Experienced UX designer as Usability Officer for remote Ventilator

Save to Favorites

We are a non-profit organization building an infrastructure to develop, manufacture, distribute and operate remote-controlled ventilators and oxygen concentrators that will also gather high-resolution treatment data for scientific research and treatment optimization.

Ventilators are in widespread use even though you might not have heard about them a lot. During operations, in transport to the hospital and during lung diseases such as COVID-19 Ventilators show up in one form or another. Remote interactions are being introduced into the medical field at a rapid pace which brings with it certain challenges in the usability of devices.

We are looking for a UX professional who wants to gain experience in the important field of telemedicine to use their UX experience to save lives and reduce the cost of healthcare for the end user.

Since August we had a small UX team of four researchers and designers and one engineer that has researched and developed a web-based user interfaced for practitioners to monitor the patient from afar, setup automation rules, review and plan treatments and communicate with the patients and other doctors. To receive regulatory approval we need to create the appropriate design and design control documents. It is wrong to think of regulatory documentation as mere paperwork that needs to be done, it is a guideline to guarantee a safe and successful product providing that the guideline has been implemented properly. A skill that is highly searched for in this world where user experience is becoming more and more important.

To get a sense of what will be needed to be done in this role, please have a look at this short guide.
