The ideal candidate is proactive, technically skilled, detail-oriented, and thrives in a fast-paced, collaborative R&D environment where continuous improvement and technical excellence are valued.

Key Responsibilities

• Support the development, validation, and execution of test methods for product and system verification activities.


• Perform complex benchtop and system-level testing, including intricate physical setups involving catheter manipulation, fixture assembly, and precise alignment of electro-mechanical components.


• Operate computer-controlled test platforms, configure test parameters, execute semi-automated test sequences, and extract/analyze data using command-line scripts in Linux-based environments.


• Conduct product characterization and detailed analysis on new and incoming devices to verify quality, performance, and functionality.


• Maintain a well-organized laboratory environment, ensure equipment readiness, and strictly adhere to safety and quality protocols.


• Prepare clear, accurate, and detailed technical documentation and standardized test reports to effectively communicate results to engineering and cross-functional teams.


• Uphold the highest standards of patient safety and product quality by following the company’s Quality Policy, procedures, and all applicable regulatory requirements.

Qualifications & Skills

• High School Diploma (or equivalent) with 5+ years of relevant experience in medical device development or a highly regulated industry. Post-secondary education in a technical field (e.g., engineering technology, electronics, or mechatronics) is strongly preferred.


• Proven ability to work independently on complex technical tasks, demonstrating strong critical thinking, problem-solving skills, and initiative.


• Skilled at identifying, troubleshooting, and resolving technical issues using a structured and analytical approach.


• Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to clearly document and present technical data.


• Hands-on experience with laboratory testing, instrumentation, and product verification in a regulated industry (medical device experience is highly preferred).


• Strong practical experience with electro-mechanical medical devices, including setup, operation, and troubleshooting of integrated hardware systems and precision assemblies.


• Experience interfacing with computer-based test systems and data acquisition tools, including Linux operating systems and command-line interfaces for data extraction and processing.


• Working knowledge of Good Laboratory Practices (GLP), validation protocols, and quality management systems.
