Job Description ##

You will be integrated into the HUG biomedical and equipment service, within the Secteur d-Ingénierie Biomédicale (SIB), and will be supervised by excellent professionals.

This internship is part of 2 themes:

The development of the biomedical network of Suisse romande and biomedical benchmarks.
The development of the Service's Quality Management System (QMS).

The service relies on the Guide des Bonnes Pratiques Biomédicales and, as part of continuous improvement and its corrective action plan, you will contribute to updating the service's 2022 & 2024 self-assessments within its quality approach, and with a view to preparing for AFAQ Certification. In this context, you will also actively participate in updating quality documentation within the biomedical GED.

The biomedical network of suisse romande is organized around 3 Groupes Techniques biomédicaux romands (investments and technological monitoring, maintenance and operation, quality and vigilance); you will actively participate in the development of this network by taking up the progress of the various works carried out by these GT and consolidating future work (benchmarks and comparison between hospitals and clinics), create standards and make information available through communication tools to be built and fed. In this framework, you will be led to work and exchange with all hospital biomedical services in Suisse romande.

You will also have the opportunity to get concretely involved in several projects at different levels of progress or coordination.

Qualifications ##

You are currently undergoing university training in biomedical engineering (Master in progress or potentially Bachelor at the end of the course), or in Quality Systems (preferably with knowledge of medical devices), as well as experience (internship or other) in the hospital field or similar.

You have in-depth knowledge of standard office software (MS Office, sharepoint) and are generally comfortable with IT tools. Knowledge of communication tools (websites or others) and/or databases is a plus.
