Biomedical Tissue Engineer information

What is a biomedical tissue engineer?

A Biomedical Tissue Engineer specializes in developing and improving artificial tissues and biomaterials to replace or repair damaged human tissues. They apply principles of biology, chemistry, and engineering to design solutions for medical challenges, such as organ regeneration and wound healing. Their work often involves tissue scaffolding, bioprinting, and stem cell research. They collaborate with researchers, healthcare professionals, and regulatory bodies to ensure safety and effectiveness of biomedical products.

What does a biomedical tissue engineer do?

Biomedical Tissue Engineers typically spend their days designing and conducting experiments to develop or improve engineered tissues, analyzing data, and documenting results for regulatory compliance and publication. They collaborate closely with biologists, clinicians, and material scientists to refine scaffolds and optimize cell cultures for tissue growth. Additional tasks may include maintaining laboratory equipment, managing research timelines, and presenting findings to teams or stakeholders. This role involves a mix of hands-on laboratory work and collaborative problem-solving, making each day varied and intellectually rewarding.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a biomedical tissue engineer?

To thrive as a Biomedical Tissue Engineer, you need a solid background in biomedical engineering, cell biology, materials science, and laboratory research, often supported by an advanced degree in biomedical or tissue engineering. Experience with bioreactors, 3D printing technologies, tissue culture systems, and relevant laboratory certifications is highly beneficial. Strong analytical thinking, meticulous attention to detail, effective communication, and the ability to work collaboratively are valuable soft skills in this field. These competencies are essential for developing innovative tissue engineering solutions, ensuring regulatory compliance, and successful cross-disciplinary project execution.

Job description

About Current Surgical Inc.

Current Surgical is a startup company developing technology on the frontier of engineering and biology. Our first product is a smart microinvasive needle that precisely destroys tumors without damaging healthy tissue, allowing doctors to treat cancers that are untreatable today.

Our technology is backed by the National Institute of Health, National Science Foundation, and top tier venture capital firms (True Ventures, 1517, and SciFounders) interested in dramatically improving the accuracy and accessibility of surgery.

About you

We are looking for a mechanical engineer or biomedical engineer (with a mechanical engineering focus) who is excited to develop technology at the forefront of medical devices and precision surgery. You will work directly with the co-founders to design, develop, and test our clinical prototype. This is a difficult hands-on engineering challenge that integrates precision mechanics, novel electronics, microfluidics, and ultrasound physics.

The ideal candidate is someone who is a ‘maker’ at heart, interested in working at a startup, and eager to challenge their technical development. This is a unique opportunity, as one of the first employees, you will have the opportunity to work across many areas of a hardtech biomedical startup, including helping to design preclinical studies and interfacing with clinicians. We are expecting you to be a core team member supporting the mechanical development, which at this stage requires design, hands-on development, and experimental oversight and execution.

Educational background

  • BS or MS in mechanical or biomedical engineering or closely related fields (e.g. mechatronics, robotics).

  • 1-3 years work experience preferred

Desired skills

  • Entrepreneurial, self-motivated, and independent; desire to grow into a leadership role

  • Basic experience with a range of fabrication approaches and their tradeoffs, with different materials (metal, polymers, ceramics, etc.)

  • Experience with CAD tools (e.g., Solidworks, Fusion 360) and ability to design complex mechanical parts and assemblies

  • Interest in biomedical research and conducting benchtop experiments that may include ex vivo tissue

  • Ability to carefully execute experiments and analyze data

  • Elementary data analysis experience with Matlab and/or Python

  • General knowledge of medical imaging is a plus
