Life Unlimited.
At Smith+Nephew, we design and manufacture technology that takes the limits off living!
Every lifecycle has a start point, and Smith+Nephew's wound products are no different. To bring a new product to market, there are many, many stages of testing, verification and validation to consider, and that comes after a concept is in place.
This opportunity could offer someone early in their career an opportunity in industry. A graduate who has come through an Engineering or Scientific field involving testing and validating designs and development methods.
What will you be doing?
This role will support our R&D teams through the development services programme, organising experiments and tests that will help us test and validate components, products and processes. To do this, prototypes, laboratory tests and test rigs will help validate and verify the design and methods as a design history file is built and evidence is detailed and proved.
What does success look like?
Success in the role will require collaborative efforts from others inside and outside of R&D, who will help craft testing methods and ultimately products that are not just efficient to manufacture but commercially viable. More importantly, it should keep our customers firmly in centre of everything we do.
Successful candidates would need the following:
1. Degree in a core STEM subject preferably in Engineering or another Scientific area
2. An understanding of how products are developed, tested, verified and validated
