Innovative Drive Background:

In this position you will be playing a key role as a member of one of our multidisciplinary medical device design and development teams. This role offers hands-on exposure to the full product lifecycle — from early concept generation and prototyping through design verification, regulatory documentation, and manufacturing transfer. IDC has partnered with more than 200 medical device companies—ranging from leading OEMs to early-stage startups commercializing cutting- edge technologies. IDC's business is built entirely on word-of-mouth referrals, a testament to the trust and reputation we have earned across the medical device industry. Our team is frequently sought out by top physicians, engineers, and entrepreneurs for its deep technical expertise, creativity, and proven ability to execute complex programs from concept through commercialization. Team members gain hands-on experience bringing new technologies to market across a broad range of surgical and interventional specialties, including ophthalmology, cardiology, ENT, gastroenterology, sports medicine, obstetrics, and drug delivery. "More than anything else, values are critical because they define a company's personality. They provide employees with clarity about how to behave, which reduces the need for inefficient and demoralizing micromanagement. An organization that has properly identified its values and adheres to them will naturally attract the right employees and repel the wrong ones. This makes recruiting exponentially easier and more effective, and it drastically reduces turnover." Patrick Lencioni from "The Advantage" Guided by this philosophy, IDC is built on a set of core values that define how we work and who we are: Ownership — taking responsibility for outcomes and holding ourselves to a high standard Attitude — maintaining a positive, collaborative, and "can-do" mindset Technical Competency & Rigor — applying deep expertise with discipline, precision, and integrity IDC operates two mirrored facilities in Redwood City, California and Reno, Nevada. Both locations house vertically integrated R&D and pilot manufacturing capabilities, including 6-axis CNC machining, injection molding, laser cutting and welding, additive manufacturing (3D printing), and ISO Class 8 cleanrooms to support clinical builds and early-stage production.
