Quality Assurance Specialist – Cambridge
A growing Medical Devices company based in Cambridge is currently looking for a new Quality Assurance Specialist to assist in the development of the QMS system for ISO 13485 standards. They are open to candidates from alternative sectors, allowing for ISO 13485 standards training.
You will also be creating and managing technical files for several Medical Devices lines, including Class I, Class IIa and Class IIb Medical Devices. You’ll collaborate with a number of Medical Devices experts, but you will be the sole person focusing on Quality Assurance duties. However, you will receive Quality Assurance assistance from the parent company’s Quality Assurance Manager. Due to this, we are open to candidates who only have a couple of years of experience of ISO 9001 or QMS, but also keen to hear from people with more experience.
This is an excellent opportunity for someone a couple of years into their career and looking for more responsibility to lead the development of a QMS system, or for someone who is looking for a route into the Medical Devices sector under ISO 13485 standards. Due to the active work in setting up the QMS system, you will need to be in the office daily; however, over time there should be the opportunity for hybrid working.
It is expected that you would hold a degree in a subject that has led you into a Quality Assurance, Quality Engineering, or Design Assurance role.
Apart from having a Quality Assurance background, it would also be highly advantageous if you have a good understanding of Regulatory Affairs.
Part of your role will involve working alongside the manufacturing teams for these medical devices. Due to this, it would be highly beneficial if your Medical Devices Quality Assurance experience came from a Quality Engineering background, although this is not essential.
I anticipate a lot of interest in this role, so if you are interested, I suggest making an application now or risk missing out.
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices recruitment, Science recruitment and Biotech recruitment specialists Newton Colmore Consulting, on +44 121 268 2240 or make an application and one of our team at Newton Colmore Consulting will contact you.....Read more...
Security Cleared Firmware Engineer – DSP Engineer - Cambridge – Spin-Out Company
A new Spin-Out company, based in Cambridge, providing product development for Security Cleared sectors, is currently looking for an experienced Firmware Engineer or DSP Engineer to work on a wide range of new technologies.
You will be working on a range of new technology inventions, providing expert approaches to Firmware Engineering and DSP Engineering applications. Due to the varied nature of the work, we ideally seek someone with knowledge of FPGA, DSP design and engineering, DSP Modelling, and design using embedded systems. Not all of these areas are required, but having experience in as many as possible in your past roles as a Firmware Engineer or DSP Engineer would be advantageous.
Specific experience working on high-speed electronic systems would be ideal but is not essential.
If you have previously worked in a security-cleared environment, it would be fantastic, although not essential as they are open to candidates from different sectors. However, you must be able to obtain security clearance. This usually means being a British Citizen or residing in the UK for five years in continuous employment. If you already hold security clearance from another source, this would be acceptable.
You are going to work on some extremely interesting projects that will help you continually develop your career. Apart from this, you will receive an excellent starting salary and a benefits package in line with the parent company, along with continuous career training for future progression.
We are looking for someone to start as soon as possible, so if you are interested, we recommend making an application now to avoid missing out. However, we understand you may have a long notice period, which can be normal in this sector.
For more information, please feel free to call Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices Recruitment and Scientific Recruitment Specialist at Newton Colmore, on 0121 268 2240, or submit an application, and one of our team members at Newton Colmore will contact you.
