About The Position

GE Healthcare provides transformational medical technologies and services that are shaping a new age of patient care. Our expertise in medical imaging and information technologies, medical diagnostics, life support solutions, patient monitoring systems, performance improvement, drug discovery, and biopharmaceutical manufacturing technologies is helping clinicians around the world re-imagine new ways to predict, diagnose, inform and treat disease, so their patients can live their lives to the fullest. GE Healthcare V&V Engineering co-ops work on a variety of assignments with responsibilities and hands-on involvement in areas of system and software verification. There will be project-oriented assignments where a manager and mentor are assigned for support. These positions will work primarily with Infant Care products such as Incubators and Warmer. V&V Engineering Co-ops are integral members of the Verification team, supporting the development and execution of verification strategies that ensure product quality, design robustness, and compliance with system requirements. Working on Infant Care products, Co-ops develop test procedures, execute verification testing, and apply both structured and creative test methodologies to identify design defects, performance gaps, and opportunities for improvement before product release. In this role, Co-ops collaborate closely with systems, software, electrical, and mechanical engineers to understand product requirements and evaluate system performance, functionality, and usability. Through hands-on work with prototype systems, they leverage engineering problem-solving skills to challenge product designs, uncover potential failure modes, and contribute to the delivery of safe, reliable, and high-quality healthcare solutions.
