Job Description: Development Engineer

We’re looking for a Development Engineer to join our growing Engineering team and help deliver complex medical device products from customer scoping to production.

This is a varied, hands-on role offering the opportunity to work across different technologies and stages of the product development lifecycle. You’ll collaborate with colleagues across Engineering, Quality, Manufacturing, Process Engineering and Service, as well as suppliers and customers, to develop practical, manufacturable and compliant solutions.

You’ll support product development, technical documentation, verification and validation, manufacturing transfer, problem-solving and lifecycle improvements within a regulated, quality-focused environment. You’ll also have the opportunity to contribute ideas, improve ways of working and develop your technical experience as our business grows.

What you’ll be doing

  • Support customer-led product development from initial scoping and requirements through design, risk assessment, verification, validation and manufacturing transfer.
  • Work across a range of technologies, which may include mechanical design, materials, CAD, electromechanical systems, automation, manufacturing processes and test methods.
  • Collaborate with Quality, Manufacturing, Process Engineering, Service, suppliers and customers to develop robust, manufacturable and compliant solutions.
  • Create and maintain clear engineering documentation to support product development, technical decision-making and regulatory requirements.
  • Use structured problem-solving and data to investigate technical challenges and support product and process improvements.
  • Contribute to lifecycle improvements and the continued development of engineering processes and ways of working.
  • Take ownership of agreed technical activities, with support and guidance from experienced engineering colleagues where required.

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.

Experience within medical devices, including Class II products, FDA/MDR requirements, verification, validation or manufacturing transfer, would be advantageous, but isn’t essential.
