Overview
Join Teva's Combination Products & Devices (CPD) R&D Team - Shaping the Future of Drug Delivery. At Teva's CPD team in Abbots Park, Runcorn, we're pioneering the development of advanced needle-based injection devices and cutting-edge technologies to deliver our portfolio of Small Molecule and Generic medicines. From Pre-Filled Syringes (PFS) to Autoinjectors and Pen Injectors, our diverse device portfolio supports both generic and specialty products across key therapeutic areas including Neuroscience, Immunology, and Endocrinology. Within CPD Abbots Park, our work is organised into three product technology clusters: Cartridges & Pen Injectors; Autoinjectors (AI); Pre-Filled Syringes & Safety Systems (PFS).
The Opportunity
As Senior Device Engineer, reporting to one of the Engineering Team Leaders or to a Project Technical Lead, you'll play a key role in ensuring our combination products are safe, effective, and compliant with global standards. You'll apply best-practice engineering principles, Design Controls, and Safety Risk Management to guide products from concept through to production.
Throughout this journey, you will collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams from across Teva, including CPD team members and the wider Teva network (formulation scientists, regulatory experts, marketing and manufacturing from Teva's global sites).
Your expertise in manufacturing technologies - such as plastic injection moulding - will be vital in preparing device designs for seamless transfer into production. You'll bring creativity and problem-solving skills to tackle complex engineering challenges, while contributing to the evolution of our departmental systems and influencing best practices across the team.
