Sr Mechanical Systems Engineer

Lead Engineer focused on Mechanical Design and Systems Engineering for PFA Generator

Field Medical is a compelling career-building opportunity in electrophysiology. Founded by Steven Mickelsen, the electrophysiologist who invented the pulsed field ablation technology behind Boston Scientific’s Farapulse, the company is now applying that same innovation engine to ventricular tachycardia, one of the most underpenetrated segments in EP, where physicians still lack the tools they need.

The leadership bench reflects expertise. In March 2026, Field Medical named Mark Turco, a cardiologist and successful Med Tech executive with 30+ years across venture-backed cardiovascular startups and large-cap companies, as CEO. Turco previously led JC Medical’s TAVR system through its 2024 acquisition by Edwards Lifesciences, adding another proven exit alongside Mickelsen’s Farapulse track record. The company’s clinical advisory circle includes recognized names in cardiac EP, giving this role direct visibility into how real-world clinical expertise shapes product design.

About the Role:

We are seeking a highly skilled and detail-oriented Sr. System Mechanical Engineer to serve as the lead mechanical engineer and owner of the mechanical design for the capital equipment (generator) that the company is developing. Building on an existing design, this person will drive design improvements, problem solving, technical investigations as needed, cost reduction, and design for manufacturing to ensure the product is robust, manufacturable, and ready for production.

This role requires strong technical leadership and close coordination across engineering, quality, manufacturing, supply chain, and external partners. This person will guide and direct external support engineers and drafters through detailed design execution, design and configuration control, and transfer to production of new and revised designs. The role includes creating and directing the creation of drawings, bills of materials, specifications, engineering analyses such as tolerance stack-ups and heat dissipation simulations, and technical reports, as well as reviewing and releasing these deliverables.

Your Responsibilities Will Include:

• Own the mechanical design of the company’s capital equipment generator, including overall design architecture, detailed component design, and integration of subassemblies.
• Lead design improvements to an existing baseline design to improve performance, reliability, manufacturability, serviceability, and cost.
• Drive structured problem solving and technical investigations related to design issues, failures, and performance gaps, and document conclusions and recommended actions.
• Apply design for manufacturing and cost reduction principles to mature the design for scalable production.
• Guide and direct external support engineers and drafters in the creation and refinement of parts, assemblies, drawings, and related design documentation.
• Establish, maintain, and enforce design and configuration control for mechanical components, assemblies, and associated documentation.
• Create and direct the creation of detailed drawings, bills of materials, specifications, engineering analyses, and technical reports.
• Perform or oversee engineering analyses such as tolerance stack-ups, thermal or heat dissipation simulations, and other studies needed to support design decisions.
• Review and release drawings, BOMs, specifications, analyses, and reports in accordance with company processes and design control requirements.
• Partner cross-functionally with manufacturing, quality, supply chain, and other engineering disciplines to support prototype builds, design verification, issue resolution, and transfer to production.
• Support development…
