Our story began with a passionate idea that we could change the world.... And to be honest, we’ve never stopped believing that... In 1986 it was a simple concept that microbiology teamed with innovation and clinical contribution could eliminate an issue that was profoundly impacting the healthcare industry – HIV acquired through needle-stick injuries.
In Australia, we lived out our dream. Investing years into R&D to create the safest containment system in the world and taking on the industry status quo to petition for higher standards in sharps protection, we witnessed an 80+ percent reduction in disposal-related needlestick injuries nationwide. And then we kept going...
We are seeking a skilled and detail-oriented engineer with a strong background in mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) systems to support the new design and modification of our medical waste treatment facilities within all Daniels Health sites in North America. This role will focus on developing new facilities and improving existing facilities, integrating treatment technologies, and ensuring that all designs meet operational, safety, and environmental standards. The ideal candidate will have experience managing multiple concurrent design projects from conception through the drawing and permitting phase. Additionally, they will support the onsite build out team with submittal reviews and drawing clarifications.
