Medical Devices Consultant – Senior Mechanical Engineer – Cambridge
Due to the growth of a leading Medical Devices organisation, we are currently seeking a Senior Mechanical Engineer, Project Manager, Medical Devices Inventor, or Mechanical Design Consultant for a newly approved role. The company is based in Cambridge and boasts some of the most impressive labs globally, which they are currently enhancing even further.
You will collaborate with other experts in Medical Devices who have backgrounds in Mechanical Engineering, Mechanical Design, Electronics Design, Electronics Engineering, Physical Engineering, Biomedical Sciences, and various other skills essential for inventing Medical Technology. Consequently, teamwork will be crucial.
In this role, you will lead projects, necessitating experience as a consultant, project manager, or another role involving interactions with third parties. Additionally, you will apply your skills hands-on, directly contributing to the development of new Medical Devices.
We require several years of experience in Mechanical Design of Medical Devices. Familiarity with any 3D CAD tool is acceptable, as we understand that you can be trained on the necessary tools when required. However, knowledge of SolidWorks would be advantageous.
Most individuals in similar roles hold a degree in a Mechanical Engineering field, but experience takes precedence.
