Principal Usability Engineer - Implantable Medical Devices - Oxford
We are working with a pioneering medical technology company in Oxfordshire to recruit a Principal Usability Engineer who will lead the design and evaluation of intuitive, user-centred implantable devices.
This is a rare opportunity to shape how surgical teams and clinicians interact with transformative technologies, ensuring that every touchpoint is purposeful, accessible, and grounded in real-world clinical workflows.
The role is based in Oxfordshire and offers hybrid working, with three days on-site including Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Occasional travel to partner sites across Europe will be required, so a willingness to travel is essential.
This is a direct hire with a medical devices company, not a design consultancy.
You will champion usability across the full product lifecycle, from early concept development to post-market evaluation.
Working closely with engineering, clinical, and design teams, you will ensure that user needs drive design decisions rather than simply meeting regulatory compliance.
Your work will span formative and summative usability studies, interface refinement, and continuous evaluation of user experience across a portfolio of implantable technologies.
You will lead usability studies in clinical and simulated environments, translate user insights into actionable design inputs, and collaborate with industrial designers, software engineers, and systems teams to refine workflows and interactions.
You will contribute to usability documentation for regulatory submissions, represent usability in design reviews and stakeholder presentations, and mentor internal teams while managing external partners.
To succeed in this role, you will bring a strong background in usability engineering, UX design, or human-computer interaction within regulated environments.
Experience with surgical or implantable medical technologies is highly desirable.
You should be confident in leading usability studies, synthesising complex user data into clear design direction, and communicating effectively across multidisciplinary teams.
Familiarity with tools such as Axure, Figma, or Adobe XD is beneficial, alongside a proactive mindset and a deep empathy for users.
This is more than a technical leadership position.
It is a chance to influence how innovative medical technologies are experienced in real-world clinical settings.
You will be joining a company that values design thinking, continuous learning, and meaningful impact.
The role offers a competitive package including shares or equity, life assurance, pension, private healthcare, income protection, and an employer discount scheme—benefits more commonly found in larger organisations.
To learn more, contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and Drug Discovery Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240.
Alternatively, submit your CV and a member of our team will be in touch. ....Read more...
