Your responsibilities:
1. Address product care topics within our in-house Sensor Production, including handling production issues (deviations, root cause & risk analysis) and product care topics (customer complaint investigations, material, and design changes).
2. Implement changes derived from fundamental principles, experimental data, and simulation models, and help integrate them into new and existing products.
3. Independently plan, execute, evaluate results, and document your work across development, product care, and operations support.
4. Test and analyze sensor designs in the lab using various characterization methods (e.g., electrochemical analysis methods, IR, SEM, Rheometer & etc.).
5. Work independently within a multidisciplinary team by planning projects/work packages, conducting investigations, and generating required data and documentation.
6. Take responsibility for equipment and develop new tools, methods, and processes to evaluate our sensors.
7. Support the team with scientific expertise and practical knowledge to understand and solve technical questions arising in the development and production of complex electrochemical sensors and electrodes.
8. Interact across the business with quality, operation, V&V, and business to support and coordinate design and material changes.
9. Support sensor development activities in new development projects, depending on project needs and product care situation.
Your background:
10. Higher technical education (master's from FH/University/ETH) in chemistry/physics/material science /(electrical) engineering or Bachelor's degree with more than 3 years of industry experience
11. Understanding of materials (glasses, metals, polymers, and other chemicals) and their interactions with sensors and biological samples
12. Interest and dedication to study, test, and improve electrochemical/optical (bio)sensors and learn to understand their behavior and associated material properties
13. Experience working in a highly regulated environment
14. Experience with the development of new characterization methods and the implementation of them in test methods, setups, or tools
15. Ability to acquire, process, and analyze data with appropriate tools (Matlab, Excel, MiniTab, R, Python)
16. Experience in different electrochemical methods (potentiometry, impedance spectroscopy, etc) is of advantage, as well as broader physical and chemical analysis, with motivation to use and improve these skills in the laboratory
