The Mechanical/Assembly Engineering Team within Global Operations and Technology which supports the development of transformative integrated medical products. These products span from medical imaging, wearable sensing, in vitro diagnostics, and other high value applications.  As our products evolve beyond integrated circuits into full-system medical solutions, this role will provide distinguished technical leadership to strengthen existing capabilities and develop new competencies in medical-grade mechanical design, assembly engineering, process development, prototyping, manufacturing, and qualification in close partnership with our Business Units.

The successful candidate will have a history of designing and bringing differentiated products to market within the medical device industry. Experience in mechanical construction, board-level and subsystem- level mechanical design, as well as a strong understanding of microelectronic/electronic assembly, is highly desired.  Experience managing outsourcing partners to support the product development process, as well as bringing up the manufacturing process through qualification and commercialization is required. This candidate must be energetic, collaborative, proactive, and able to multitask effectively.

Responsibilities

The successful candidate will:

• Work independently with minimal supervision in engineering and product development environments.
• Work with industrial designers, system architects, marketing engineers, and customers to understand product requirements and best practices.
• Have experience with medical device construction techniques including printed circuit assembly, plastics and higher-level device assembly.
• Have knowledge of and the ability to leverage existing, medically proven state-of-the-art technologies when possible.
• Translate requirements into innovative, differentiated, and manufacturable design concepts in accordance with DFM practices.
• Lead mechanical design reviews, FMEAs, and technical trade-off discussions with stakeholders from other disciplines such as systems, electrical, packaging, reliability, and assembly engineering.
• Help secure design wins via the development of Minimum Viable Products (MVPs).
• Collaborate with ADI’s Global Operations organization to establish manufacturing guidelines and requirements to convert MVPs into commercial products.
• Apply a thorough understanding of verification and validation to demonstrate fulfillment of mechanical requirements.
• Ensure that task execution complies with product development requirements in a regulated sector.
