Staff Electrical Engineer - R&D

As a Staff Electrical Engineer, you will be responsible for a wide variety of engineering work in support of current production medical devices including design changes, process/quality improvements and compliance issues. You will support and conduct root cause analysis, verification and validation testing, manufacturing transfer activities, component obsolescence management for existing products.

What You Will Do:

Technical Responsibilities:

• Work closely with manufacturing and other cross functional partners to support day to day manufacturing including but not limited to line down issues, service parts, manufacturing transfers & supplier-initiated change requests (SICRs)
• Support Quality & Service teams for analysis of customer complaints related to product failures & provide solutions to resolve the same. May need to travel to customers, as needed, to better understand and solve ongoing field issues.
• Work on engineering change orders (ECOs) and own the design change from root cause analysis to implementation; this involves working with cross functional team members to understand the problem, propose solutions, prototype design, arrange parts/samples by working directly with suppliers, plan and conduct testing, arrange team collaboration meetings, present to Change approval board for design approval and implementation
• May need to own Non-Conformances (NC) and design Corrective and Preventive Action (CAPAs) plans & present the same to divisional and GQO quality board meetings on regular basis
• Through the design process, you may design circuits including but not limited to Schematic Capture, Layout and Failure Mode Analysis for PCBA’s, Cables and other electromechanical components.
• Analyze & test for electromagnetic compliance (EMI/EMC), reliability, safety, cost and design for manufacturing / assembly / test.
• Work with electrical tools like DMM, Oscilloscope & product specific test fixtures
• Translate user needs to design inputs/specifications and produce advanced component and sub-system level designs.

What You Will Need:

Basic Qualifications:

• Bachelor of Science degree or higher in Electrical Engineering or related field
• 4+ years of related design experience
• Experience with PCB Schematic & Layout process and tools (e.g. PSpice, LTspice, OrCAD, Mentor Graphics, Altium, etc.).
• Experience using electronic hardware lab tools for development of design (e.g. Oscilloscope, Electronic Loads, Function Generator, Spectrum Analyzer, Environmental Chambers).

Preferred Qualifications:

• Knowledge of wired interface protocols, including I2C, UART, RS-232, RS-485, CAN, SPI, LVDS, Ethernet, and DRAM interfaces ·
• Knowledge of wireless interface protocols, such as Bluetooth, BLE, RFID, and Wi-Fi, including standards, requirements, and testing protocols
• Experience working with suppliers on process improvements, test methods development e.g. ICT, FCTs
