Union Biomedical Engineer Jobs in Raleigh, NC (NOW HIRING)

We are the people who give possibilities purpose

BD is one of the largest global medical technology companies in the world. Advancing the world of health is our Purpose, and it's no small feat. It takes the imagination and passion of all of us-from design and engineering to the manufacturing and marketing of our billions of MedTech products per year-to look at the impossible and find transformative solutions that turn dreams into possibilities.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and execute simulations capturing nonlinear behaviors such as large deformation, contact, and time-dependent effects.
• Perform advanced nonlinear structural modeling using FEA tools (Abaqus, ANSYS, LS-DYNA, COMSOL) to solve complex engineering problems.
• Leverage numerical, statistical, and scripting tools (e.g., Python, MATLAB, DOE) to automate workflows, generate insights, and support cross-functional decision-making.
• Develop and calibrate constitutive material models through lab testing to support accurate product simulations.
• Define and implement robust V&V strategies, including experimental correlation and documentation aligned with ASME V&V40.

Minimum Requirements:

• Degree in Mechanical, Biomedical Engineering (or related) with 2-6+ years of relevant experience, and ability to manage priorities effectively.

• Extensive experience with nonlinear FEA tools applied to complex engineering problem-solving.

• Proficiency in CAD modeling, preferably using SolidWorks.

• Experience developing constitutive material models for plastics and/or elastomers.

• Strong communication skills with the ability to collaborate across technical and non-technical teams.

Preferred Skills:

• Experience testing plastics and elastomers to calibrate advanced constitive material models.

• Background in modeling and/or testing biological tissues, including familiarity with histological or imaging analysis techniques.

• Experience implementing custom material models (e.g., UMAT/VUMAT) and supporting regulatory submissions involving simulation data (e.g., ASME V&V40).

• Proficiency in simulation and modeling tools (Abaqus, ANSYS, LS-DYNA, COMSOL), along with data analysis and optimization tools (HEEDS, Minitab).

• Programming experience (Python, MATLAB) and hands-on use of testing equipment such as Instron and CellScale

Physical Demands: (if applicable)

This role requires physical activity associated with laboratory-based testing. This includes:

• Handling polymers and gases in a lab environment.

• Operating and setting up mechanical testing equipment (e.g., Instron, Tensile machine load cell changing).

• Performing repetitive tasks such as sample preparation, mounting, and alignment.

• Standing for extended periods during experimental procedures.

• Lifting and transporting lab equipment or test fixtures (typically <25 lbs).

• The role also involves computer use for data analysis and documentation.

• The role also involves extended periods of computer use for simulation work, data analysis, and documentation.

At BD, we prioritize on-site collaboration because we believe it fosters creativity, innovation, and effective problem-solving, which are essential in the fast-paced healthcare industry. For most roles, we require a minimum of 4 days of in-office presence per week to maintain our culture of excellence and ensure smooth operations, while also recognizing the importance of flexibility and work-life balance. Remote or field-based positions will have different workplace arrangements which will be indicated in the job posting.

To find purpose in the possibilities, we need people who can see the bigger picture, who understand the human story that underpins everything we do. We welcome people with the imagination and drive to help us reinvent the future of healthcare. At BD, you'll discover a culture in which you can learn, grow and thrive.

We believe that when people connect in person, we learn faster, collaborate more deeply, and build a stronger culture. Join us and enjoy a culture where face-to-face collaboration supports your learning, your progress, and your success.
