Job description

DropletPharma is building two microscale devices that will accelerate radiopharmaceutical discovery and production, transforming health outcomes worldwide. As an integration engineering intern on our team, you will be tasked with taking ownership and implementing core improvements to the mechanical and fluidic systems for our two flagship systems. This will be a fully in-person position in Los Angeles, CA (near LAX) for the spring (approximately January to June) with flexible start and end dates.

What you will have ownership over :

  • Work with the engineering team to test and characterize mechanical, pneumatic, and fluidic subsystems for our radiopharmaceutical production and discovery systems.
  • Build and test assemblies and prototyping systems.
  • Create DOEs / experimental plans and perform experiments to evaluate new concepts and designs.
  • Perform data analysis on experimental data.
  • Assist with the development and maintenance of testing documentation as well as manuals and SOPs for operation of prototype systems.
  • Troubleshoot and improve designs.

Requirements

What we hope to see on your resume :

  • Pursuing B.S. degree or higher in Mechanical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering or similar.
  • Working knowledge of design of experiments.
  • Experience with statistical analysis tools such as ANOVA, significance analysis, etc.
  • Assembly of complex systems (mechanical, electromechanical, fluidic, pneumatic).
  • Experience with metrology and measurement devices such as pressure transducers, flow sensors, thermocouples, etc.
  • Ability to work in both laboratory and machine shop environments.
  • 3D Printing & Rapid prototyping experience.
  • Microsoft Office (Excel, PowerPoint, Word).

    • Experience that would be great, but not required :

  • Data analysis using various python libraries (NumPy, pandas, matplotlib).
  • GD&T (ASME Y14.5)

    • What we hope to observe about you during our conversation about your work (even one great project / experience can cover all these!) :

  • Meticulous, logical, fundamental approach across all your work.
  • Ability to communicate key messages of your work succinctly across written, oral and slide presentations, and have mastery over your work such that you can elaborate deeply when needed.
  • A demonstrated deep curiosity.
  • Examples of how you tackled roadblocks and cleared them.
  • Experience in collaborating across engineering disciplines (e.g., interacting with electrical engineers, software teams, etc. on large projects).
  • Demonstrated ability to work in a dynamic environment, adapt to changes and deliver on milestones on tight timelines.
  • Comfortable working as part of a startup team, taking on outsized responsibility of assigned projects and tasks and demonstrating ability to suggest key improvements - including ones that shape the company’s future.
  • Something extraordinary you've accomplished and are particularly proud of.

    • Benefits

    DropletPharma aims to provide competitive compensation. We expect this position to be a regular, full-time position, with an hourly rate of $30-40 / hour, depending on your experience and education.

    Please note that we are unable to sponsor a visa for this position and therefore can only consider applications from individuals already authorized to work in the United States. Although our primary location is in Los Angeles, CA, we welcome applications from candidates residing anywhere.
