About this role
SurModics is looking for a Technician 2 to support its medical device coating operations in Eden Prairie. You'd spend your time handling and coating medical devices with proprietary polymers, performing dip coating and curing operations, and verifying that finished products meet specifications. The role also involves dimensional measurement, visual inspection, documentation of production data, and training other technicians on certified processes.
Beyond hands-on manufacturing, you'd contribute to the engineering side by assisting coating engineers with feasibility activities and providing feedback on procedures before commercial release. This blend of production work and technical support means you'd need solid experience in medical device manufacturing, familiarity with Good Documentation Practices, and comfort reading and interpreting technical procedures. Strong attention to detail, clear communication, and reliable interpersonal skills matter here—you'll be documenting work carefully and helping colleagues develop their skills.
The position is full-time and in-office. The salary range is $42,779 to $59,914, and the company offers a bonus program, 401(k) matching, tuition reimbursement, and student debt repayment. You'll need at least a high school diploma and two years of medical device manufacturing experience, ideally with some R&D production background.
