Job description
Every minute matters in stroke treatment. Magnendo is developing robotic technology to make life-saving endovascular procedures faster, safer, and more accessible. By combining advanced robotics, magnetic navigation, and intelligent software, we are tackling one of the most technically demanding challenges in healthcare while aiming to expand access to advanced stroke care for patients around the world. Join us in shaping the future of endovascular intervention.
We are looking for a Principal Process Development Engineer to lead the supplier-facing process development and manufacturing-transfer strategy forMagnendo’sproprietarymagnetically deflectable guidewiresandmanufacturing supply chain.
You Will:
Lead the supplier-facing process development and manufacturing-transfer strategy forMagnendo’sproprietary polymer andguidewire manufacturing supply chain.
Translateprototype-process learning into supplier-ready material specifications, process specifications, inspection methods, test methods, and manufacturing-transfer packages
Translate R&D formulations, prototype builds, and early process knowledge into a robust, scalable, supplier-enabled manufacturing path forMagnendo’sproprietary magneticpolymersand steerable guidewires
Lead the process-development and manufacturing-transferstrategy,from prototype-scale development through pilot production, design transfer, and commercial manufacturing readiness
Identify, evaluate, select, qualify, and develop the external suppliers, including compounders, additive-processing specialists, extrusion houses, catheter and guidewire contract manufacturers, coating suppliers, sterilization vendors, analytical laboratories, and specialty wire andcomponentsuppliers
Work with the QA team to define supplier requirements, process controls, validation strategies, and transfer plans, includingTMV,IQ/OQ/PQ,control plans, incoming and in-process inspection, lot-release testing, and process-capability targets
Anticipate technical, quality, supplier, and scale-up risks; develop practical alternatives and mitigation plans; and drive issues to resolution before they become program risks
You Are:
An experienced engineer with10+ years of experience in medical-device process development, supplier development, manufacturing engineering, polymer processing, catheter or guidewire manufacturing, or related interventional-device manufacturing
Experienced in the development, outsourcing, manufacturing, and regulated transfer of interventional medical devices, preferably neurovascular devices
Experienced translating novel polymer-based technologies from R&D prototypes into supplier-controlled manufacturing processes
Successful in transferring interventional medical devices, novel materials, polymer-based components, catheter or guidewire components, or other complex medical-device technologies into manufacturing and through FDA-cleared or FDA-approved product development
Proactive, creative, and practical, with the ability toanticipateproblems, challenge assumptions, develop alternatives, and drive solutions across internal teams and external partners
Knowledgeable in medical-device manufacturing and design controls, including ISO 13485, 21 CFR Part 820, ISO 14971, verification and validation, sterilization, biocompatibility, and regulated manufacturing documentation
Experienced with medical-gradethermoplasticpolymersand knowledgeable in polymer compounding, additive treatment and dispersion, drying and material handling, extrusion, molding, bonding, and coating compatibility
Experienced selecting, qualifying, developing, and managing external suppliers or contract manufacturers for medical-device development and manufacturing programs
Completely familiar with, and able to deploy, Operational Excellence, Lean product and process development, design of experiments (DOE), root-cause analysis, or equivalent structured process-improvement methodologies
Experienced applying process-development and validation tools, including process characterization, pFMEA, control plans, TMV, IQ/OQ/PQ, process capability, incoming inspection, in-process inspection, and lot-release testing
Adaptable and comfortable contributing as the primary process-development and manufacturing-transfer expert within a small, fast-moving team, while recognizing when specialized external support is needed
An effective collaborator and communicator who thrives in an environment built on teamwork, transparency, accountability, and shared problem-solving
Bachelor’s degree in Polymer Science, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or a related technical field
Bonus Points:
Advanceddegreein Polymer Science, Materials Science, Chemical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field
Experience with additive-loaded, radiopaque, lubricious, magnetic, or otherwise functionalized polymer compounds
Experience developing polyurethane compoundscontainingmicron-scale powders or functional additives
Experience with neurovascular guidewires, catheters, or other highly specialized interventional devices
Experienceestablishingor scaling a supplier network for an early-stage medical-device company
