Job ID: 25-08735
Job Title:             Scientist/Medical Device Testing
Duration:            12 months, 40 hrs / week
Location:             Rahway, NJ
Qualifications:
Education Requirement (minimum):
- B.S., M.S. or Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering or equivalent field is required.

Required Experience and Skills:
- A minimum of M.S., or B.S. plus 1-3 years of design, engineering, and mechanical testing/test method development experience.
- Exceptional mechanical testing and troubleshooting skills able to work independently in a laboratory setting.
- Experience training junior staff on instrumentation operation and data analysis/interpretation best practices.
- Deep technical understanding of test method development and qualification/validation techniques.
- Fluency with mechanical testing, imaging, and measurement equipment and techniques. Including, but not limited to, force/tension/compression testing, rheometry, and microscopy.
- Excellent collaboration, ideation, and prototyping skills, including fixture development for functional testing.

Scientist, Device and Combination Product Test
• Team is seeking a hands-on/ lab-focused Scientist focused on the characterization and testing of devices (components, sub-assemblies, and full devices) and combination products (drug-delivery products).
• This position will be responsible for technical interrogation of the various drug delivery device technology platforms supporting Client's pipeline to identify risks (i.e. when/why/how will the device fail) and opportunities for improvement.
• They will utilize a wide variety of cutting-edge analytical instruments, methods, and extensive data analysis/interpretation to build fundamental understanding of the device's material and functional properties and attributes.
• Many of the drug delivery device technology platforms are often assemblages of injection molded plastic components driving delivery of a drug, typically though mechanical (i.e. compress/torsion spring, compressed gas) or electro-mechanical (i.e. DC motor and battery driving a gearbox) means. Examples include, but not limited to, injector pens, on-body injectors, and inhalers. At this early stage of evaluation material is often limited and will demand creative approaches.
