Senior NPI Engineer – New Product Introduction
Shape the Future of Mechanical Circulatory Support
Join Abbott's Heart Failure business and play a key role in bringing the next generation of the CentriMag™ Circulatory Support System from development into global manufacturing.
As a Senior NPI Engineer, you will lead the industrialization, validation, and manufacturing scale-up of complex electromechanical medical devices that directly support critically ill cardiac patients. This is a highly visible role with the opportunity to influence product design, manufacturing strategy, supplier readiness, and production ramp-up from early development through commercial launch.
A unique aspect of this position is the close collaboration between our teams in Zurich, Switzerland and Pleasanton, California. Working as part of a highly integrated global organization, you will partner with experts across R&D, Quality, Regulatory, Operations, and Supplier Engineering to bring innovative technologies to market.
If you enjoy solving complex technical challenges, working hands-on with manufacturing processes, and turning innovative concepts into scalable products that improve patients' lives, we'd love to hear from you.
