* About This Role:

**## iRhythm is seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to lead our sustaining engineering (end-of-life, cost-down) and failure analysis efforts for our existing products. This role is focused on troubleshooting, process optimization, and ensuring reliable, compliant production. The role will be a member of the Electrical Engineering design and test team within iRhythm’s R&D (Product Development) Department. The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, collaborative, and comfortable working across disciplines to sustain high-quality, life-critical devices.##

What You Will Be Doing
* Lead electrical lifecycle activities for iRhythm’s commercialized medical devices.
* Identify and qualify replacements for end-of-life (EOL) electrical components to maintain supply continuity.
* Execute cost-down and design optimization projects to improve product reliability and reduce manufacturing costs.
* Perform failure analysis for field and manufacturing issues; conduct root cause investigations.
* Support design transfer activities and ensure smooth communication between R&D, Manufacturing, and Quality teams.
* Review and update electrical schematics, PCB layouts, and BOMs as needed for sustaining changes.
* Prepare and execute test protocols, test reports, and related medical technical documentation. Update FMEA, Requirements, and other documentation per FDA design control requirements.
* Foster a close relationship with iRhythm’s supply chain, manufacturing, and quality departments, as well as iRhythm’s external suppliers. Provide technical mentorship to junior engineers.##
** What We Want To See
*** Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or a related field (Master’s preferred).
* 5–8 years of experience in electrical engineering, preferably in the medical device or other regulated industries.
* Strong understanding of analog and digital circuit design, PCB design, and component selection.
* Experience with component lifecycle management, EOL replacements, and cost reduction initiatives.
* Familiarity with schematic and layout tools (Altium a plus) as well as circuit analysis and simulation tools (SPICE).
* Hands-on lab experience including soldering, data acquisition, debugging techniques, and lab test equipment: multi-meters, oscilloscopes, power supplies, etc.
* Experience with a scripting language for analyzing and plotting data (Python a plus).
* Comfortable working with minimal supervision.
* Excellent documentation, communication, and cross-functional collaboration skills.## Ways to Stand Out
* Proficiency in root cause analysis tools (Fishbone, 5 Whys, FMEA) and statistical methods (SPC, DOE).
* Experience conducting root cause analysis and implementing corrective actions (CAPA).
* Familiarity with design controls, risk management, and verification/validation processes under FDA Regulation.
* Understanding of 60601 testing standards.
* Ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment and manage multiple sustaining initiatives concurrently.## Work Arrangement This is an hybrid position with a requirement for 50% presence in our San Francisco, CA office + lab. Will need to be flexible to work 100% onsite as needed.
