👩💻 Your Impact

As Design Engineer, you will design and develop new medical devices from first concept through to final, manufacturable designs, making sure every product is safe, effective, and built to the standards the people who rely on them can trust. Working in SolidWorks, you will bring designs to life in 3D, oversee the manufacture of prototypes, and collaborate across the team on usability and safety testing.

This is a role where careful engineering shapes real outcomes. As ViCentra scales, you will help turn concepts into dependable products, documenting each phase, guiding production, and solving the hands-on challenges that stand between a promising idea and a device people can count on.
