Description -
The * at HP Laboratories in Palo Alto, California, is seeking an outstanding Senior Hardware Engineer to join its elite R&D team working on breakthrough technologies in the life sciences and healthcare. The new engineer will work with a multidisciplinary team of physicists, mechanical engineers, material scientists, chemists and software engineers to drive innovation and progress in both engineering and molecular diagnostics assays. You will leverage your technical acumen, desire to learn, and hands-on capabilities to take concepts all the way from prototypes and testbeds to integration into the product. At the Palo Alto site, you will work have the freedom and creative license to take calculated technical risks that could lead to significant impacts across the organization.
In This Role You’ll Have The Opportunity To:
- Advance the design of microfluidic cartridges and instruments through experiments and modeling, while utilizing fundamental principles of fluid mechanics, heat transfer, and mechanical engineering.
- Design, set up, and execute experiments to assess and improve assay chemistries for diagnostic tests, using fundamental principles of physical chemistry and biochemistry.
- Interact with a larger multidisciplinary team comprising both engineers and scientists as well as marketing and executive teams.
- Design and build test rigs for evaluating engineering design and assay chemistry.
- Provide technical knowledge and data-driven direction to scientific colleagues.
- Work in a Biosafety Level 2 environment and handle a variety of sample matrices and microorganisms.
The essential requirements of the job include:
- PhD degree in a related field (e.g., Bioengineering, Mechanical Engineering, Chemistry, Physics, Molecular Biology, Biochemistry) from a top-tier American university, along with a strong academic record and demonstrated excellence in research.
- Demonstrated track record with at least 10 years of experience in designing and innovating in a multidisciplinary environment.
- Ability and desire to perform hands-on work, including running laboratory experiments and test plans, assembling complex systems, performing analytical measurements, and fabricating small prototypes and parts.
- Ability to communicate clearly and collaborate effectively with colleagues
- High degree of self-direction and self-reliance, and the ability to formulate and test concepts independently.
- Maintaining detailed experimental records and documents, analyzing data using tools such as Microsoft Excel or Matlab, and presenting results at internal technical meetings.
- Willingness to work on both engineering design and assay chemistries, and a desire to fill gaps in knowledge and skills when necessary
Desirable qualifications include:
- Ability to design and implement control systems and testbeds, drawing upon knowledge in firmware, software, and mechanical design
- Background in using Multiphysics modeling software such as COMSOL or ANSYS
- Experience with the design and manufacturing of small parts using both CAD software packages (ie Creo or Solidworks) and machine shop tools such as mills, lathes, and laser cutters
- Knowledge of optics, and of fluorescence and colorimetric detection techniques for biochemical assays
- Knowledge of physical chemistry from the standpoint of designing and optimizing buffer formulations for biochemical assays
- Designing oligonucleotide assays and implementing methods for multiplex diagnostic techniques
Other guidance:
- Please include your undergrad and graduate transcripts and GPA.
- Please share any relevant, non-confidential work you have completed. Include photos and diagrams, if possible.
