Biomechanical engineer and R&D medical device technology specialist, Dave Walker has joined the J&J Vision surgical team as a product manager.
Born and raised in Sydney, Walker was previously with IDE Group, a small consultancy focused on medical device development, and medical device company, Boston Scientific. Though he’s spent 20 years in the medical device business, the eye health world is new to Walker, but one he said he’s looking forward to coming to grips with given the cutting-edge technology employed in the sector.
“I’m most looking forward to launching new products - I love new technology,” he said, adding there’s lots happening in J&J’s R&D labs at the moment, but nothing he can reveal publicly, yet.
Welcoming Walker to the team was newly promoted J&J ANZ country manager, Shaun Anderson. “Bringing Dave into the team will enable us to give more focus to training, education and support to help people make the most of our unique technologies. His interest in technology and calm demeanour make him the perfect fit for our team.”
