This role is based in ScubaTx's Manchester office but requires frequent travel to Houston, Texas, concentrated during the real-world deployment phase of the project (approximately November 2026 – June 2027): • During the deployment phase: on-the-ground presence in Houston of approximately one week in every four to six weeks, with more frequent trips around key training and deployment milestones., • Before and after this window: shorter, more occasional visits for relationship-building, planning and follow-up., • Occasional additional travel to other US sites or relevant conferences as required., • Candidates must be able to travel to, and undertake business activity in, the United States (e.g. via ESTA/B-1 or equivalent business travel authorisation)., • Degree (BSc, MSc, or PhD, including candidates in the final stages of thesis completion) in a relevant life sciences, biomedical engineering, clinical or related discipline., • Experience in a clinical, medical device or life-sciences commercial environment, ideally involving direct interaction with clinicians, hospital or procurement staff. Relevant doctoral research experience in a life sciences or clinical context will be considered equivalent., • Strong data analysis skills (e.g. Excel and/or statistical software), with the ability to translate technical and clinical data into clear commercial insight., • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, comfortable liaising confidently with senior clinicians and OPO leadership., • Willingness and ability to travel frequently and independently to the USA, as set out above., • Self-motivated and comfortable operating with significant autonomy while based remotely from the core UK team., • Familiarity with organ transplantation, organ preservation, or OPO operations., • Experience with medical device field deployment, clinical evaluations, or post-market surveillance., • Understanding of US healthcare and transplant procurement/reimbursement pathways., • Prior experience supporting an early-stage or scale-up medtech company. ScubaTx is a Manchester- and Houston-based medical device company developing the Active Temperature Control (ATC) platform: a reusable, plug-and-play system that actively regulates and maintains precise, tuneable temperatures for donor organs during transport, alongside proprietary oxygen persufflation technology. ATC-Heart, the company's first product application, is approaching FDA 510(k) submission and initial US commercial deployment. This role is central to that transition from late-stage development into real-world clinical use. #J-18808-Ljbffr
