Senior Electrical Engineer; Embedded Systems

Join us in pioneering breakthroughs in healthcare. For everyone. Everywhere. Sustainably.

Our inspiring and caring environment forms a global community that celebrates diversity and individuality. We encourage you to step beyond your comfort zone, offering resources and flexibility to foster your professional and personal growth, all while valuing your unique contributions.

Defines, architecturally leads, reviews, and supports the development and lifecycle of complex embedded electrical systems—including multi-board hardware, mixed-signal subsystems, and manufacturing test strategies for next-generation medical devices.

We are developing our next-generation flagship diagnostic analyzers — complex, multi-board embedded systems that directly impact care for patients globally. We’re looking for a Staff-level Electrical Engineer to serve as a technical authority and systems-minded electrical SME across embedded hardware development.

This is a high-impact individual contributor role (no formal people management) with strong influence over system architecture, technical decision-making, and the success of internal + external development execution. You will collaborate closely with a small internal engineering team and partner with external development firms, contract manufacturers, and cross-functional stakeholders.

Embedded electrical architecture & technical leadership

• Lead and/or co-lead definition of the electrical architecture for complex multi-board embedded systems (power domains, partitioning, isolation strategy, interfaces, grounding, mixed-signal considerations).
• Serve as the internal technical approver for electrical design decisions and reviews (schematics, layout constraints, interface definitions, power integrity, SI/EMI risk controls).
• Provide hands‑on mentorship and technical direction to other electrical and systems engineers.

Partner & supplier technical oversight

• Work in close partnership with an external development partner (shared ownership model) to challenge assumptions, drive design quality, and ensure alignment to product and regulatory needs.
• Represent engineering with PCBA manufacturers on design‑for‑assembly/test topics, yield issues, test strategy, and manufacturing escalations.
• Support technical evaluation of manufacturing test approaches (functional test, boundary scan/JTAG where applicable, fixture strategy, test coverage and diagnostics).

System integration & mixed criticality

• Drive design decisions spanning mixed‑domain and mixed‑criticality subsystems: high‑precision analog measurement, motion control, fluidics control (pumps/valves), sensors, and real‑time orchestration.
• Collaborate with firmware/software teams on embedded platform integration:
  Linux (Yocto) on Cortex‑A class SoCs/SoMs (i.MX family likely), plus MCU and FPGA (Intel/Altera Cyclone‑class) involvement.
• Define robust internal interfaces (SPI/I²C/UART/Ethernet/USB/CSI/LVDS/MIPI, etc.) and reliability/diagnostic strategies suitable for a regulated medical environment.

Sustaining support (occasional)

• Provide escalation support for on‑market products when issues exceed the capability of the typical sustainment/offshore team (manufacturing failures, field complaints, supplier issues, design changes/obsolescence).

• Bachelor’s degree (or higher) in Electrical Engineering or related field.
• Significant experience (typically 8+ years) delivering embedded hardware in complex products.
• Demonstrated system‑level ownership: electrical architecture, subsystem partitioning, interface definition, and integration across multiple boards.
• Strong design fundamentals across mixed-signal embedded systems (analog + digital + power).
• Exper…
