Electrical Engineer

Job Description Job Description

Company: RESOLVEM Inc. |

Location:

Irvine, CA / Carlsbad, CA (On-site) | Full-time | Entry level

Most entry-level EE jobs put you in a corner running the same test for a year. This one doesn't.

At RESOLVEM Inc., you'll touch the entire medical device development lifecycle in your first year
. That's the kind of experience that normally takes 5+ years to accumulate at a big company. You'll design circuits that go into actual field operation of medical line test equipment and medical products, hunt down failures at the bench, and learn the regulated-industry skills that make medical device engineers stand out. All this with direct mentorship from senior engineers who've done this for decades.

We're an engineering services firm specializing in R&D design support of new products and transferring product designs to design control and manufacturing. We help medical device companies bring their designs under design control, prepare them for mass manufacturing, and support their pilot manufacturing and transition to commercial-scale production. Because we work across multiple clients and products, you won't spend years on one subsystem.

You'll build breadth and depth, fast.

• Design real circuits. Capture and maintain schematics for analog, digital, power, and mixed-signal circuits, including sensor interfaces and microcontroller-based subsystems. Perform PCB layout in Altium Designer (OrCAD, PADS, or KiCad also welcome), applying IPC standards and DFM/DFT principles. Run LTspice/PSpice simulations to prove your design before it hits copper.
• Own the bench. Build and use custom benchtop test equipment and fixtures. Measure and debug with oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers, power meters, DMMs, and programmable supplies/loads. Automate it all with Python, MATLAB, or LabVIEW.
• Hunt down failures. Perform electrical failure analysis and root cause analysis where your findings drive real design decisions. Create investigation reports and support corrective actions.
• Review and improve designs. Participate in design reviews, compare design revisions, and create Engineering Change Orders (ECOs) that keep controlled documentation current.
• Learn the regulated world fast. Work within a certified quality management system (ISO 13485, FDA 21 CFR 820) and design control processes. Contribute to Design History File (DHF) deliverables and requirements traceability. Apply ISO 14971 risk management (DFMEA, hazard analysis inputs), support IEC 62304 software lifecycle activities, and get hands‑on with EMI/EMC design and pre‑compliance testing for IEC 60601-1-2.
• Build complete products, not just boards. Select components; create BOMs, purchasing specifications, and engineering drawings; support obsolescence assessments. Develop firmware for microcontroller-based designs using C/C++ and protocols like I2C, SPI, and UART. Author and execute V&V protocols and reports, support test method validation (TMV), and contribute to process development, inspection criteria, statistical data analysis, and equipment qualification (IQ/OQ/PQ).
• See your work ship. Collaborate with mechanical, systems, software, test, quality, and manufacturing engineers, plus customers and contract manufacturers, from prototype through pilot manufacturing to commercial‑scale production. Communicate your results through written reports, presentations, and design reviews.

• BS in Electrical Engineering from an accredited university
• 1-3 years of work experience
• Note: must have at least one year full time paid commercial experience
• Hands‑on schematic, simulation, and PCB layout/design experience
• Comfort at the lab bench (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, spectrum analyzers,…
