Product Engineer- Mechanical

Cooper Surgical is a leading fertility and women's healthcare company dedicated to putting time on the side of women, babies, and families at the healthcare moments that matter most in life. We are at the forefront of delivering innovative assisted reproductive technology and genomic solutions that enhance the work of ART professionals to the benefit of families. We currently offer over 600 clinically relevant medical devices to women's healthcare providers, including testing and treatment options.

Product Engineering at Cooper Surgical means keeping our wide range of critical medical devices on the market, delivered on time and in compliance with international regulations. This means continuously improving our products for manufacturability, reliability and cost effectiveness, driving material changes due to supply chain issues and retesting to the latest international standards. This is a technical leadership opportunity assuming full ownership of product engineering work streams, subsystems and/or specific products and deliverables in the domains ranging from simple disposable devices to complex thermos‑fluidic systems and sophisticated robotic solutions involving IT connectivity, machine learning and AI.
