• Take ownership of assigned projects, managing timelines, budgets, and resources effectively.
• Remain on the forefront of emerging industry practices
• Work closely with the Customer/Legal Manufacturer and/or Internal resources to execute high-precision braiding operations using Nitinol wire and polymer filaments, ensuring all products meet established engineering drawings and performance specifications.
• Contribute to process development, prototyping, and testing under minimal supervision
• Carry out process development, validation (IQ/OQ/PQ), and risk management activities (e.g. pFMEA)
• Develop prototypes which are consistent with the customers’ clinical and design requirements
• Develop test method designs and support execution of test method validation
• Stay abreast of emerging developments in Nitinol processing, braiding technologies, and evolving ISO/FDA regulatory standards to ensure the continuous improvement of manufacturing practices.
