Electronics Engineer - Programme Manager - Medical Devices - Cambridge
Due to a growth in company output, there is a need for a new Programme Manager who has an Electronics Engineering pedigree.
Based in Cambridge, you will be leading several projects.
Some projects will involve you offering support and mentorship to junior members of staff, while other projects will involve you taking on the Electronics design aspects yourself.
We are looking for someone who has been working hands on developing new Medical Devices technologies in their current role, while mentoring other members of staff.
Most projects will be on electro-mechanical Medical Devices, so you will need to have worked on these types of technologies.
They could be implantable medical devices, wearable tech or another medical technology that abide by EN60601 standards.
Alongside past work experience, it is expected that you hold a relevant degree within a suitable subject that led you into a Medical Devices Electronics Engineering role.
It would also be advantageous if you hold a master's or PhD, but not essential as the active work experience in industry is more important.
The types of technologies you will be developing are lifesaving and life improving medical devices, truly industry disrupting technologies that will save and improve thousands of people's lives.
This role will involve working with external and internal entities, involving a lot of communications both virtual and in real life, due to this it would be advantageous if you have worked in a role that involved communicating updates and project changes continuously.
I mentioned knowing about EN60601, but it would also be essential to have a strong understanding of ISO 13485.
People who have been successful in this role previously tend to have a highly technical hobby, this could be building drones, tinkering with engines, computer programming or another hobby that involves problem solving.
If you do have such a hobby, make sure you highlight it on your CV to give you the best chance of gaining an interview.
Apart from working on industry changing technologies, you will be offered a proven career development plan, continuous training to keep you at the forefront of the medical devices sector, excellent salary, bonus, enhanced pension, medical insurance, free meals and other excellent benefits you'd expect from a multinational blue-chip organisation.
I expect a lot of interest in this role, so apply now or ensure consideration.
For more information, please contact Andrew Welsh, Director of Medical Devices, Biotech and Drug Discovery Recruitment at Newton Colmore, on +44 121 268 2240.
Alternatively, submit your application and a member of our team will be in touch.
