Why Design and engineering at Stryker?

At Stryker, we are dedicated to improving lives, with a passion for researching and developing new medical device products. As a designer at Stryker, you will be proud of the work that you will be doing, using cutting-edge surgical technologies to save lives and make healthcare better. Here, you will work in a supportive culture with other incredibly talented and intelligent people, creating industry-leading medical technology products. You will also have growth opportunities, as we have a culture that supports your personal and professional development.
 

Where will you work?

You will work within our world-class industrial design team based in the Innovation Centre Cork, Ireland.

Summary

You will be a part of a design team that is responsible for driving the vision for the future of Stryker products. Utilizing user-centered design principles and methodology, you will work with interdisciplinary teams to identify relevant insights and translate them into actionable design opportunities. The designer puts significant effort into defining the user experience and product attributes that support the experience. The designer continues to advocate for the end user during a product’s development and drives activities to solicit end user feedback, such as end user co-creation activities.

The designer must have a passion to learn, leverage, and facilitate design thinking methods and tools to improve collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking in the cross-functional teams they support. It is through design process facilitation that a designer leads the effort to define a meaningful user experience.

2. In role as the creative specialist, the designer creates divergent product and service solutions to key market and business problems their team has identified as critical to the success of a project. Including establishing the strategic design plan and the aesthetic direction for the product.
