Join Stryker OI
Who We Want
• Motivated product launchers. Engineers who bring strategic direction and drive for execution to ensure products are developed and launched with precision.
• Dedicated achievers. Relentless about quality, people who thrive in a fast-paced environment and will passionately work to ensure a project and product satisfies customer needs and meets regulations and expectations.
• Curious learners. Engineers who seek out practical methods and information to expand and enhance their ability.
• Collaborative partners. People who build and leverage cross-functional relationships to bring together ideas, information, use cases, and industry analyses to develop best practices.
What You Will Do
The engineering co-op will aid in the design, development, modification, and evaluation of medical devices that support our robotic and computer assisted product lines. This role is focused on new product development engineering; you will work collaboratively with customers, quality, sourcing and advanced operations partners to perform customer research, technology research, design, test, and documenting electrical components, architectures, systems, and products.
Primary Responsibilities:
• Assist with prototyping and bench testing.
• Support problem solving, identify potential solutions, and evaluate them against requirements.
• Under supervision, conduct research and studies to support product design.
• Assist in interpreting customer needs and understanding design inputs.
• Learn the product’s intended use and clinical procedures.
• With supervision, create or refine engineering documentation, such as the Design History file per company design control procedures.
• Learn R&D procedures like design controls and risk management, per the Quality Management System.
• Work cooperatively with R&D, Quality, Manufacturing, Regulatory, Clinical, Marketing and Project Management to ensure project success and contribute to the project as a team member.
Electrical Engineering Majors:
• Support creation of embedded systems requirements/architecture for new products leading to engineering PCB assembly board-spins/bring-ups and finally to a finished product.
• Through design process, will complete analysis for electromagnetic compliance (EMC), reliability, safety, cost, and design for manufacturing/assembly/test.
• Work with multiple technologies including voltage regulators, mixed analog/digital circuits, embedded microcontrollers/microprocessors, FPGA’s, motor controllers and sensors.
• Occasionally debug hardware using oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, and other hardware tools.
Software Engineering/Computer Science Majors:
• Support development of procedures and scripts for requirements-based testing of medical devices in accordance with internal software development lifecycle requirements in compliance with FDA software development guidance.
• Supports the research and design of machine learning frameworks and programs capable of adapting to the environment and data collected to produce intelligent outputs.
• Supports the design and testing of system applications and user interfaces.
Mechanical Engineering Majors:
• Under supervision, design, develop, modify, and verify mechanical components for medical devices.
• Assist with prototyping and bench testing.
• Support problem solving, root cause analysis, identify potential solutions, and evaluate them against requirements.
• Under supervision, conduct research and studies to support product design.
What You Need
• Currently pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in Electrical Engineering, Software Engineering, Computer Science, or related at Kettering University
• Cumulative 3.0 GPA or above; must be the case at the date of hire and also will be verified during background check
• Must be legally authorized to work in the U.S. and not require employment-based sponsorship now or in the future
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills
• Strong organizational, problem-solving, and analytical skills; able to manage priorities and workflow
• Proficient on basic computer programs: Microsoft Excel, Word, PowerPoint
• Strong interpersonal skills
• Electrical Engineering majors: Basic knowledge in electrical engineering (e.g. circuit design and analysis, benchtop testing methods, debugging skills, technical writing skills, etc)
• Software Engineering/Computer Science majors: Preferred knowledge in Matlab, C/C++/Phython, and interest in software testing
• Mechanical Engineering majors: Basic knowledge in 3D modeling software programs
