What You Can Expect Monogram, a Zimmer Biomet Company, is hiring a Staff Development Engineer for our team in Austin, Texas. Monogram's surgeon-guided semi- and fully autonomous robotic technologies are expected to add new and differentiated capabilities to Zimmer Biomet's already broad suite of customer‑centric technology solutions. By joining this team you will be taking part in cutting edge technology used to improve patient outcomes and relieve pain for patients across the globe.
As a Staff Engineer, you will serve as a technical leader responsible for driving innovation, ensuring product quality, and guiding cross‑functional teams through the design, development, verification, and commercialization of medical devices. You will provide deep technical expertise, mentor engineers, and help define the technical strategy that supports our mission to improve patient outcomes and advance healthcare technology.
How You'll Create Impact Principal Responsibilites
Serve as the subject matter expert (SME) for one or more core technologies or product lines.
Lead complex design and development activities, from concept through design transfer and manufacturing.
Develop and maintain design control documentation (e.g., design inputs, risk analysis, verification/validation protocols).
Generate and evaluate innovative solutions to complex engineering challenges.
Apply engineering principles, modeling, and simulation tools to develop safe, effective, and reliable devices.
Support feasibility studies, prototyping, and design optimization.
Partner with Quality, Regulatory, and Clinical teams to ensure design compliance with FDA, ISO 13485, and other global regulatory standards.
Work closely with suppliers and manufacturing partners to ensure design‑formanufacturability and scalability.
Provide technical guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and project teams.
Contribute to the long‑term technology roadmap and identify opportunities for product and process improvements.
Lead technical reviews and participate in design and risk assessments.
Ensure adherence to design control, risk management, and change control procedures per ISO 14971 and 21 CFR Part 820.
Support root‑cause investigations and CAPA activities for field or production issues.
Lead verification and validation activities such as drafting protocols, executing protocols and drafting reports.
What Makes You Stand Out
Master’s or PhD in Engineering or related field.
Experience with Class II or Class III implantable or electromechanical devices.
Knowledge of biocompatibility, sterilization, and validation processes.
Familiarity with Agile development and systems engineering practices.
Demonstrated leadership and mentoring experience.
Strong problem‑solving and analytical thinking.
Excellent communication and collaboration skills.
Ability to operate effectively in a fast‑paced, cross‑functional environment.
Commitment to patient safety, product quality, and regulatory compliance.
Strategic and systems‑level thinking.
Your Background Required Competencies
Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical, Electrical, Biomedical, or related Engineering discipline.
8+ years of engineering experience in the medical device or other regulated industry.
Proven track record of leading technical projects through full product lifecycle.
Strong understanding of design controls, risk management, and regulatory compliance (FDA, ISO 13485, ISO 14971).
Proficiency with CAD, FEA, or equivalent engineering design and analysis tools.
