Job Description:
The Senior Engineer will play a leading role in the development
of next-generation brain-interfacing implantable devices. The
incumbent will join an interdisciplinary team led by an
industry-seasoned medical device engineer, Dr. Peng Cong, launching
a new technology development group at UCSF in collaboration with
neurosurgeon and neuroscience researcher Dr. Edward Chang. Primary
responsibilities include the provision of mechanical design and
materials expertise while working with cross-functional teams to
define mechanical specifications based on system-level requirements
and tradeoffs. In this role, the Engineer will design mechanical
aspects of leads, packaging, and/or surgical tools for
neuromodulation devices. The scope will extend to prototyping of
mechanical designs, including integration with a variety of
electronic components, using in-house tools or through engagements
with vendors.--Work within this position will include the creation,
control and storage of engineering drawings (CAD, SLDWKs, ProE,
etc.); mechanical design verification per medical device standards;
and performing failure analysis of mechanical aspects of device
designs during evaluation.
PhD in Mechanical Engineering and professional lead-level
experience on medical device/ implant projects strongly
preferred.
The projects under development will include neuromodulatory device
technology to address severe neurological disorders, with design
directly informed by ongoing advanced clinical studies at UCSF. The
incumbent will join and contribute to a lively and engaged research
community at UCSF and UC Berkeley focused on the development of
safe brain-interfacing interventions for a range of major clinical
challenges, including neuropsychiatric disorders, epilepsy,
movement disorders, stroke/paralysis and impaired
communication/locked-in syndrome.
The Department of Neurological Surgery at UCSF School of Medicine
is home to leading physicians and scientists dedicated to treating
patients with surgically addressable neurological disorders
including epilepsy, Parkinson---s disease, pain, spinal cord
injury, tumors and brain trauma. The department integrates vibrant
clinical, research and training programs. The Engineer will work
under the supervision of Dr. Cong and in close collaboration with
Dr. Chang and his laboratory. Dr. Chang---s research encompasses
programs in multiple areas of leading-edge neurological science,
undertaken by a large team including physician-scientists,
postdoctoral scholars, graduate students, engineers, and clinical
research coordinators.--Projects are further enabled by a team of
experienced professional researchers and project management
personnel.--
