Biomedical Jobs in India




                               
Biomedical Engineering:It is the subsidiary branch of engineering, which is very vast and hence there large number of Job opportunities for a Biomedical Engineer. 

 A biomedical engineer has to  work  With Doctors.In most cases a biomedical engineer works in a Hospital.

But BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING IN INDIA has Completely different Scenarios Compared to developed Nations Like US,Germany,Denmark,Canada etc.

In India, Most Biomedical Engineers are not well Paid,even Under paid but definitely,there is always requirement of biomedical,so they dont remain atleast Unemployed.


AT HOSPITAL (Multi-speciality):-


Salary :-12000rs -15000rs   (For Fresher)

Hospital Biomedical Manager  :- 25000rs-35000rs,
But ,it requires Experience also of around (2-5yrs).

TIER 3:  3rd Grade Small Companies =Lowest paying

 SALARY :- 8000rs-12000 For Fresher in Distributor Based Companies.

Lot of Travelling to Multiple location,Rough Work,less Knowledgeable,Only Small Break down ,Troubleshoots.
Growth is very less.

Most biomedical engineers have to work in such low paying companies at initial stage.




Tier 1:-Original Manufacturing COMPANIES (OEM):- 
Highest Paying Companies for Biomedical engineers are the Multinational Companies like :-

GE HealthCare  ( Origin :-US)
Siemens  (Origin :-Germany)









Drager  (Germany)
Freshnius (Germany)
Medtronic (US)
Abbott    (US)
BAXTER (US)
St. Jude Medical  now part of (Abbott)
Philips (Netherland)
Nihon Kohden (Japan)
Johnson & Johnson (US)
Boston Scientific  (US)
Smith & Nephew  (UK)
Olympus       (Japan)
Stryker        (US)
Intuitive Surgical  (US)

Indian Companies : Original Manufacturing :-




Skanray       (India)
Allenger       (INDIA)
Phoenix Medical  (INDIA)

Medical Imaging: GE Healthcare, Siemens, Philips

Cardiac Rhythm Management: Medtronic, St. Jude Medical, Boston Scientific

Orthopaedic implants: Johnson & Johnson, Stryker, Zimmer, Biomet, Smith and Nephew

Stents: Abbott (Medtronic and Boston Scientific as well, J&J quit the market a few years ago)

Heart valves: Edwards Lifesciences (St. Jude Medical and Medtronic as well)

Neuromodulation: Medtronic, St. Jude Medical and Boston Scientific

Robotic surgery - Intuitive Surgical

Some names are:
Skanray Healthcare (they acquired L&T Healthcare), Panacea Medical (radiotherapy and imaging), Perfint Healthcare (image guidance for cancer surgery), SMT (stents), Pacetronix (cardiac rhythm management devices and equipment, using expertise provided by US companies), MediVed (cardiac rhythm management), Trivitron Healthcare (patient monitoring and diagnostic equipment), Meditronix Corporation (imaging), Aditya Imaging IT (subsidiary of Sun Pharma, image processing for microscopic imaging).


Salary :- 23000rs-35000rs    For Fresher 
Service engineers :- mostly  23000-27000rs

Application Engineers :- gets more salary like 28000rs-35000rs for fresher or 1yr Experience.

Sales Representative :- Highest Salary +plus Incentive but requires Experience of 1-3yrs. 
Package :-7-10 Lac per Annum

 
Engineers working in such multi-national Companies gets Job Satisfaction,Time to time Increment ,Great Job oppurtinities to learn,to interact with Surgeons,Doctors and Hospital Staff .
They get to learn Continously new things,development,Seminars,Conferences etc.

For engineers working in MNC for more than 5 yrs

Their Salary Increments are likely :-60,000rs-80,000rs
For Service Engineers itself.

Note :- In Biomedical in India,Service  Engineers are less paid .
But,MNC takes care of Service engineers very well atleast.

Again, Application Engineers get Good Salary Compared to Service Engineers.

Sales Representative in MNCs having :-5yrs-8yrs 
can make around 12-15lpm (lac per annum).

