Senior Clinical Research Associate - EU (Medical Devices)

Anteris® Technologies is a global structural heart company dedicated to revolutionizing cardiac care. With offices in Minneapolis, MN, US; Geneva, Switzerland; and Brisbane and Perth, Australia, we have a growing and inclusive team.

Our mission is to forge new frontiers in cardiac care by pioneering science-driven and measurable advancements to restore heart valve patients to healthy function. Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) technologies were originally designed for older, high-risk patients. Today, younger, more active patients need a better solution that will not just open and close but restore healthy heart function. We seek to restore healthy blood flow patterns by creating the world’s first biomimetic TAVR valve, DurAVR® THV. This cutting-edge valve, incorporating our proprietary ADAPT® anti-calcification technology, is designed to mimic the natural function of a healthy heart valve.

The Sr. Clinical Research Associate (CRA) will play a key role in the execution of our global pivotal and European trials, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance. This role combines CRO and vendor oversight with budget and agreement negotiation and site activation oversight, clinical monitoring and auditing responsibilities, including site visits to verify data accuracy, assess patient safety, and confirm site compliance with regulatory requirements.

At Anteris® Technologies, you’ll join a team committed to improving the lives of patients with aortic stenosis through groundbreaking structural heart solutions. This is an opportunity to make a measurable impact on patient outcomes while shaping the future of heart valve innovation.
