"A multidisciplinary career with unique impact"
TTP life scientists are laying a new path as they travel it. As one of the fastest-growing areas in the business, our life scientists are applying science in inventive new ways, from improving the efficiency of existing biological processes in microfluidic instruments to generating novel biological technology offerings.
Our life scientists work side-by-side with our engineers and physicists to create disruptive life science technologies. Our multidisciplinary collaborations are exciting and unique – and the results are unparalleled, with products moving in just a few short years from TTP’s facilities, to hospitals and laboratories around the world.

“If you’re prepared to step out of your comfort zone, we’ll grow your skills in exciting new directions”
Solid-state or mechanically-driven? Battery-powered or energy-harvested? Electronic and RF Engineers at TTP are direction-setters, working in project teams that are empowered to conceive entirely different approaches to meet a technology need. Together, you will face unfamiliar problems, explore the very best solutions and then follow them through to production.
From analogue and digital hardware design, through to RF and antenna design: Whether you are a broad generalist who thrives on variety, or a deep specialist eager to apply your skills into a new technical domain, TTP provides an unparalleled opportunity to grow your technical and commercial skills.

Designers at TTP have a vital role in developing and designing next-generation products and technologies. They are curious designers with an insightful and creative approach to product design, who easily engage with colleagues and customers. They enjoy inventing and designing products that impact people’s lives, products that look, feel and function in a way that engage people emotionally and practically. They are not afraid to question conventions in the search for the best possible solution for the end user.
As part of a multidisciplinary team you will collaborate with designers, scientists, engineers, technologists, clinicians and patients on some of the most fulfilling design work of your career. It will give you the opportunity to learn far beyond your discipline.
Apart from product design you can get involved in prototyping, testing and resolving detailed technical problems. You will be given the space to invent, the freedom to act, and the trust to deliver.

“In a small team, everyone matters and everyone has to look at the big picture”
Working in small teams with a high degree of devolved responsibility and autonomy, TTP’s mechanical engineers can look at world-first products on the market and take pride in the knowledge that their own contribution to the development of the product was vital to the successful outcome.
Our mechanical engineers enjoy responsibilities that enable them to have a large impact, covering a wide range of mechanical engineering – clever little mechanisms, microfluidics, sprays, impact mechanics, biomechanics, passive sensors, electro-mechanical systems, manufacturing, and so on – but also covering project leadership, client collaborations, selling, technology initiatives and business development.

“We offer an ideal opportunity for technical specialists seeking variety”
We periodically seek people with a highly specialist skillset to work as part of our multidisciplinary teams. These roles are technical in nature with a bespoke element to the requirements – either a niche technical discipline or specific industry experience.
Specialists will hone their craft through working on a series of different client projects. They will also be encouraged to look for new commercial opportunities, lead internal R&D projects with the goal of commercialising IP, and even sow the seed of a new business idea via TTP's model of incubating startups.
