👩💻 Your Impact
ViCentra is at a defining moment, scaling across Europe and entering the US market with the Kaleido ecosystem. The devices we build will live on people's bodies, every hour of every day, for years. That's a promise only rigorous testing can keep.
As Lead Test Engineer, you are the person who makes that promise real. You will build ViCentra's in-house testing and reliability capability from the ground up, owning the protocols, the rigs, and the evidence base that prove our devices perform, endure, and stay safe long after launch. This is where engineering conviction meets patient trust, and it starts with you.
Your impact lies in driving the documentation for test protocols and reports around testing to be of the highest quality. You will define how mechanical, 60601 and EMC testing evidence is generated, documented, and maintained, ensuring that once products are launched, ViCentra has a robust, compliant testing framework it fully owns.
Within your first six months, you will establish (FDA‑ready) mechanical test protocols that not only support approval, but also enable ongoing changes, updates, and improvements with confidence. Your work ensures that innovation doesn’t stall after launch, it moves forward safely, compliantly, and at speed.
In short, your impact is about taking what has been built and making it future‑proof. Giving teams, regulators, and users confidence that ViCentra’s devices are engineered, tested, and maintained to the highest standards.
🔧 What You’ll Take On
You will lead from a technical perspective, with a strong emphasis on documentation, structure, and coordination:
Own and author mechanical and EMC test protocols and procedures, written to meet FDA/MDR submission and review standards
Coordinate mechanical, software, and EMC testing, including planning, execution oversight, review, and documentation
Act as the technical testing authority across R&D, Quality, Regulatory, and external test houses
Ensure high‑quality test documentation, reporting, and traceability across projects
Balance hands‑on testing with coordination with approximately 80% focus on documentation & project management and 20% hands‑on execution.
Support the growth of a Test team, leading through technical expertise.
Ensure testing activities align with medical device regulations, relevant standards, and internal quality systems
