R&D Engineer; Biomedical

Position Overview

We’re on the lookout for exceptionally talented individuals with a first-class engineering degree (biomedical, mechanical, aerospace, materials) or similar (physics, data science, maths etc.) to join our Life Sciences team. You will join a team of expert engineers and scientists working on unusual, exciting projects to break new ground in medical devices and biotechnology across European and US markets.

A typical week developing medical technologies might include:

• Planning experiments and designing test rigs (30%)
• Physics-based modelling (e.g. FEA or CFD) and data analysis (30%)
• Ideating and prototyping novel designs (20%)
• Collaborating with clients and university technology labs (10%)
• Reading scientific literature to explore new ideas and techniques (10%)

So if you’re comfortable with at least 50% of the above, you’ll quickly be brought up to speed by the team for the rest.
