• Defines design requirements and hardware specifications based on customer or user requirements.
• Contributes to the development and documentation of electronic system architectures.
• Creates designs of analog and digital electronic circuit schematics for microcontroller-based systems, meeting performance objectives.
• Analyzes circuits using calculation and simulation methods to assess performance limits, effects of environmental and load stresses, and timing interfaces to ensure consistent performance in safety critical applications.
• Ensures successful integration of electrical design with mechanical and software elements of the system.
• Completes deliverables related to design of systems and sub-systems of the overall electrical architecture.
• Develops, modifies, and approves electrical design documentation, specifications, and drawings.
• Supervises/coordinated engineers and/or technicians assigned to execute the project.
• Defines appropriate test methods to verify designs meet their performance requirements.
• Mentor the layout of circuit assemblies to meet emissions and immunity performance requirements and design for manufacturability guidelines.
• Good experience in designing products for meeting EMI/EMC/ESD compliance requirements.
• Transitions products to manufacturing and ensures robust products and manufacturing processes.
• Develops and maintains an effective and collaborative working relationship with internal and external development partners.
• Resolves competing constraints between interrelated functions (engineering, purchasing, manufacturing, regulatory, marketing, etc.) required to deliver the product to market.
• Implements data acquisition and analysis techniques to characterize design performance.
• Executes protocols and testing required to validate the safety and effectiveness of the design(s).
• Leads the troubleshooting and problem-solving efforts related to electrical aspects of devices and associated systems.
• Creates and communicates design/test plans, tasks, deliverables, and status. Manages time and resources to meet committed schedule milestones.

• Graduate or Postgraduate in Electrical or Electronics or related Engineering and 15+ years of experience. Prior experience in infusion pump domain is a plus.
• A demonstrated track record in electromechanical hardware development, preferably medical devices or other highly regulated products such as military hardware.
• Knowledge and experience in design of embedded microcontroller-based electronics devices, including FPGA-based, digital, and analog design.
• Experience testing electronic devices to meet immunity and emissions requirements.
• Knowledge and experience using CAD systems for printed circuit board schematic design and layout (Altium Designer preferred), Matlab, and data acquisition software (LabVIEW).
• Good knowledge of standards such as IEC 60601, IEC 61010, UL, ANSI, AIM, and ASTM.
• Specific experience in design and development of sensing subsystems highly desirable.
