  • Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering, Biomedical Engineering, or a related field.
  • Hands-on experience developing and maintaining requirements traceability matrices (RTMs) to link system, software, and hardware requirements; creating and updating risk management files (FMEAs); and managing Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) to control BOM revisions and PCB updates
  • Demonstrated experience leading hardware development projects from concept to production, ideally in a startup or fast-paced environment
  • Proficiency in SPICE-based circuit simulation (e.g., LTSpice or PSpice); expert-level for schematic capture and PCB layout (e.g. Altium Designer or Cadence Allegro); Python for automating test procedures and data logging
  • Hands-on experience with hardware debugging, test equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, etc.), and test automation
  • Excellent problem-solving, analytical, and critical thinking skills
  • Strong communication, collaboration, and interpersonal skills, with the ability to effectively manage external relationships and work across interdisciplinary teams (mechanical, optical, software, quality, regulatory)
  • Proactive, self-motivated, and able to thrive in a dynamic, evolving startup culture

IDEAL EXPERIENCE

  • Experience designing and testing medical device electrical equipment per IEC 60601 and ISO 13485
  • Experience navigating IEC 60601 risk management processes (per ISO 14971) and supported CE/FDA submissions, including preparing technical les for regulatory audits
  • Experience with CAD (SolidWorks, Autodesk, etc)
  • Experience with embedded C for microcontroller/ rmware integration on ARM- or PIC-based platforms
  • Knowledge of signal processing and image processing techniques relevant to biomedical imaging
