J&J Hiring: Sr. Design Quality Engineer

J&J Hiring: Sr. Design Quality Engineer
Attention Quality Pros: It’s Time to Upgrade Your Career. 🩺✨ Are you an experienced Quality Engineer tired of just "maintaining" legacy products? Are you ready to be on the front lines of actual medical innovation? Johnson & Johnson’s recent acquisition, Shockwave Medical, is looking for a Senior Design Quality Engineer to join their team in sunny Santa Clara. Shockwave is revolutionizing the treatment of cardiovascular disease with Intravascular Lithotripsy (IVL)—basically using sonic pressure waves to safely break up calcified plaque. Yes, it’s as cool as it sounds. The Vibe & The Role: This isn't a "sit in the corner and check boxes" kind of QA role. You’ll be embedded with R&D, a key player in New Product Development (NPD). You’ll own design controls, risk management (ISO 14971 is your best friend), and ensure these life-changing devices are safe and effective from concept to commercialization. It’s fast-paced, highly visible, and deeply impactful. Who They Are Looking For: You have a Bachelor’s degree in Engineering or Science. You’ve got 4+ years of experience (MedTech preferred). You speak fluent ISO 13485 and 21 CFR 820. You aren't afraid to challenge the status quo to improve quality. The Details: Location: Santa Clara, CA (Heart of Silicon Valley). Salary: The posted range is a healthy $113,000 - $195,500 (depending on experience). If you want your work to matter—like, really matter to patients’ lives—this is the move. 👉 See the full job description and apply here: https://jj.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/JJ/job/Santa-Clara-California-United-States-of-America/Sr-Design-Quality-Engineer--Shockwave-Medical_R-053670-2
