Serve as the primary process engineering owner for a fast‑moving clinical build program within EP
Lead development and execution of manufacturing processes for Nitinol components supporting FIH readiness
Perform hands‑on lab work including:
Heat setting and shape‑set tooling setup
Tooling iteration and optimization
Component measurement and evaluation
Partner closely with R&D and design engineering to influence design and specification decisions with manufacturability and future scale in mind
Lead or heavily influence early‑phase tooling design, including coordination with internal teams and external vendors
Manage tooling and component iterations to support delivery of 50 components per week / 200 per month
Deliver:
Clinical‑ready components
Tooling designs and/or finished tooling
Process documentation supporting clinical manufacturing
Document process parameters, assumptions, and rationale in alignment with regulated development practices
