Job Summary
This is a senior electrical engineering position responsible for the design, development, and product sustaining of low-power, battery-operated medical device electronics, focusing on wearable device wireless connectivity (Bluetooth Low Energy/BLE) and EMI/EMC/ESD robustness. The role requires a strong understanding of analog and digital circuit design, proven expertise in leading technical projects, and managing multiple tasks concurrently. This individual will collaborate closely with other electrical engineering team members, outside contract design houses, vendors, and the manufacturing, software, mechanical, and quality groups. As a senior technical contributor, this individual collaborates cross-functionally and reports directly to the Sr. Manager of Electrical Engineering.
We seek an engaged thinker with exceptional communication skills who can independently pursue a variety of tasks as part of an interdisciplinary team. This team member will serve as an individual contributor on the R&D team, focused on the design, development, and test of the electronics in low power RF-controlled wearable medical devices for infusion pump systems. Execution to schedule with high quality deliverables is key to success.
Responsibilities:
- Oversees the design, development, implementation, and analysis of technical products and systems
- Creates schematics and circuit board layouts, overseeing fabrication and assembly of prototypes with outside vendors
- Applies principles of electronics and electrical design, including digital, analog, RF, and mixed signal systems
- Independently performs experiments, including development of test methods, measurement, and analysis
- Troubleshoots system design issues using systematic root cause analysis methods
- Provides resolutions to a diverse range of complex problems, focusing on data-driven decision making
- Presents concepts, analysis, and conclusions to stakeholders both technical and non-technical
- Creates and meets schedules for complex projects with cross-functional dependencies
- Performs other duties as required
Basic Qualifications:
- Bachelor’s Degree and 5+ years of relevant experience, or Master’s Degree and 3+ years of relevant experience
