Job Summary

We are seeking a Micro Assembly Engineer to join our R&D and manufacturing team. In this role, you are responsible for developing, optimizing and maintaining micro-scale assembly processes and equipment to support the production of precision sub millimeter dimension imaging catheters. There is opportunity to contribute to the development of new products, and an expectation to lead design changes for improved manufacturability, quality and cost of existing products. Key skills include using precision tools and microscopes, SolidWorks part and drawing changes, and adjusting processes for improved yields, quality and tact time. The engineer supports fixture maintenance to ensure minimal downtime and optimal performance. The ideal candidate is a hands-on creative problem-solver with strong root cause analysis skills from knowing the assembly first hand. This position is team-oriented and collaborative. This position offers opportunities for equity participation, competitive benefits, and professional growth in a dynamic healthcare-focused environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Design and develop manufacturing fixtures, jigs, and tooling to ensure efficient, repeatable production of micro-scale components and subassemblies using precision tools, microscopic video displays, and microscopes.
• Create and optimize manufacturing processes that support the use of the above custom tooling as well as the use of micro laser welding, fiber splicing and UV gluing manufacturing.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams (e.g., R&D, quality assurance, and production) to iterate designs, troubleshoot issues, and implement improvements.
• Provide peer review of new medical device designs, including biopsy tools, from concept through prototyping, reviewing compliance with regulatory standards and user needs.
• May perform mechanical analysis, simulations, and testing to validate designs for functionality, durability, and safety.
• Author or conduct verification efforts for manufacturing process changes.
• Generate technical documentation, including drawings, specifications, and reports, to support product development and manufacturing transitions to design freeze and scale up.
• Stay abreast of industry trends and incorporate innovative solutions to enhance product performance, lower costs and improve manufacturability.
