Medtronic pioneered the field of Neuromodulation with the first commercially available Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) to treat chronic pain and engineered the first deep brain stimulation (DBS) system to treat disorders such as Parkinson's disease. We have gone on to develop the first implantable drug pump for the delivery of medication directly to the intrathecal space of the spine, inventing the first balloon kyphoplasty devices for the treatment of vertebral compression fractures and developing RF ablation systems to treat spinal tumors.
Within the R&D Department at Medtronic Neuromodulation, one key area of focus for reducing pain for patients is Interventional Pain. Interventional Pain develops minimally invasive therapies that treat musculoskeletal pathologies such as vertebral compression fractures, nerve pain, metastatic and benign bone tumors. The employee will be part of a team that defines, develops and tests new products for the Neuromodulation business.
The position responsibilities will focus on design and development of new products to compliment the Interventional Pain portfolio. This role is critical in the development of new designs and concepts for tooling, fixtures, individual components and assemblies. They will be responsible for providing technical expertise to advance existing technologies or introduce new technologies to market. Majority of the time will be spent delivering R&D systems or initiatives related to new technologies or therapies - from design to implementation - while adhering to policies, using specialized knowledge and skills. Candidates should have demonstrated ability to execute independently after receiving high level scope and constraints.
Employee responsibilities may include the following:
Design, develop, analyze, troubleshoot and provide technical expertise during research and/or product development of mechanical systems
Generate product requirements by translating market research and user needs to engineering specifications
Ensure the logical and systematic conversion of product requirements into total systems solutions that acknowledge technical, schedule, and cost constraints
Contribute to the development of design solutions that address broad development constraints involving surgical class II devices and accessories
Design mechanical assemblies as part of a larger procedural system
Design and source actuated assemblies, tooling, fixtures and early product protypes
Provide direction and be accountable for deliverables from external suppliers and vendors
Support the maintenance of commercially released products on an as needed basis
Support the introduction, implementation of product, process, materials changes to manufacturing
Participate in sourcing, testing and approving materials for use in development and end product
Generate test methods to verify and validate design inputs
Lead design and technical reviews with cross-functional partners
Effectively communicate and present technical concepts cross-functionally
Coach and guide junior engineers or technicians working on the projects

To be considered for this role, please ensure the minimum requirements are evident on your resume.
Bachelor's degree in engineering or scientific discipline and 4+ years experience in technical testing or engineering experience OR Advanced Degree in engineering or scientific discipline and 2+ years experience in technical testing or engineering experience.
Experience generating system requirements for mechanical designs.
Experience with machining and material selection for rapid prototyping.
Knowledge of Design for Manufacturing.
Experience with plastics manufacturing processes (such as molding and/or extrusions).
Knowledge of mechanism, actuators and sensors
Dynamic team player who can work effectively and proactively on cross-functional teams.
Ability to clearly document work, articulate and present ideas and tests results to a variety of audiences.
Desired/Preferred qualifications
