Work Flexibility: Onsite
Rotation InformationAs a program participant, graduates will experience 4 six-month rotations and be placed on one of the following teams for each rotation:
- Advanced Quality Engineering (AQE)
AQE plays a critical role in Stryker that partners with New Product Development (NPD) teams to ensure the overall quality of a manufactured product.
- New Product Development Operations (NPD OPS)
NPD Ops serves R&D with multiple functions. Participants can be placed within the Custom Test Equipment team where they will experience product testing and test equipment development, Finite Element Analysis (FEA) where they will be trained and will conduct FEA on products in development, or Experimental where they will learn about prototypes, mills, lathes and 3D printing.
- Interventional Spine (IVS)
Advancing interventional care from diagnosis to delivery, IVS provides surgeons with an extensive and innovative product portfolio for vertebral augmentation, vertebroplasty and radiofrequency ablation procedures, along with a diagnostic tool and decompression treatment advances for contained disc herniations. Participants will work within the design phase process researching, developing, and delivering new products to market as a design engineer.
NS offers products for the specific needs of Neurosurgical (cranial), Spine and ENT (ear, nose, throat) physicians with a comprehensive suite of products developed for the precision required by these specialties. The product innovation is focused on improving our customers' existing surgical procedures, while exploring new techniques to further advance the clinical outcomes of their patients. Participants will work within the design phase process researching, developing, and delivering new products to market as a design engineer.
- Orthopaedic Instruments (OI)
OI delivers innovative products and services for the Orthopaedic ecosystem. This team's focus is on power tools used on upper and lower extremities, and participants will work within the design phase process researching, developing, and delivering new products to market as a design engineer.
PE works closely with products in the field and will conduct redesign projects based on issues seen in the field. Participants may also work with manufacturing engineers on manufacturing line issues as a design engineer.
- Surgical Technologies (ST)
ST delivers products that enable caregivers to provide a safer, simple experience for their patients. They utilize technology to enhance products and create safe solutions for everyone in the operating room. Participants will work within the design phase process researching, developing, and delivering new products to market as a design engineer.
