Description:
Senior Scientist (Hybrid) Job Description Summary The Senior Scientist will be part of a multi-disciplinary Innovation team that is developing a variety of medical technologies and solutions with an initial focus on surgical and interventional devices. This is a technical position where the scientist will contribute significantly to exciting, high visibility projects and collaborations across the R&D portfolio. This position will be responsible for the development and testing of new biomaterials and formulations for a range of medical devices, including surgical implants and drug-device combination products. The candidate is expected to design new chemical formulations and/or biomaterials (hydrogels, coatings, resorbable polymers, viscoelastic materials etc.), and develop test methods for characterizing their physicochemical properties and functional performance. These materials will be utilized for enabling controlled release of drugs, designing tissue engineered products, and modulating biomaterial-tissue interactions impacting the performance of medical devices. Additional duties involve characterization of materials using analytical instrumentation and assessment of functional performance both in-vitro and in-vivo.The Scientist must be able to effectively collaborate with team members from varying backgrounds and should have strong oral and written communication skills. The successful candidate will have an interest in technically contributing to areas beyond medical devices and drug delivery systems over time due to the dynamic nature of the Innovation team and its programs.
