Do you have experience in developing medical devices? Do you want to be a part of all phases in product development? And are you motivated by making a difference for your customers by providing new concepts and innovative products? Then your next career move may be as Senior R&D Engineer with Ambu.
Since 1937, Ambu has developed, manufactured and sold medical devices. Today, millions of patients and healthcare professionals depend on the functionality and performance of Ambu’s products worldwide.
In this newly established and challenging position, you will be an active contributor in the innovation team and participate in securing the future success of Ambu in the interests of our users.
You will be part of an effective innovation culture with a tradition for fast completion of projects, which means that there is a visible link between your results and Ambu’s growth. You will be a member of an innovative team located at our headquarters in Ballerup. We focus on developing new products and processes that combine technologies in new and innovative ways. This puts high demands on your skills and requires broad experience.
Active involvement – from conceptual design to product validation
As senior R&D Engineer, you are a vital player in product development projects as you are involved in all aspects of the innovation process – from the conceptual design to the product validation. You participate in the interaction with future users of the products and you are also responsible for the required documentation.
Your main responsibilities are:
- To identify user needs through participation in the project start-up phase where interaction with key opinion leaders, doctors and other experts worldwide is crucial in order to fulfil the ambitious innovation targets.
- Concept development of ground-breaking products within new clinical and technological areas of Ambu.
- Mechanical design. You will be responsible for plastic and mechanical construction within the development project groups.
- Documentation in accordance with the regulations from FDA and ISO.
Your contact base is broad, and you will interface with Ambu’s global organisation, all departments involved in product development projects and externally with users, knowledge centers and suppliers.
Experienced medical device engineer
You have knowledge of developing medical devices, and you are able to translate user-needs into mechanical solutions. You have solid experience with plastic and mechanical construction. Most likely, you are employed in a similar job within the medical device industry or in a consultancy that deals with the medical device field. Your previous employments have given you solid experience with documentation according to FDA/ISO guidelines.
Most likely, you hold a degree in mechanical engineering or a similar field.
As a person you are self-motivated, committed and have a strong sense of responsibility towards your work. You are thorough and detail-oriented but at the same time you have great interpersonal skills and have a sense of the situation, which makes you thrive in global teams. You are a “do’er” and prefer to act on rather than theorise about problems.
Since we are a global company, you will be involved in cross-cultural collaboration. Consequently, it is a requirement that you are fluent in English and that you are able to communicate efficiently. Lastly, you thrive in a position that gives you the opportunity to travel approximately 20-30 days a year.
