True to the vision “We drive innovation to improve people’s lives”, the Hamilton companies have been providing solutions for the health sector since 1950. We are an innovative pioneer in the fields of ventilators, automated pipetting, sample management and in the development of process sensors.

Hamilton Medical is a leading manufacturer of intelligent ventilators. Whether in ICUs, during emergency rescue transport or an MRI scan – our solutions cover a multitude of patient groups, applications and environments.

How you can make a difference:

As a medical research engineer in our team, you will be part of an interdisciplinary research and development team working on the challenges of tomorrow's mechanical ventilation.

You will work with engineers, scientists, and physicians to design, test, and validate innovative physiological closed-loop control systems for automated mechanical ventilation.

You will be responsible for incrementally developing a model-based simulation environment to objectively assess controller performances. Additionally, you will be responsible for test-driven development of innovative physiological closed-loop controllers. You will then be involved in testing and validating these controllers, initially in a testing environment and later in a clinical environment as part of a clinical study.

That’s what you bring along:

To be considered for the role, you must have the following qualifications and experience:

• A university degree in systems-, control- or biomedical engineering, or in a closely related field

• A PhD or at least three years of working experience in a relevant field

• Well-founded programming skills in MATLAB and Simulink

• Programming skills in C/C++ or similar languages

• Independent, solution-oriented, and methodical way of working

• Fluency in English

Additionally, you will have an advantage if you have any of the following qualifications or experience:

• Knowledge of control theory

• Experience in developing various types of controllers (such as PID, fuzzy, adaptive, predictive controllers, etc.)

• A high level of independence in problem solving

• Experience in data acquisition and processing

• Research or development experience in mechanical ventilation or medical devices

• Experience in conducting or participating in clinical studies

• Knowledge of medicine, respiratory physiology and/or mechanical ventilation

• German language skills