Also,even In short Span,If one gets to higher positions like Area Sales Manager,Zonal Manager etc, Can make Upto Average IITian Package like 12-35 LPM (lac per annum).


But, Most Biomedical Fresher have to Struggle a lot and it takes years to get into Such MNC. But yes, There examples of Freshers getting directly into MNCs like Nihon kohden,Freshnius etc they do offer 23000rs on hand Salary.
1-2yrs helps u to get in MNC more likely.

Also IITs,NITs etc colleges Offer Good Campus Placements where Companies like GE Healthcare,Siemens,Philips etc Recruits Fresher from Nit,IIT etc with Good package.

But, other than IIT,NITs there are very less even state goverment Colleges and Private colleges which provides even any kind of good placements.

Most Goverment Colleges even they dont know what actually biomedical engineers are and they dont invite Good Companies which can Train them and offer pretty decent Packages.

I am here sharing one example of Goverment College in Gujarat for Biomedical Placement.

Example  :- L.D Engineering College ,Ahmedabad & Goverment Engineering College,Gandhinagar Both are state Goverment colleges having Biomedical deparment and they invited Distributor based company which offering Rs9000 per month, most of the time they dont invite Biomedical companies ,they Offfield companies which have nothing to do with Biomedical. They also Invited Medical billings Meditab which was offering  rs19,500 per month but it has nothing related to do With Biomedical Field,Because the work in Call center based companies can any Graduate can do ,so why need of Biomedical degreee and the growth is not there even.

The Bottom line is even University, Goverment Colleges doesnt know what biomedical and What scope is there.


Biomedical is Developing In India, And the Real Value of Biomedical engineers is only in Big Multinational Companies, they pay well, Train them and Acknowledge their Talent.


Tier 2 Companies :-
Company which are not manufacturing but manufacturing Reagents Some not all.


AGD Biomedical

 
Salary :- 12000-15000rs 
Growth is High

After getting Field Experience of  2-3 yrs,there are good chances of Getting Good salary by leaving and joining new companies or even joining these companies also if u have worked in other companies of same grade.

Refurbinish Equipments Company like Medinnova,Krishpa,Ks biomed.
Low Salary :-12k  
Growth is There 
Learning Oppurtinities are more.


JOB  Profiles Roles :-

Service Engineer :- To service equipments Installation,maintenace,Calibration etc.


Clinical Application Specialist:Biomedical engineer have   to train doctors for operation of medical equipments like Anesthesia,Ventilator,Patient Monitors,Neuro Microscope,Cautery etc.

Sales Engineer :- To sale Medical Devices to Doctor or Surgeon ,Negotiate,Technical specs,Clinical features,Safety Parameter of device ,to Convince Doctor to Buy.
Salary+Incentives.

Quality assurance Engineers :- Check as per ISO Safety standars,Quality Management.

Sales Represnatative :- This Position is given in MNC or Original Manufacturing Companies.
Research & Development : Mostly Top Companies like Philips,Siemens etc, recruit IIT,Nit or even Students from Tier3 colleges get to perform Research.

Additionally.
Salary in Biomedical depends on multiple Factors like  :-

City :- Tier 1, Tier2 etc.
Companies  - Tier1,Tier 2,Tier 3
Job Profiles
Experience
Demand 


1. Cities :- Tier 1 City like Bengaluru,Hyderabad,Mumbai,Chennai etc. have Comapanies offering 
almost 20,000rs to 24,000rs per month ,even in hospital a biomedical engineer can get upto 22,000rs
.But, these are Expensive cities, so living expense,food,transportation,accomodation is also high,But Growth Opportunity is very Good.

2.Companies :- 
Tier 1 :- Original Manufacturing companies , i.e In india mostly Foreign Multi-nationals like GE Health care,Drager,Philips,Medtronic Pays Highest.
Tier 2 :- Refurbinished Companies -Low pay
Tier 3 :- Distributor based - Lowest Pay

Job Profiles : 
Service -Less Salary
