The Role
This is a genuine launchpad role for someone who has just completed their degree and is ready to apply their studio and studies experience to real, market-released medical products.
You will work directly alongside our Managing Director, assisting in the design, development and improvement of innovative medical devices.
You will support current product development and existing product improvement projects across all phases — from concept or improvement brief through to a validated, market-ready product that complies with TGA requirements and the EU MDR.
This role offers exceptional exposure to medical device engineering in a fast-paced, innovation-driven environment, with direct mentorship and hands‐on guidance from senior leadership, while you build competency across product design, manufacturing improvement, project support and regulatory compliance — no prior industry experience required,



just a strong design and engineering foundation and the drive to learn fast.
Key Responsibilities
Assist in new product development projects across all phases — concept, design, prototyping, validation, transfer to production and release.
Support the design, development and manufacturability of products in accordance with the company's Quality Manual and Design Standard Operating Procedures.
Create CAD drawings of proposed medical product designs using Solid Works.
Assist in building and testing prototypes to address a market need, helping validate function and suggesting design modifications to meet specific market needs.
Support reviews of existing products and components, helping identify design, material and process improvements that enhance production efficiency, waste reduction, aesthetics, cost or compliance.
Attend R&D; meetings, help maintain meeting minutes, and support assigned projects — tracking timelines, milestones and the product action items register alongside senior engineers.
Assist in creating and maintaining Design History Files and Device Technical Files in accordance with ISO *****, TGA requirements and the EU MDR.
Participate in change management activities, helping raise change reports for any change to product design, materials, manufacturing processes or controlled documentation.
