• Define system-level architecture in collaboration with optics, embedded software, FPGA, mechanical, and image-processing teams.

• Select and qualify key components including processors, FPGA/SoC devices, image sensor interfaces, memories, power management ICs, and communication modules.

• Develop schematic designs and review multilayer PCB layouts for high-speed and mi-xed-signal applications.

• Support hardware platform standardization and scalability across future product generations.

• Drive design reviews, technical assessments, and hardware architecture decisions.
Imaging Electronics & Video Processing Hardware

• Develop hardware platforms supporting HD, Full HD, and 4K endoscopic imaging systems.

• Design video acquisition and processing electronics for CMOS image sensor-based camera systems.

• Implement interfaces for camera heads, video processors, displays, and recording systems.

• Optimize signal paths to maximize image quality, reduce noise, and minimize latency.

• Support integration of image enhancement and visualization technologies.

• Collaborate with image-processing teams to achieve clinical image quality objectives.
High-Speed Digital & Sensor Integration

• Design and validate high-speed interfaces including MIPI CSI-2, LVDS, HDMI, USB 3.0, Gigabit Ethernet, and SPI.

• Ensure proper impedance control, differential pair routing, signal integrity, and timing performance.

• Develop sensor interfacing circuitry including power sequencing, clock generation, synchronization, and control functions.

• Support FPGA and processor-based imaging platforms.

• Troubleshoot complex signal integrity and communication issues during board bring-up and validation.
Power Electronics & Embedded Hardware

• Design and validate power architectures including DC-DC converters, power distribution networks, isolated supplies, and protection circuits.

• Develop hardware supporting embedded processors, motor controllers, user interfaces, and peripheral devices.

• Ensure low-noise power design suitable for sensitive imaging electronics.

• Address thermal, reliability, and long-term operational requirements.
Compliance, Safety & Reliability

• Design hardware in accordance with applicable medical device standards and regulatory requirements.

• Support compliance with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, ISO 13485, ISO 14971, and related standards.

• Participate in risk analysis, hazard mitigation, and design verification activities.

• Support EMI/EMC testing, electrical safety evaluations, and environmental qualification testing.

• Implement design practices that enhance product reliability, serviceability, and manufacturability.
Verification, Validation & Documentation

• Develop hardware verification plans, test protocols, and validation strategies.

• Perform board bring-up, debugging, characterization, and performance validation.
