GENERAL DESCRIPTION:

You will be joining Stryker Endoscopy’s Test team. We partner closely with R&D to experiment with early prototypes and vet out product designs throughout the design process. What this really means, is we get to be the Mythbusters of our division. Just like the show, we quickly design and build fixtures to simulate real life situations. This experimentation is mission critical so we find the issues when we can solve them and prevent them from impacting our customers and ultimately patients. You will directly be making healthcare better.

In addition to this hands-on experimentation, you will also be responsible for design verification for a subset of the product: from creating initial test plans through test reports that are included in regulatory submissions.  Communication and coordination are essential skills as you will share and/or coordinate samples, test execution, test results, and timelines with a cross-functional project team.

Our experience ranges from <1 year to 35+ with technical specialties including sterilization reliability, mechanical, electrical, software, and optics. We are often described as hard-working, analytical, and collaborative by our cross-functional partners. If this sounds like you and you have the magic ability to break things – we want you!

REQUIRED QUALIFICATIONS & SKILLS:

• Bachelor’s degree (B.S.) in Electrical, Computer, or Biomedical Engineering

• Excellent analytical skills

• Demonstrated electrical problem-solving skills

• Exhibit initiative, dependability, independence, motivation, and be detail-oriented

• Cumulative 3.0 GPA or above; must be the case at the date of hire and also will be verified during background check in the spring​
