About the position

At Merit Medical, the Mfg Engineer III position is a part-time role requiring 20 hours of work per week. This position involves performing complex technical work related to the design, manufacture, and operation of structures, machines, and systems under broad supervision and guidelines. The engineer will independently evaluate, select, and apply standard technical techniques, procedures, and criteria, using judgment to make minor adaptations and modifications as necessary. The role requires investigating a moderate number of technical variables to complete assignments that have clear and defined objectives. The engineer will work on conventional types of plans, investigations, surveys, structures, or equipment that have relatively few complex features, for which there are established precedents. While the engineer will work independently on standard projects, assistance will be provided for unusual problems. The position may involve supervising the work of engineers, technicians, or others who assist in specific assignments, and the engineer will work jointly with other engineers on special projects, write Engineering Change Notices (ECNs), and create prototypes under broad direction. Additionally, the engineer may have authority over Non-Conformance Material Reports (NCMRs) and will perform other related duties as required. The physical demands of the job include lifting not to exceed 50 lbs, writing, sitting, standing, bending, and visual acuity, among others. The position is categorized under Infectious Control Risk Category II, indicating a potential for exposure to blood or body fluids during job performance.
