About the role

The Mechanical and Biomedical Engineering department is looking for an engineer with strong practical and analytical skills.  Working predominantly across healthcare projects, you will use your engineering skills at all stages of the development life-cycle.  You will take responsibility for design challenges and technical problems, participating in concept generation, research, design and testing.  

This role is for candidates who are due to graduate this summer and available to start between June - October 2025.

What you’ll be doing

You will work within a team of highly talented, multi-disciplinary engineers on major development projects, applying your practical and analytical abilities to realise novel medical technologies for our clients around the globe.

You will participate in projects covering all stages of the development life-cycle, applying novel technologies in the field of medical device development. You will have the opportunity to create exciting cutting-edge technology in areas such as diagnostics, drug delivery, surgical and acute care, synthetic biology and digital health.  

You will be using your strong technical and interpersonal skills to make a significant contribution to development projects, from initial concepts through to final delivery. This will include: 

  • Concept generation 
  • Analysis and development of engineering designs  
  • Rapid Prototyping 
  • Design and implementation of test rigs 
  • Design and execution of experimental test programmes 
  • Presenting results, both internally and to clients
