Design and execute experiments for device characterisation, fluid dynamics analysis, and performance validation. Translate product requirements into technical specifications for microfluidic components. Implement protocols for fabrication, assembly, and testing of microfluidic devices. Mentor junior scientists and engineers; provide technical guidance and project leadership. Contribute to intellectual property generation, including patents and technical disclosures. Prepare technical documentation, reports, and presentations for internal stakeholders and external collaborators. Qualifications & Experience: PhD or equivalent in Engineering, Physics, Bioengineering, or related field with specialisation in microfluidics, MEMS, or lab-on-a-chip systems. Deep understanding of microfluidic principles, including fluid dynamics, laminar flow, diffusion, and surface tension effects in microscale systems. Hands-on experience with microfabrication techniques such as soft lithography, photolithography, CNC micro milling, injection moulding, or 3D microprinting. Proven ability to design and execute experiments to characterize microfluidic systems (e.g., flow profiling, pressure measurements, mixing efficiency, droplet generation). Skilled in integrating microfluidics with sensors, optics, electronics, or automation platforms. Desirable Knowledge, Skills and Experience: Familiarity with biological or biochemical applications in microfluidics (e.g., single-cell analysis, droplet microfluidics, bead handling, point-of-care diagnostics, organ-on-chip). Experience in troubleshooting and optimizing fluidic workflows in complex systems. Familiarity with microscopy and imaging techniques relevant to microfluidics (e.g., fluorescence, brightfield, confocal). Experience of developing technologies within regulatory frameworks for in vitro diagnostics within the UK, EU, or USA.
