FDA Opportunity

The Food and Drug Administration does much more than just regulate food and drugs. FDA is also responsible for ensuring the safety and effectiveness of medical devices, biologics, veterinary products, cosmetics, and products that emit radiation.  

 

The Office of Cardiovascular Devices has teams of engineers, scientists, clinicians, and public health experts that oversee medical devices such as pacemakers, stents, heart valves and more. This includes scientific and regulatory reviews of device design, bench testing, animal testing, clinical trials, manufacturing, adverse events, and recalls.  Our reviewers have the opportunity to work on many novel devices and contribute at every stage from early development all the way to commercialization. It’s extremely rewarding to be part of an organization whose goal is to bring safe, effective and life-saving medical technologies to patients around the world! 

 

We are always interested in speaking with engineers or scientists with prior experience or research in medical technologies. U.S. Citizens who are interested in learning more about opportunities with FDA at our campus near Washington, DC can send their resume/CV or questions to: CardioHiring@fda.hhs.gov.
