Your Job
You will lead the translation of design input requirements into design specifications, implementation and design proof for smart inhalation and nebuliser systems. You are responsible for ensuring that medical devices meet defined performance, safety and regulatory requirements through robust design, testing and verification activities.
Our Team
You’ll work within the Device Development Department alongside mechanical, electronics, software, industrialisation and programme teams. You will collaborate closely with external design contractors, component suppliers and specialist test partners (safety, electrical, aerosol). The role is primarily office-based, supported by access to 3D printing, machine shop facilities, CAD tools and technical laboratories.
What You Will Do
- Technology concept development — Analyse problems, prepare solution proposals and plan/execute feasibility studies.
- Component definition — Define component requirements, select components and communicate with suppliers.
- Simulation & modelling — Simulate device functions (e.g., component life, performance parameters) to support design decisions.
- Prototype development — Develop functional samples, design prototypes and optimise their performance through iterative testing.
- Design proof & testing — Plan, perform and document design testing to demonstrate design proof.
- Verification & validation — Create V&V plans and protocols, execute device verification and validation, and support software validation.
- Cross-functional collaboration — Work closely with design and industrialisation teams to ensure smooth transfer of designs into manufacturing.
- External partner management — Coordinate with design contractors, component suppliers and test institutes.
- Documentation & reporting — Produce clear, compliant documentation across feasibility, design, testing and V&V activities.
