  • Perform simulations for design verification and validation of medical devices, including analyses using SOMA database and tools, structural FEA, MRI, CFD, Musculoskeletal modeling, or other simulation disciplines.
  • Develop or adapt simulation models to fit product evaluation needs and create standard operating procedures under minimal supervision.
  • Support problem solving, root cause analysis, identify potential solutions, and evaluate them against requirements.
  • Conduct research and studies to support product design under minimal supervision.
  • Act as a subject matter expert for qualification and validation activities related to general simulation team operations.
  • Provide guidance and mentorship to Project Engineers, Technicians, and Interns on simulation-related topics.
  • Collaborate with stakeholders to prepare, perform analyses, and provide guidance to better interpret simulation results and validate by collaborating with different stakeholders.
  • Verify and validate simulation models and software tools through rigorous credibility assessment in collaboration with other stakeholders from test engineering and simulation customers.
  • Consult the team in utilizing CAD software packages and requirements needed for performing simulations.
  • Partner with project teams to foster the use of simulation to design safer and higher-performance devices while reducing time and cost.

Business Objectives:

  • Understand the product's intended use, function, and clinical procedures.
  • Take ownership of planning simulation tasks for projects and manage simulation campaigns.
  • Coordinate and take ownership of simulation tasks with external partners and assure quality execution of the tasks.

Regulatory Compliance:

  • Understand fundamental industry standards and testing and simulation strategies which align with regulatory requirements.
  • Ensure proper documentation, presentation, and traceability of executed simulations.
  • Learn relevant Design Control procedures including Simulation, R&D, and Biomechanics procedures and gain an understanding of risk management per the Quality Management System.
  • Become familiar with standardized design verification norms per ASTM/ISO as well as relevant FDA/regulatory guidance.
  • Understand and champion good practices and compliance.

General Responsibilities:

  • Work with R&D, Product Development, Quality, Manufacturing, Regulatory, Clinical, Marketing, and Project Management to ensure project success under minimal supervision.
  • Learn procedures, policies, processes, systems, and relevant technology.
  • Demonstrate ownership and integrity of work.
  • Build stable relationships.
  • Contribute to projects as a team member.

Required Skills:

  • Fundamental knowledge and understanding of corresponding simulation disciplines, e.g., SOMA database and tools, structural FEA, MRI, CFD, Musculoskeletal modeling, or other simulation disciplines.
