Senior R&D Engineer

Anteris® Technologies is a global structural heart company dedicated to revolutionizing cardiac care. With offices in Minneapolis, MN, US; Geneva, Switzerland; and Brisbane and Perth, Australia, we have a growing and inclusive team. Our mission is to forge new frontiers in cardiac care by pioneering science-driven and measurable advancements to restore heart valve patients to healthy function. Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) technologies were originally designed for older, high-risk patients. Today, younger, more active patients need a better solution that will not just open and close but restore healthy heart function. We seek to restore healthy blood flow patterns by creating the world’s first biomimetic TAVR valve, DurAVR® THV. This cutting-edge valve, incorporating our proprietary ADAPT® anti-calcification technology, is designed to mimic the natural function of a healthy heart valve. We are seeking an experienced Research and Development Engineer with deep medical device development expertise to participate in design activities across multiple structural heart programs. This role requires strong technical design capability and independence to advance a novel heart valve repair system from concept through commercialization. The successful candidate will collaborate effectively across engineering, clinical, regulatory, and executive teams while driving innovative solutions in the structural heart space. At Anteris Technologies, you’ll join a mission-driven team dedicated to improving the lives of patients with aortic stenosis through breakthrough structural heart technologies — and help build the organizational foundation supporting that impact. Primary Responsibilities Characterize device-tissue interactions through the analysis of clinical/pre-clinical imaging datasets and benchtop data using both commercial and internally developed software packages. Lead R&D efforts in understanding the anatomical and physiological landscape a TAVR system interacts with through implantation and the product life cycle. Support the design and development of a TAVR system through innovative, agile and objective design processes. Develop comprehensive TAVR system test plans by defining clinically relevant boundary conditions and test parameters that support design verification and comply with applicable FDA, ISO, and other regulatory requirements. Collaborate with cross-functional partners across R&D, Clinical, and Regulatory to align project objectives with design improvements and clinical outcome goals. Utilize SolidWorks and other engineering tools to design and develop prototypes, and components for TAVR device design and development. Support and communicate decisions through thorough engineering practices and data analysis. Provide guidance and mentorship to junior engineers and team members, contributing to their professional development. Required Degree And Experience PhD in Engineering, Physical Science or related discipline. Master's degree in Engineering, Physical Science, or related discipline with 2+ years of relevant experience. Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Physical Science, or related discipline with 4+ years of relevant experience. 8+ years experience in medical device product design and development. Required Skills And Knowledge Experience using DICOM analysis software such as Materialise Mimics or 3D Slicer. Strong understanding of cardiovascular anatomy and physiology. Experience designing and developing mechanical assemblies, preferably related to Class III medical devices. Competency in 3D modeling software, i.e. SolidWorks and/or Creo. Strong understanding of engineering principles/methodologies and relevant standards/directives, specifically ISO 5840. Experience using statistical analysis software to analyse and prepare test data for regulatory review (e.g. Minitab, JMP). Experience creating technical, written content.
