Your role:

• Work with global cross-functional teams on the creation of an excellent user and patient experience for SRC wearable devices, specifically Patient Interface, ensuring safe and effective use. This involves working on all stages of the User-Centered product development process; from contribution to the initial research on user needs and workflow analyses, to providing usability evaluations for soon-to-be released products.

• Create use scenarios and conduct usability risk management to capture potential use errors that are related to product usage and proposing UI mitigations to prevent the user from making the error. Create Usability engineering files (HFE report) to demonstrate that usability activities were successfully completed, and the product was found to be safe and effective.

How we work together

We believe that we are better together than apart. For our office-based teams, this means working in-person at least 3 days per week. Onsite roles require full-time presence in the company’s facilities. Field roles are most effectively done outside of the company’s main facilities, generally at the customers’ or suppliers’ locations.
