We are seeking a highly skilled and proactive Biomedical Engineer to join our clinical team. In this role, you will be the backbone of our hospital’s medical technology infrastructure, ensuring that all life-saving and diagnostic equipment is operational, compliant, and ready for patient care.
KRAs Objective :-
1. Equipment Uptime & Maintenance Management : Ensure all medical equipment is fully functional, minimizing clinical disruptions in critical areas (ICU, OT, ER, Dialysis). Key Responsibilities: Execute the Preventive Maintenance (PM) schedule for all medical devices. Manage breakdowns efficiently and oversee the resolution of technical faults. Coordinate with Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) for Annual Maintenance Contracts (AMC) and Comprehensive Maintenance Contracts (CMC). Measurable KPIs: Maintain overall medical equipment uptime at greater than 98%. Achieve 100% adherence to the annual Planned Preventive Maintenance (PPM) calendar. Mean Time to Repair (MTTR): Close minor breakdown snags within 2 to 4 hours; critical breakdowns within 24 hours.
2. Calibration, Quality Assurance & Safety Compliance : Ensure clinical accuracy, legal metrology compliance, and patient-staff safety during device use. Key Responsibilities: Manage regular calibration of diagnostic and therapeutic equipment to eliminate measurement errors. Ensure compliance with national/international healthcare quality standards (e.g., tracking asset safety history for hospital audits). Perform electrical safety testing (earth leakage current, insulation resistance) on patient-connected devices. Measurable KPIs: 100% of critical equipment calibrated on time (Defibrillators, Ventilators, Anesthesia workstations). Zero non-compliance (NC) points raised during external regulatory or quality accreditation audits regarding medical equipment. 100% documentation of history sheets, calibration certificates, and condemnation reports.
3. Cost Optimization & Lifecycle Management : Minimize operational expenditure on maintenance while advising on asset lifecycle costs. Key Responsibilities: Evaluate the performance of older assets and recommend condemnation for high-maintenance or obsolete devices. Verify AMC/CMC drafts to ensure favorable terms, rapid response times, and spare-part inclusions. Verify vendor invoices against actual service deliveries and spare parts used. Measurable KPIs: Reduce annual spare-part/maintenance expenditure by 5–10% through effective negotiation or in-house repairs. Provide technical evaluation reports for new procurement within the specified institutional timeline. Maintain an updated, error-free Asset Register covering 100% of the hospital’s biomedical inventory.
4. Clinical Staff Training & Adverse Event Management : Reduce equipment damage caused by user error and handle device-related hazards safely. Key Responsibilities: Conduct end-user training for nursing staff and technicians on the correct operation and daily maintenance of equipment. Investigate and report any device-related adverse events or near-misses (pharmacovigilance/materiovigilance). Train staff on basic troubleshooting to reduce unnecessary service calls. Measurable KPIs: Conduct at least 1–2 structured training sessions per month for high-turnover clinical areas (e.g., Emergency, ICU wards). Reduce breakdown calls stemming from "user errors" by greater than 20% year-over-year. 100% root-cause analysis (RCA) conducted and reported within 48 hours of any equipment-related medical incident.
Qualifications & Requirements
- Education: B.Tech / B.E in Biomedical Engineering or Clinical Engineering.
- Experience: 3 to 5 years of hands-on experience in hospital-based biomedical maintenance.
- Skills: Strong knowledge of medical gas pipeline systems, diagnostic imaging, life-support hardware, and basic hospital information systems (HIS).
- Certifications: Certified Clinical Engineer (CCE) or relevant OEM training is a strong plus.
Work Location: In person
