Duties & Responsibilities:

Provide active mentorship and technical guidance to Staff-level engineers, including the review of schematics and PCB layouts to ensure the consistent application of best practices.

Lead cross-functional design reviews involving Mechanical, Optical, and Software teams to ensure the seamless integration of electrical subsystems into complex laser or RF systems.

Define project scope, priorities, and schedules with a high level of independence, ensuring all technical deliverables align with departmental and product development goals.

Own the risk management portion of the design process, providing technical input into design specifications to ensure all safety and regulatory hurdles are addressed prior to production.

Maintain an up-to-date understanding of industry technology trends to identify opportunities for innovation and serve as a thought leader for the electrical engineering team.

Assume responsibility for continued education and professional development to remain informed on evolving engineering best practices, technologies, and tools.

Design sensor interfaces and power supplies for high-power laser and RF applications while providing technical input into risk management and ensuring regulatory compliance for complex medical systems.

Collaborate with PCB, component, and tooling suppliers and vendors to optimize engineering designs for performance, reliability, and cost-efficiency throughout the product development lifecycle.

Develop schematics and PCB layouts using industry-standard design tools.

Design, integrate, and test analog and digital control circuits.

Lead the transfer of new products from development into production, working closely with Manufacturing and Quality teams.

Provide technical input into design specifications, risk management, and product development activities.

Ensure electrical safety, EMC, and regulatory compliance across product designs.

Develop and execute test plans to support design verification and validation of electronic systems.

Collaborate closely with systems, mechanical, UI/UX and software engineering to support system-level architecture and implementation.

Troubleshoot complex electronic systems and perform root-cause analysis of new and existing designs.

Support continuous improvement of existing products, processes, and engineering practices.

Other duties as needed or required.
