Do you want to contribute directly to the clinical performance of devices, ensuring they meet the highest standards in real-world settings? We have an exciting opportunity for a Medical Device Test Engineer to join our client's team.

About the Role:
As a Medical Device Test Engineer, you will be at the heart of the device development process, designing, executing, and analysing tests that assess the performance of our medical devices.

Key responsibilities include:

Developing and executing test cases to assess device performance.
Writing comprehensive test protocols and reports.
Setting up test rigs and conducting both manual and Python-based tests.
Designing tests from a clinical engineering perspective to ensure they represent the device's clinical performance.
Collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure the device meets regulatory and clinical standards.
Identifying potential issues, errors, and challenges that may arise in clinical use and testing for them accordingly.This is a hands-on role, where you'll be actively involved in test execution, not software or mechanical design. You'll be focused on ensuring the device functions as expected within the clinical environment, looking at the device from a clinical and regulatory perspective.

A strong background in biomedical, electronics, or computer science engineering, or similar degree
An interest in the clinical aspects of medical device development.
The ability to design, execute, and analyse tests that align with clinical performance criteria.
Experience or a keen interest in regulatory and clinical testing environments.
A practical, problem-solving mindset with the ability to think critically about device performance in real-world scenarios.Skills & Qualifications:

Degree in Biomedical Engineering, Electronics, or Computer Science or similar degree
Familiarity or interest in test rig setups, test case design, and data analysis.

Where to Advertise Biotech Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Advertising biotech jobs in the UK requires a different approach to most technical hiring. The candidate pool spans life scientists, computational biologists, regulatory specialists and biomanufacturing engineers — each with distinct professional networks and job search behaviours. General job boards reach a broad audience but lack the specificity that biotech professionals expect. Specialist platforms, academic channels and sector-specific communities each serve a different part of the market. This guide, published by BiotechnologyJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise biotech roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Biotech Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Biotechnology is creating jobs at a rate that few other sectors can match. New disciplines are emerging from research labs and entering commercial hiring pipelines, existing roles are fragmenting into deeper specialisms, and the technologies driving it all — from AI-assisted drug discovery to next-generation gene editing — are advancing faster than the workforce can keep pace with. For job seekers, this creates an unusual challenge. In most industries, career planning means navigating a relatively familiar landscape and identifying where your skills fit. In biotech, that landscape is being actively redrawn. The roles generating the most hiring activity in 2028 may look quite different from the ones appearing in job adverts today. That's not a reason to feel overwhelmed — it's a reason to get informed. The candidates who thrive in this market aren't always those with the longest CVs or the most letters after their name. They're the ones who understand where the sector is heading: which disciplines are gaining commercial traction, which technologies are driving employer demand, and how the definition of a "biotech job" is expanding well beyond traditional pharmaceuticals and research roles. This article breaks down what the UK biotech jobs market is likely to look like over the next three years — covering emerging job titles, the technologies reshaping hiring, the skills employers are prioritising right now, and how to position your career ahead of the curve rather than behind it.
