Systems Engineer; m​/f​/d

As a first-tier supplier to our renowned business partner Roche Diagnostics in Rotkreuz
, we are currently looking for a motivated and dedicated Systems Engineer for a temporary assignment until the end of 2027, with high probability of extension.

Roche is shaping the future of critical care diagnostics. Blood gas & electrolyte (BGE) analysis is used in critical point-of-care settings where time and quality matter. NPC R&D BGE is responsible for the development of new and improved BGE analysis systems and the life cycle maintenance of existing BGE products. Within NPC R&D, System Development and Integration is where everything comes together: a team of dedicated scientists, engineers, and lab technicians ensures that hardware and software fit together seamlessly with sensor and reagent technologies to form robust and reliable BGE analysis systems.

The company is looking for a new team member in their Systems Engineering group to help ensure the development success of their complex diagnostics systems, consisting of fluidics, software, instruments, biochemical sensors, and reagents. In this role, you will own and manage system-level topics and documentation, mainly in the form of requirements engineering, interface management, conceptual work, and change control management.

Furthermore, you will support the alignment and integration of different system components using Model-Based Systems Engineering and champion the use of agentic AI in requirements engineering.

The Perfect Candidate for this role possesses a background in development within a regulated environment, preferably in the IVD(R) sector, and has 3-5 years of practical experience in system definition, requirements engineering, and systems thinking. They should demonstrate a strong grasp of systems engineering methodologies and an understanding of multiple technology domains, including electronics, mechanics, and software. Additionally, the candidate should exhibit a clear and structured working style, proactive collaboration skills, and the ability to maintain both a big-picture perspective and attention to detail.
