We are committed to working with others to create consistent, high standards for cannabinoid quality, safety, and predictability. Our people are dedicated, experienced scientists and industry experts, all passionate about unlocking the medical and wellbeing potential of cannabinoids to improve patient and consumer lives.
About your role
You will
own the end‑to‑end technical product development
of our next‑generation medical e‑vapor device—repurposing proven consumer technology into a regulated, patient‑ready product.
Your role will set the technical direction, choose build‑vs‑partner paths, and lead cross‑functional teams across device engineering, aerosol science, consumables, and external partners to deliver measured, proven outcomes.
This role will be broad, but these are the core elements:
What you'll do:
* Lead device development
from concept through development, ensuring performance, safety, and usability meet patient and customer needs.
* Translate formulation–device interactions
into design requirements; optimize aerosol generation and delivery performance.
* Select and manage third‑party partners
where it accelerates innovation; drive make/buy recommendations with clear success criteria.
* Guide evidence generation
(bench to concept testing); bring consumer insight and design thinking into a medical device context.
* Contribute to IP strategy
—assess external patents and surface internal invention opportunities.
* Plan for manufacturability and cost
early; provide robust cost estimates to inform business decisions.
* Collaborate across specialties
(e.g., aerosol science, consumables, modelling/CFD/FEA, quality and regulatory) to de‑risk and deliver.
* Operate within a
medical‑device quality mindset
(e.g., ISO 13485/design controls familiarity) in partnership with Quality & RA.
Does this sound like you?
* 10+ years in R&D
with significant experience leading technical product development of
inhalation devices
and/or closely related consumer devices.
* A
systems-level view
of device development, with an understanding of how different components combine to create a successful product.
* Proven ability to
bridge formulation and device
—understanding how formulations impact device performance.
* Experience collaborating with
external partners
and influencing multi‑disciplinary stakeholders without direct line authority.
* Exposure to
regulatory guidance
for inhalation/medical devices and familiarity with
design‑control disciplines
(risk management, V&V, human‑factors inputs).
* Desirable: experience with
CFD/FEA modelling
; background in
cannabinoid‑based formulations
or consumer‑to‑medical product transitions.
