About Level Zero

Level Zero is pioneering next-generation biosensor technology for precise, real-time monitoring of critical endocrine biomarkers. Recognised as one of the top 20 startups across all categories worldwide at Tech Crunch Disrupt 2024 - and backed by top-tier organisations like redalpine, SOSV and Entrepreneur First - we’re pushing the boundaries of biochemistry and nanotechnology to revolutionize personalised health.

Founded by two seasoned engineers, we bring extensive experience in R&D, technical innovation, and commercial strategy to transform the way people monitor their health. Our mission is bold: to revolutionise health management by delivering clinical-grade data directly to individuals, wherever they are.

We’re seeking driven innovators to join us in pushing the boundaries of biosensing and health tech, making personalised health monitoring a reality for everyone. To achieve this ambitious vision, we’re assembling the best team in the world - dedicated to turning cutting-edge science into life-changing, real-world solutions.

We’re looking for a Hardware Electronics Engineer to take ownership of the electronics platform that powers our next-generation biosensor devices. Working closely with the founders and a multidisciplinary team across firmware, mechanical, optical and systems, you’ll translate product goals into robust architectures and executable development plans, taking designs from early concepts through prototypes, verification and release.

• Take technical ownership of the electronics architecture for our medical device, driving development from early concept through prototype, verification and product release
• Design mixed-signal electronic systems, integrating optical modules, battery management, power electronics, motor drivers, user interface electronics and supporting sensors
• Design schematic capture and multi-layer PCBs, selecting appropriate components and integrating commercial modules into robust product designs
• Develop and validate battery charging, power management and low-power system architectures for portable medical devices
• Design interfaces for miniature cameras, LEDs, pumps, motors and user interface hardware including buttons, indicators and status LEDs
• Bring up, debug and validate prototype hardware using laboratory test equipment, identifying root causes and implementing robust design improvements
• Work closely with firmware, mechanical, optical and systems engineers to ensure seamless hardware integration across the product
• Plan and scope electronics development activities, identifying technical risks, defining development priorities and estimating work required to achieve project milestones
• Own the electronics design documentation, including schematics, design calculations, test plans, verification reports and manufacturing documentation
• Lead electronics risk management activities, maintaining Design FMEAs and supporting system-level risk analysis throughout product development
• Work with PCB manufacturers, assembly houses and component suppliers to support prototype builds, design for manufacture (DFM) and design for test (DFT)
• Identify and establish the laboratory equipment, software tools, suppliers and development processes required to build a world-class electronics function
• Contribute as a hands-on individual contributor while helping shape the future electronics capability as the team grows

• Master's degree (or equivalent experience) in Electronic Engineering or a closely related discipline. With 3-5 years' industry experience developing electronic products from concept through prototype and into manufacture
• Strong experience designing mixed-signal electronic systems including analogue, digital and power electronics
• Experience with schematic capture and multi-layer PCB design using Altium Designer (or an equivalent ECAD package)
• Experience selecting components, designing circuits and integrating commercially available modules into complete electronic systems
• Experience designing battery-powered embedded systems including battery charging, power regulation and power management
• Experience designing interfaces for…
