Job description

  • Lead system-level design, development, and integration of medical device products across hardware, software, mechanical, and electrical domains.
  • Design and review hardware architectures, including sensors, actuators, controllers, and embedded subsystems.
  • Develop and validate control systems for precise XYZ multi axis mechanical motion, motion profiling, and closed-loop feedback systems.
  • Collaborate with mechanical engineers to define and validate kinematic designs, tolerances, and movement accuracy for complex electromechanical systems.
  • Work closely with software teams on embedded and application-level software integration, ensuring seamless interaction with hardware and control systems.
  • Drive system requirements definition, allocation, traceability, and verification throughout the product lifecycle.
  • Participate in risk management activities (FMEA, fault analysis) and ensure compliance with medical device standards and regulatory requirements.
  • Support prototyping, system integration, debugging, verification, and validation testing at component and system levels.
  • Interface with manufacturing, quality, and regulatory teams to support design transfer and product commercialization.
  • Provide on-site technical support, issue resolution, and continuous improvement for deployed systems.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s or master’s degree in systems Engineering or Electrical Engineering
  • Proven experience as a Systems Engineer in medical device development, including full product lifecycle involvement.
  • Knowledge of Systems design, including analog/digital electronics, sensors, motors, actuators, and embedded platforms.
  • Hands-on experience with control systems design, modeling, tuning (PID and advanced control), and real-time implementation.
  • Demonstrated expertise in XYZ mechanical motion systems, precision positioning, robotics, or multi-axis motion control.
  • Experience integrating software, mechanical, and electrical subsystems into cohesive, reliable products.
  • Familiarity with medical device regulations and standards (e.g., FDA, IEC 60601, ISO 13485, ISO 14971).
  • bility to read and interpret mechanical drawings, electrical schematics, and system block diagrams.
  • Strong debugging, problem-solving, and root-cause analysis skills in complex electromechanical systems.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to work effectively on cross-functional teams.
  • Willingness and ability to work onsite in the USA.

Good to Have:

  • Experience with MATLAB/Simulink for system modeling, control design, and simulation.
  • Hands on experience using LabVIEW for test automation, system validation, and data acquisition.
  • Practical experience with motion controllers (commercial or custom) used in precision positioning systems.
