from initial pilot and clinical builds to product launch and supporting through scale-up stabilization. This includes manufacturing process automation, test method development, specification development, and product stability testing throughout various stresses seen in commercial production and use. This team works very closely with R&D on the latest and novel technologies and concepts for glucose sensing subsystems. We are looking for someone with a thorough understanding of medical device development and a practical problem solver to join a fast-paced and supportive environment!
Where you come in:
You will resolve complex process/product development and manufacturing issues, overseeing internal resources, and independently contributing to the integration of new products and processes from R&D, focused on the product analytics, test method development, and sensor performance space.
You will optimize analytical methods for quantifying the effects of stresses in commercial product use on sensor performance including aging, sterilization, storage/shipping excursions, wear, etc.
You will drive an understanding of system level trade-offs and interactions of the sensor physiology with underlying scientific challenges of new innovations and root cause understanding of product failure modes
You will design processes and partner with benchtop, pre-clinical, clinical, and qualification teams as needed to build out correlations of in vitro and in vivo performance.
You will solve problems where the path forward is ambiguous and cross-functional.
You will mentor and foster the growth of junior engineers as a technical lead on the team.
