Job description

Summary

We are seeking a Staff Electrical Engineer to lead the electrical design and development of medical devices from concept through commercialization. This senior technical role will own key system architecture decisions and work cross-functionally to deliver safe, reliable, and manufacturable products that meet clinical, regulatory, and business requirements.

The ideal candidate combines hands-on engineering expertise with system-level thinking, balancing innovation with compliance, product reliability, and manufacturability.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

  • Lead electrical architecture and system design for medical devices across the full product lifecycle

  • Develop and integrate analog, digital, and power electronics, including battery-powered and portable systems

  • Design and implement BLDC motor control electronics, including drivers, sensing, and system integration

  • Support concept development, feasibility studies, and rapid prototyping to evaluate new technologies

  • Collaborate with firmware, mechanical, quality, regulatory, and manufacturing teams to deliver integrated product solutions

  • Oversee schematic capture, component selection, and PCB design, ensuring robust and compliant designs

  • Support board bring-up, embedded system integration, and debugging

  • Lead design transfer to manufacturing, including DFM/DFA reviews and production ramp support

  • Investigate field issues and reliability challenges, performing root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions

  • Ensure development follows medical device design controls, risk management, and applicable safety standards

Requirements

  • BS in Electrical Engineering or related field

  • 8+ years of electrical engineering experience, ideally within medical devices or other regulated industries

  • Strong experience designing analog, digital, and mixed-signal electronics

  • Hands-on expertise with power electronics, battery-powered systems, and motor control (BLDC)
