Paradromics develops the Connexus high-data-rate implantable brain-computer interface to restore communication for people with severe paralysis.

About the role

This role owns the mechanical development of the next-generation implantable Internal Transceiver, taking the device from concept through design maturity and manufacturing readiness, working closely with process, test, quality, regulatory and suppliers.

What you will do

• Own the mechanical architecture and detailed design of the implantable transceiver, including housing, internal packaging, interfaces and critical components.
• Write testable mechanical requirements and design inputs covering performance, reliability, interfaces and physical characteristics.
• Plan and run mechanical characterisation and verification tests, including fixtures, protocols and data analysis.
• Investigate mechanical design and reliability failures, implement design changes and confirm fixes through testing.
• Develop, optimise and troubleshoot the manufacturing processes needed to build the mechanical assembly consistently.
• Support design controls, including requirements, risk management, verification and design history file documentation.

What they are looking for

• A bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or a related field.
• Proven experience developing complex mechanical medical devices from concept to design maturity.
• Strong fundamentals in GD&T, tolerance analysis, materials, mechanical interfaces and design for manufacturability.
• Advanced SolidWorks skills including complex assemblies and detailed drawings.
• Experience working under medical device design controls.
• Preferred: active implantable devices, hermetic packaging, titanium housings, ceramics, feedthroughs, brazing and laser welding, and accelerated life testing.
