• Ability to use risk analysis and knowledge of the ‘state of the art’ to create an appropriate software safety concept and to contribute to the system safety concept.
• Extensive RTOS experience (particularly QNX and Linux PREEMPT-RT) for safety critical software.

• Experience of cyber security principles and the documentation/analysis needed to demonstrate compliance with the FDA’s cybersecurity guidance.
• Developing software to IEC 62304 class C and the application of ISO 14971 to complex software-controlled medical devices.
