• Develop and maintain assigned system design deliverables and traceability for NPI projects.  

• Contribute to translation of user needs, intended use, clinical workflow inputs, and stakeholder inputs into system requirements and design inputs.  

• Contribute to subsystem decomposition, interface definition, and architecture-related documentation with appropriate review.  

• Create and update design control, risk, verification/validation, usability, Design Change, and DHF documentation with appropriate review.  

• Participate in hands-on robotic system testing, integration, troubleshooting, and laboratory evaluation activities.  

• Support evaluation and integration of supplier, third-party, or externally developed components, software, or technologies as assigned.  

• Support collaboration with Software, Hardware, Mechanical, Clinical, Quality, Regulatory Affairs, Manufacturing, Marketing, and other stakeholders.  

Quality and compliance responsibilities include:

• Advanced Associate II team members may act as Scrum Master for smaller teams or defined project scopes.  

• Support Associate I team members through peer coaching and knowledge sharing.  

What Makes You Stand Out

• Intermediate understanding of systems engineering, medical device design controls, quality system procedures, and regulated product development.  

• Working knowledge of user needs, intended use, clinical workflow inputs, requirements engineering, traceability, subsystem decomposition, interfaces, and the core design control deliverables used in NPI projects.  

• Ability to execute assigned technical work with increasing independence while collaborating effectively within multidisciplinary teams.  

• Ability to communicate technical information, rationale, follow-up, status, impediments, and risks clearly.  

• High level of accountability, integrity, attention to detail, and openness to coaching and feedback.  

• Working knowledge of Microsoft Office; experience with requirements management tools, Agile tools, SolidWorks, MATLAB, Python, or C++ is an asset.  

• Written and spoken French is an asset.  

Your Background

• Bachelor's degree in engineering, science, biomedical engineering, computer engineering, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, or a related technical field. Biomedical engineering is an asset.

• Minimum 1 to 3 year of relevant engineering experience.

• Experience or exposure to medical device development, robotics, software-controlled systems, or regulated industries is an asset.

• Experience with SolidWorks, MATLAB, Python, C++, requirements management tools, or Agile development tools is an asset.
