NDCS is a leader in dental innovation and offers a dynamic environment that integrates scientific discovery with patient-centric solutions.
Job Description:
The selected candidate will
- Lead the fabrication and optimization of bioresorbable polymer-based medical devices using advanced micro- and macro-fabrication techniques such as nanoimprint lithography, photolithography, 3D imprinting, and thermal molding.
- Develop and validate processing workflows, performing material characterization (e.g., SEM, CLSM, FTIR, DSC), and collaborating with clinicians and scientists to support preclinical evaluation and regulatory translation.
- Contribute to data analysis, manuscript preparation, and dissemination of findings at conferences and symposia.
Requirements:
- Ph.D. in Materials Science, Biomedical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, or a related field, with demonstrated expertise in polymer processing, microfabrication, and surface engineering.
- Strong publication record and experience working in multidisciplinary teams are essential.
- Familiarity with translational research environments, medical device standards, or regulated manufacturing workflows (e.g., ISO will be considered advantageous.
- Prior experience with medical-grade polymers, surface microstructuring, and tooling design is highly desirable.
- Demonstrated track record of hands-on fabrication and optimization of biodegradable or bioactive materials for healthcare applications.
- Peer-reviewed publications (preferably in top-quartile journals) showcasing independent research contributions.
- Proven ability to collaborate within multidisciplinary teams comprising materials scientists, biologists, clinicians, and regulatory experts.
- Experience in drafting technical reports, contributing to grant proposals/IP filings, and presenting findings at international conferences.
- Prior involvement in mentoring or supervising junior researchers and managing laboratory workflows will be viewed favourably.
