    Apologies if this thread is out of place here but I didn’t have much luck after starting one recently in the Work and Jobs forum and thought this forum might be a better bet. In a nutshell, I’m looking for some info/feedback from anyone working in R&D in the Medtech sector. If this happens to be you then I'd really appreciate it if you could take a look at the original thread here www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=105308006. Thanks!

    Sorry, I'm living in Galway city and looking at the possibility of working in the very vibrant Medtech sector here.

    The heavy-hitters in Galway lean heavily towards mechanical devices. This includes the likes of Medtronic, Boston, Creganna, Lake Region, etc.

    However, I'd say two things:
    1. The cutting edge in R&D is moving towards electro-mechanical;
    2. There are a growing number of start-ups hiring (or struggling to find!) good electronic engineers.

    PM me details of your experience/expertise and I may be able to connect you to some companies.

    That's actually exactly what I've found myself through some sussing - the top three companies mainly seem to have R&D engineers with biomed and mech backgrounds.
