ZipRecruiter, Bothell, Washington, United States, 98021
Job DescriptionJob DescriptionSalary: 120K-140K
Job Title: Mechanical Engineer - Medical Device Design and Manufacturing Company Overview VerAvanti is an innovative medical device company specializing in precision imaging catheters and interventional tools. Our vision is to be
Your Intravascular Eyes , illuminating and empowering interventionalists with precision and insight. Our mission is to advance healthcare through cutting-edge technology that enables minimally invasive diagnostics and treatments. We foster a collaborative environment where ones creativity and attention to detail, drive our success in developing life-changing products. Job Summary We are seeking a talented Mechanical Manufacturing Engineer to join our R&D and manufacturing team. In this role, you will design manufacturing fixtures and optimize processes to support the production of precision millimeter-dimension imaging catheters, while also being a cognizant peer to our lead design engineer, contributing to the development of new products, including biopsy tools. The ideal candidate is a creative problem-solver with strong root cause analysis skills, succinctly direct communication abilities, and a team-oriented mindset. This position offers opportunities for equity participation, competitive benefits, and professional growth in a dynamic healthcare-focused environment. Key Responsibilities Design and develop manufacturing fixtures, jigs, and tooling to ensure efficient, repeatable production of precision imaging catheters with millimeter-scale tolerances. Create and optimize manufacturing processes that support high-precision assembly, testing, and quality control for imaging catheters and related components. Lead the peer review of new medical device designs drafted from the Chief Designer, including biopsy tools, from concept through prototyping, reviewing compliance with regulatory standards and user needs. Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g., R&D, quality assurance, and production) to iterate designs, troubleshoot issues, and implement improvements. Perform detailed mechanical analysis, simulations, and testing to validate designs for functionality, durability, and safety. Conduct verification efforts for manufacturing process changes. Generate technical documentation, including drawings, specifications, and reports, to support product development and manufacturing transitions to design freeze and scale up. Stay abreast of industry trends and incorporate innovative solutions to enhance product performance, lower costs and improve manufacturability. Qualifications Bachelor's or Master's degree in Mechanical Engineering or a related field. 3+ years of experience in mechanical design and manufacturing engineering; preferably in the medical device industry, semiconductor industry or with precision instruments (Fluke, Xbox, Oculus, etc). Proven track record in designing manufacturing fixtures and processes for high-precision components. Experience in product design for medical devices, such as catheters or biopsy tools, is highly desirable. Familiarity with regulatory standards, including ISO 13485 and EN 13485 for quality management in medical devices. Familiarity with chemistry is a plus but not required. Required Skills and Attributes Fluency in SolidWorks for 3D modeling, assembly design, and simulation; experience with other low cost CAD tools (e.g., FreeCAD) is a plus. Strong understanding of precision engineering principles, including GD&T tolerances, materials selection (e.g., polymers, metals), and manufacturing methods (e.g., injection molding, extrusion, CNC machining), Gauge R&R, Root Cause Analysis Methods. Crisp communication skills, with the ability to present ideas clearly to technical and non-technical stakeholders. Proven team player who thrives in collaborative settings and contributes to group problem-solving. Creative vision with a passion for innovation, demonstrated through conceptual design and out-of-the-box thinking. Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite and engineering analysis tools (e.g., FEA software). What We Offer Competitive market salary commensurate with experience. Comprehensive healthcare benefits, including medical, long-term care , and vision coverage. Generous Paid Time Off (PTO) policy to support work-life balance. Equity participation opportunities allowing you to share in the company's success. Professional development resources, including training and conference attendance. A supportive, inclusive workplace with flexible hours and opportunities for advancement. If you are a driven engineer passionate about transforming healthcare through precision design, we encourage you to apply. We are an equal opportunity employer!
