Senior Designer, Engineering

At Edwards, we put patients first. We invest a significant proportion of our revenue towards research and development to drive and develop groundbreaking medical innovations for structural heart disease. As part of our R&D Engineering team, the   Senior Designer, Engineering   will work closely with our Quality and Manufacturing teams to develop the latest tools and technologies to address significant, unmet clinical needs that impact patients’ lives around the world.    Aortic stenosis and aortic regurgitation impact millions of people globally, yet these conditions often remain under-diagnosed and under-treated. Edwards' groundbreaking work in transcatheter aortic heart valve replacement (TAVR) pioneered an innovative, life-changing solution for patients by offering heart valve replacement without the need for open heart surgery. Today, our Transcatheter Heart Valve (THV) business unit continues to pioneer next-generation innovations for patients with both aortic stenosis (AS) and aortic regurgitation (AR). We bring together Clinical Affairs, Engineering, and Research professionals who partner with cardiologists and clinical teams to design and develop minimally invasive therapies supported by clinical evidence, transforming cardiovascular care and addressing unmet patient needs in structural heart disease. It's our driving force to help patients live longer, healthier lives. Join us and be part of our inspiring journey. How you'll make an impact: Creating new complex product designs utilizing parametric solid modeling software or applications to develop basic data, complex assemblies and detailed parts of devices, mechanisms, and structures, assess viability of engineering specifications/concepts including advising engineers on suggested revisions on designs. Designing more complex products, incorporating ease of manufacturing, safety, performance, and reliability; and selecting equipment and materials, contractual specification requirements and cost; including recommending alternates and solutions needed to achieve the intended design objective. Identifying design errors, omissions, and other deficiencies, and recommending revisions and/or improvements in design layout to responsible engineers or designers throughout the validation process including redline reviews. Process Engineering Change Requests (ECR) including describing changes and providing corresponding technical justification; checking completed layouts and drawings for clarity, completeness, conformity to standards, procedures, specifications; and accuracy of calculations and dimensioning and notes necessary to present design proposals. Participating in implementing new processes, methods, and design products in collaboration with Engineering. Developing presentations and presenting proposal on designs across internal and external functions to secure consensus on the design viability and functionality. Consulting with and providing input to Engineers on Edwards drawing standards and CAD tools, maintaining integrity of the CAD PDM (Product Data Management) modeling software. Performing more complex tolerance analysis. ​ What you'll need (Required): High School Diploma or equivalent with 10 years of related experience CAD Certification or related program certification  What else we look for (Preferred): Bachelor's degree or associate degree in engineering or a CAD/design-related field Proven expertise in plastic injected molded part design for both prototype and production phases.
