寻找工作机遇

We are seeking a Research Scientist to lead and support the development of medical-grade 3D printing materials for implants, surgical guides, dental, and regenerative medicine applications. The role focuses on polymer formulation, compounding, extrusion, characterization, and printability optimization under ISO 13485–aligned R&D and manufacturing environments.

This position plays a critical role in translating laboratory formulations into reliable, scalable, and regulatory-ready medical 3D printing filaments.

Material Development & Formulation

• Develop and optimize medical 3D printing materials, including PEEK, PMMA, PLLA, PETG, PC, and bioactive or composite systems
• Design polymer formulations, fillers, and additives to achieve target mechanical, thermal, and biological performance
• Evaluate material behavior across extrusion, annealing, and FDM/FFF printing processes

Extrusion & Process Development

• Support filament extrusion, diameter control, and process parameter optimization
• Troubleshoot extrusion defects, surface quality, and material stability
• Support scale-up from lab trials to pilot and production runs

Characterization & Testing

• Conduct material characterization including tensile, flexural, thermal, and rheological testing
• Evaluate printability, layer adhesion, dimensional accuracy, and surface finish
• Analyze and interpret experimental data to guide formulation and process decisions

Medical 3D Printing Evaluation

• Develop and validate print profiles for industrial and desktop 3D printers
• Assess printed parts for mechanical performance and functional suitability
• Support application testing for implants, surgical guides, dental, and scaffold structures

Documentation & Regulatory Support

• Maintain detailed experimental records, protocols, and technical reports
• Support ISO 13485 documentation, material traceability, and validation activities
• Assist in generating technical data for customers, partners, and regulatory submissions

Collaboration & Research

• Work closely with engineers, quality, regulatory, and production teams
• Support collaborations with hospitals, universities, and research institutions
• Contribute to internal R&D strategy, technology roadmap, and innovation initiatives

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s, Master’s, or PhD in Materials Science, Biomedical Engineering, Polymer Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or related field
• Strong hands-on experience in polymer materials, compounding, or extrusion
• Experience with laboratory testing and data analysis
• Ability to work independently in a regulated R&D environment
• Strong technical writing and communication skills in English

Preferred Skills (Highly Advantageous)

• Experience with medical-grade polymers or implantable materials
• Familiarity with FDM/FFF 3D printing and print parameter optimization
• Knowledge of ISO 13485, ISO 10993, ASTM, or USP Class VI frameworks
• Experience in cleanroom or controlled manufacturing environments
• Prior industry experience in medical devices or biomaterials

What We Offer

• Hands-on role in developing real medical-grade 3D printing materials used globally
• Exposure to the full pipeline from formulation to clinical and commercial use
• Collaborative environment bridging R&D, manufacturing, and regulation
• Competitive compensation and long-term career development opportunities
