Senior Engineering Technician

Senior Engineering Technician Overview

We are seeking a hands-on Senior Engineering Technician to join a cutting-edge team focused on developing next-generation DNA sequencing technology. This position is perfect for individuals who thrive on building, troubleshooting, and enhancing complex systems rather than merely designing them. The role will be based in a regulated ISO 13485 environment, directly contributing to scientific innovation.

Key Responsibilities

• Constructing, assembling, and deploying research and development instrumentation, including fluidics, pumps, sensors, and actuators.
• Diagnosing faults and enhancing the performance and reliability of systems.
• Assisting in the development of prototypes, which includes mechanical assembly and testing setups.
• Conducting preventive maintenance and tracking faults on devices, rigs, and fixtures.
• Collaborating closely with engineers and scientists to support ongoing research and development projects.
• Creating and updating technical documentation such as standard operating procedures, work instructions, and reports.
• Managing inventory of parts and components to facilitate build activities.
• Interfacing with software-controlled systems during testing and operational phases.
• Performing repetitive assembly and testing tasks with precision and consistency.

Qualifications

• Proven experience as an Engineering Technician in medical devices, diagnostics, or a similar regulated field.
• Strong practical skills in building and maintaining complex electromechanical systems.
• Demonstrated ability in fault finding, troubleshooting, and optimizing devices.
• Experience with soldering, wiring, and integrating sensors.
• Familiarity with prototyping methods such as 3D printing, laser cutting, and CNC machining.
• Basic knowledge of CAD software, preferably SolidWorks.
• Experience working within a regulated quality management system environment, such as ISO 13485.
• High attention to detail and the ability to work independently.
• Desirable: Experience with fluidics, pneumatics, or laboratory instrumentation.
• Desirable: Understanding of electrical circuit design.

Benefits

• Opportunity to work on innovative DNA sequencing technology.
• Engagement in a highly collaborative research and development environment.
• Hands-on involvement in creating real-world healthcare solutions.
