Biomechanics Engineer | Medical&Prosthetics Design
Our organization is at the forefront of biomechanical innovation, dedicated to enhancing human life through superior engineering. We foster a culture of collaboration and scientific curiosity, empowering our engineers to solve complex challenges in orthopedics, rehabilitation, and sports science. By joining us, you become part of a dynamic team committed to developing next-generation technologies that redefine the boundaries of medical treatment and human potential.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the conceptualization and detailed design of novel orthopedic implants, prosthetic devices, and rehabilitation equipment using SolidWorks or similar CAD software.
- Perform advanced finite element analysis (FEA) on biological materials and medical device interactions using Abaqus to predict performance, stress, and durability.
- Analyze complex human motion and kinematics using data from motion capture systems (e.g., Vicon) and force plates to understand injury mechanisms and evaluate device efficacy.
- Develop and execute comprehensive verification and validation (V&V) test protocols for biomechanical systems, ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulatory requirements.
- Create sophisticated computational models of biological tissues and systems in MATLAB to simulate physiological responses and device performance under various conditions.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams—including materials scientists, clinicians, and manufacturing engineers—to translate design concepts into market-ready products.
- Author detailed technical documentation, including design specifications, test reports, and regulatory submission files in accordance with FDA guidelines (e.g., 21 CFR 820).
Required Qualifications & Skills
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or a closely related discipline. A Ph.D. is highly advantageous.
- Demonstrated experience in the design and development of medical devices, particularly in orthopedics, prosthetics, or rehabilitation.
- Expert-level proficiency in 3D CAD modeling, specifically with SolidWorks, and generating manufacturing drawings with GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing).
- Strong practical and theoretical foundation in finite element analysis (FEA), with hands-on experience using Abaqus or ANSYS for non-linear materials and contact analysis.
- Competency in programming and data analysis using MATLAB for signal processing, system modeling, and statistical analysis.
- An in-depth understanding of core biomechanics principles, human anatomy, physiology, and the mechanical properties of biomaterials.
- Familiarity with medical device design controls and regulatory pathways, including FDA Quality System Regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and ISO 13485 standards.
