About The Role

As a Systems Engineer at CDP you will work within a multidisciplinary team of researchers, designers, engineers and scientists to develop healthcare products that make a difference. You will be responsible for the design, realisation and technical management of innovative complex systems for our medical device and drug delivery clients. You will be expected to draw upon your past product development experience, from relevant industry areas, and combine this with specific Systems Engineering know-how and skills to effectively deliver projects and products. 

Away from project delivery, you may also be involved in business development activities as a technical lead, helping to write proposals and supporting client management. You will also have a keen interest help grow and develop the systems engineering capability within CDP.

• Technically manage an end-to-end product development process.
• Support the project management function in planning technical activities.
• Clearly define the scope and purpose and intended behaviour of the product-system being developed.
• Work with stakeholders and researchers to elicit and define user needs, goals and expectations.
• Transforming user needs into a measurable set of technical requirements, and manage them throughout the development process.
• Model, and evaluate different architectures and technologies.
• Define interfaces and allocate requirements to subsystem teams.
• Manage and run structured design reviews.
• Manage product integration activities, coordinating with the multidisciplinary team, such that components and subsystems are ready for integration at the appropriate point in the project. 
• Develop verification strategies and plans.
• Manage and undertake test method development and subsequent test method validation.
• Develop validation strategies and plans.
• Manage an integrated risk management process throughout the development process.
