Senior Device Design Engineer

Every day, we rise to the challenge to make a difference and here’s how the Senior Device Design Engineer role will make an impact:

Ensure clear prioritisation of project deliverables in alignment with Viatris, Global R&D and GDD strategic objectives.

Drive a “right first time” approach to high-quality submissions, ensuring timely delivery of DHF documentation and submission packages while embedding continuous improvement to enhance content quality and reduce review cycle iterations.

Maintain full compliance with procedural standards and QMS training requirements, championing best practices in documentation management, traceability, a single source of truth, and secure handling of documents across internal and external stakeholders.

Possess a strong Design Engineering/Product Development background with a naturally inquisitive mindset focused on understanding problems deeply and developing effective, innovative solutions, translating stakeholder needs into design requirements and identifying technical challenges, risks and design optimisation opportunities.

Lead the development of combination products from concept through to design transfer, leveraging engineering analysis and problem-solving methodologies such as root cause analysis, hand calculations, CFD, FEA and tolerance analysis.

Demonstrate advanced proficiency in CAD design, including the creation of fully dimensioned 2D technical drawings and specifications, applying GD&T principles to ensure designs are robust, manufacturable and compliant with industry standards.

Develop and evaluate prototype components and devices through hands-on testing, functional verification and performance analysis, using data-driven insights to refine and improve designs.

Proactively identify, assess and mitigate technical risks in accordance with ISO 14971, ensuring appropriate risk controls are implemented and maintained throughout the product lifecycle, with a strong understanding of risk management techniques such as FMEA and FTA.

Represent the Device Design & Industrialisation function within cross-functional program teams, supporting effective planning and execution of design and development activities.
