Job Description

Senior Electrical Engineer

Experience:
Seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer for a state-of-the-art medical device product development program. This person will be responsible for the concept, development, and production-related activities of embedded electrical circuit designs within a multi-disciplinary project team. The candidate should be familiar with a broad range of electrical engineering design concepts from low-level analog to high-speed digital circuitry. This position requires a fair amount of autonomy and clever thinking as our projects involve inventing new and better ways of solving the many engineering challenges that projects are confronted with.

Responsibilities:

• Design and develop circuit boards containing a mix of analog and digital circuitry through the creation of schematics, management of the PCB layout, and DFx activities
• Perform testing, debug, and failure analysis of circuitry as well as the creation of test fixtures to aid in both the development and production of circuit boards
• Create clear and concise documentation including block diagrams, electrical requirements, design descriptions, test procedures, and failure analysis procedures
• Develop and design new prototype devices using originality and ingenuity
• Decompose system requirements to derive electrical specifications and architectures
• Apply experience with electronic design techniques and integration to solve complex problems
• Work in a team environment with mechanical, controls, systems, software, and test engineers to facilitate rapid development cycles
• Understand and follow processes, design control practices, and documentation requirements
• Manage external design partners and suppliers
• Manage your time effectively across multiple assignments of varying scope and complexity
• Provide subject matter expertise and cross-functional contribution across the company

Qualification:

• BS in Electrical Engineering required
• Must have a minimum of 5 years of experience in the development of complex electro-mechanical devices
• Demonstrated experience in development of electrical circuit board schematics and PCB layouts (Altium preferred)
• Demonstrated electrical design experience from concept through production
• Experience working in multi-disciplinary engineering teams to solve complex problems through iterative system design, integration, and test
• Must be skilled in writing and working with specifications and detailed design documents
• Proficient in debugging circuitry through hands-on testing, analysis and analog/digital simulation, including the use of common electrical test equipment (DMMs, oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, waveform generators, etc.)
• Experience mentoring junior engineers
• Experience in development, characterization, and analysis of novel sensor designs
• Solid grasp of signal integrity, signal timing, power consumption, and design for ESD and EMC compliance
• Experience with RF design and test practices a plus
• Must be able to set priorities and work independently under aggressive timelines and date-driven schedules
• Knowledge of analytical computing software (MATLAB, Python, Labview, etc.) for measurement automation and data analysis
• Experience with embedded software development in C/C++ for common microcontroller platforms (ARM, PIC, AVR, etc.) a strong plus
• Familiarity with electrical safety and medical device product design standards and practices (IEC 60601-1, ISO 13485, and other applicable standards) a plus
