Senior Biomedical Engineer
Position Overview We are seeking a Senior Biomedical Engineer to lead design and development of minimally invasive therapeutic devices with a focus on catheter-based and ablation technologies. The role will drive R&D projects from concept through verification, validation, regulatory submission, and design transfer to manufacturing while supporting preclinical and clinical activities. The ideal candidate combines deep device engineering experience, hands-on prototyping and CAD skills, and demonstrated success navigating FDA regulatory pathways.
Come join a small, scrappy team that is building revolutionary medical device products. This is a hyrbid role in Emeryville (onsite Tue-Thurs).
Key Responsibilities - Lead end-to-end product development for catheter and ablation systems, including concept generation, detailed design, prototyping, and iterative refinement.
- Create and maintain CAD models and manufacturing-ready drawings using SolidWorks and other CAD tools; support rapid prototyping and bench testing.
- Plan, execute, and interpret engineering testing, design verification, and design validation activities; author and review test protocols and reports.
- Develop and maintain Design History Files (DHF) and ensure compliant documentation practices in accordance with QMS and ISO 13485 requirements.
- Prepare technical documentation for regulatory submissions (e.g., 510(k), PMA), interact with regulatory affairs to support FDA submissions and respond to agency questions.
- Lead design transfer and manufacturing handoff activities, working closely with manufacturing, quality, and suppliers to ensure smooth scale-up and product launch.
- Collaborate with preclinical and clinical teams to support animal studies and clinical trials, translating findings into design improvements.
- Perform risk management activities (e.g., FMEA) and implement mitigation strategies to meet safety and performance requirements.
- Mentor and coach junior engineers, foster cross-functional collaboration with R&D, regulatory, quality, and clinical teams, and contribute to project planning and scheduling.
- Stay current on industry trends and emerging technologies in thermal ablation, catheter design, and related fields to inform product strategy.
Qualifications
- Bachelor's degree in Biomedical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field required; Master's or PhD preferred.
- 7+ years of experience in medical device R&D, with a proven track record delivering catheter-based or ablation products to market.
- Hands-on experience with CAD (SolidWorks preferred), mechanical design, and rapid prototyping techniques.
- Proven expertise in engineering testing, design verification and validation, and test protocol development.
- Experience preparing regulatory submissions and working with the FDA; familiarity with 510(k) and/or PMA pathways.
- Experience creating and maintaining Design History Files (DHF), design control documentation, and participating in Design Transfer and manufacturing handoff.
- Background supporting preclinical trials and clinical trials for implantable or minimally invasive devices.
- Knowledge of thermal ablation technologies, catheter systems, and related materials/assembly processes.
- Strong problem-solving skills, excellent written and verbal communication, and the ability to lead cross-functional project teams.
