Responsibilities:
- Demonstrated project and team leadership; mentor less experienced engineers.
- Design circuits incorporating RF circuitry, analog controls, transducers, and sensors for dermatology products using RF, lasers, and ultrasonic energy.
- Perform electronics schematic capture and supervise CAD layout resources.
- Develop and construct system and peripheral electronic board prototypes.
- Hands-on laboratory debug and integration to test and verify hardware designs.
- Hold and participate in technical design reviews.
- Incorporate DFM and EMC principles for new and existing medical device designs.
- Work with change processes and configuration management tools.
- Assure equipment compliance to IEC medical device standards (e.g., 60601-1, 60601-1-2).
- Participate in systems-level failure mode, safety, and hazard analysis.
- Support Manufacturing and Service with reliability and failure analysis investigations and solutions.
- Learn and support legacy products while developing new ones.
Qualifications:
- BS (advanced degree preferred) in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience.
- Minimum 10 years in analog and digital systems design for medical devices, including clinical application of RF energy.
- Substantial experience with system-level electrical design and integration; design for EMC, signal integrity, power supply systems, and RF immunity.
- Experience working in multidisciplinary environments (software, optical, RF, mechanical, project management).
- Hands-on development experience: circuit development, test and analysis for RF/laser/ultrasound products; therapeutic/clinical thermal heating applications; understanding of standards and human-body energy safety.
- Experience with mixed-signal circuit board development using embedded microprocessors and FPGAs (plus).
- Demonstrated sound regulatory approaches for medical device technical solutions.
- Working knowledge of EDA CAD tools and design for manufacturability and test.
- Skilled in problem definition, data collection, and analysis; generate supported conclusions from large datasets.
- Design best practices including FDA risk management and design for EMC, safety, and manufacturability.
- Excellent documentation skills for regulated products/applications (design traceability, specifications, requirements, V&V plans).
- Prefer experience with regulatory standards/regulated environments (IEC 60601-x, ISO, MIL-STD, FAA); foreign regulator experience is a plus.
Desired technical skills:
- Understanding analog power output, analysis, test methodologies, transducers, and modeling.
- Background in clinical application of laser, RF, and ultrasound (plus).
- Experience designing with RF amplifiers, impedance matching networks, transformers, embedded processors, power electronics, A/Ds, DACs, op-amps, FETs, power supplies; from prototype to full product release; creative test and verification demonstrating requirements fulfillment (e.g., Microsoft Office, SPICE, Altium).
- Data analysis and software for data collection using Matlab, Python, or another programming language (plus).
Benefits:
- Medical (includes prescription drug), dental, vision, flexible spending accounts, 401(k) with matching company contribution, discretionary time off, paid sick time, stock purchase plan, tuition reimbursement, parental leave, short-term and long-term disability, life insurance, accidental death & dismemberment insurance, paid holidays, employee referral bonuses, and employee discounts.
