You will lead the system-level development of active medical devices (Class IIa) within Phillips Medisize’s Device Development department. You’ll take ownership of mechatronic design, system architecture, and design lifecycle delivery for smart inhaler platforms and related combination products. You will ensure devices meet defined requirements, are developed in line with regulatory expectations, and progress through design, verification, validation and industrialisation on time and within budget.

Our Team

You’ll join the Device Development Department, a multidisciplinary group of mechanical, electronics, software, design assurance and programme teams working together to deliver next-generation drug-delivery technologies. We collaborate closely with external design partners, CMOs, test houses and industrialisation teams, operating from our Cambridge site. We value contribution, proactive problem-solving, self-actualisation and engagement within your team.

What You Will Do

  • Mechatronic system design — Lead the design of medical device mechatronics, including smart inhaler functionality.
  • Design input & specifications — Generate and manage design input requirements, system specifications and mechatronic product documentation.
  • Design history file ownership — Create and maintain the DHF, ensuring compliant, complete and traceable documentation.
  • Cross-functional development — Work with mechanical, software, electronics and QA teams to define, implement and verify mechatronic design outputs.
  • Verification & validation — Plan, execute and document testing, validation and design reviews with internal and external partners.
  • Industrialisation support — Implement mechatronics into production, supporting process validation and device variant introduction.
  • Supplier & partner management — Identify, engage and manage external design partners, suppliers and test organisations.
  • Standards & lifecycle improvement — Contribute to defining and improving mechatronics development standards, tools and processes.
  • Project leadership — Support planning, budgeting, timelines and resource allocation in alignment with company policies.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
