About the role

Key responsibilities & impact
  • Lead hands-on catheter prototype development from concept through evaluation
  • Translate customer needs, user requirements, and project objectives into measurable engineering requirements and prototype objectives
  • Generate, model, and evaluate catheter concepts at component, subassembly, and full-device levels
  • Create and maintain 3D CAD models, 2D engineering drawings, specifications, and prototype build documentation
  • Select and evaluate materials, components, joining methods, and manufacturing approaches
  • Build or modify prototypes using catheter-development techniques, tools, fixtures, and laboratory equipment
  • Develop and execute prototype test methods and bench setups
  • Analyze prototype and test data to identify failure modes and drive design decisions
  • Support design verification and risk-management activities, including verification plans, test protocols and reports, design-risk identification, and critical-to-quality characteristics
  • Plan and coordinate technical execution of development programs, including plans, schedules, budgets, prototype builds, and deliverables
  • Collaborate with customers, technicians, suppliers, manufacturing partners, and cross-functional engineering teams to resolve technical and prototype-build challenges
  • Facilitate decisions regarding concept selection, prototype approaches, suppliers, and critical design characteristics
  • Communicate technical results, risks, and recommendations
  • Provide technical leadership and mentorship to less-experienced engineers

Requirements

What you’ll need
  • Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or related technical field is strongly preferred; other relevant postsecondary education, training and experience may be considered in lieu of a Bachelor’s Degree
  • Minimum 5 years of relevant engineering experience required; 1 year of relevant experience may be substituted for a graduate degree and 3 years for a doctorate
  • Demonstrated experience designing and developing catheter-based medical devices or catheter components
  • Hands-on experience building, modifying, troubleshooting, and evaluating catheter prototypes
  • Experience with 3D CAD modeling, production-quality 2D engineering drawings, and engineering documentation
  • Experience developing or executing bench-level test methods and using prototype and test data to guide design decisions
  • Understanding of design controls and product development within a regulated quality system
  • Ability to solve complex technical problems, communicate recommendations clearly, and collaborate cross-functionally
  • Experience with catheter materials, components, and manufacturing processes, including polymer tubing, wire, braid, coils, bonding, thermal forming, molding, extrusion, marker integration, shafts, tips, hubs, balloons, or steering/deflection features, preferred
  • Experience with laboratory prototype tools, fixtures, benchtop test equipment, measurement systems, failure analysis, and root-cause investigation, preferred
  • Experience with engineering analysis tools and methods such as DOE, statistical analysis, tolerance stack-ups, and Minitab, preferred
  • Experience supporting design verification, design transfer, manufacturing scale-up, supplier development, or coaching and mentoring technical staff, preferred
  • Ability to move between Fridley and White Bear Lake sites, as needed to support project activities
