Your Role

As a Manager of R&D Engineering, you will lead a team responsible for the design, development, and industrialization of physical medical products. You will bridge R&D, manufacturing, and commercial teams to bring new material-based solutions to market.

Key Responsibilities Include

• Lead and develop a team of mechanical, materials, and product development engineers in a manufacturing environment

About You

You have a degree in mechanical engineering, materials science, manufacturing engineering, or a related field, along with several years of experience leading engineering teams in a product development and manufacturing environment.
