Principal Electrical Design Engineer

Position Summary

The Principal Electrical Design Engineer is a subject matter expert within the product development team bringing deep technical expertise in mixed-signal electrical design. This role drives innovation by applying current best practices and emerging technologies to develop cutting-edge solutions and differentiated intellectual property. This is a high-impact hands-on technical leadership role at the core of our product innovation.

You will help define the next generation of our medical devices while strengthening the technical foundation needed to support a growing product portfolio. You will play a critical role in bridging early-stage innovation with scalable reliable product development directly influencing system architecture product performance and engineering processes as the organization grows.

You thrive in a dynamic fast-paced environment balancing multiple priorities while independently driving complex projects from concept through production. You play a key role in defining system and hardware requirements balancing speed with the rigor required for regulated medical devices.

Job Responsibilities

Drive key architectural decisions that impact current and future product platforms

Lead mixed-signal electrical design efforts across the full product lifecycle from concept and development through launch and sustaining support

Translate user needs clinical insights and product requirements into robust system-level design solutions

Apply engineering analysis (analytical simulation and empirical testing) to ensure designs meet functional and reliability requirements

Define and implement system architecture and hardware design best practices

Evaluate and integrate new technologies (ICs electromechanical systems power circuits) with consideration for scalability manufacturability and supply chain constraints

Architect and develop automated test systems to support product validation manufacturing and continuous improvement

Lead products through regulatory compliance and testing (e.g. EMC electrical safety) including standards such as FCC Part 15 and IEC 60601-1

Develop and maintain design control documentation (user needs design inputs verification/validation DHF artifacts)

Mentor engineers and elevate technical standards across the team

Collaborate cross-functionally (mechanical firmware software quality and manufacturing) to translate product vision into robust manufacturable solutions

Other duties as assigned

Required Qualifications

Bachelors degree in electrical engineering or related field with 7 years of experience designing mixed-signal circuits in a regulated environment

Proven expertise in low-noise signal acquisition and signal conditioning circuit design

Demonstrated technical leadership including experience guiding and mentoring engineers through the product development lifecycle

Strong hands-on experience with rapid prototyping including breadboarding simulation PCB design/layout and proof-of-concept validation

Ability to translate product requirements into system architecture and detailed implementation

Working knowledge of applicable standards and regulations (e.g. IEC 60601-1 family UL FCC Part 15)

Demonstrated ability to collaborate effectively in a fast-paced cross-functional environment while managing multiple competing tasks and demands

Demonstrated initiative accountability and ability to overcome technical challenges

Preferred Qualifications

Masters degree in electrical engineering or related field with 5 years of domain experience

Experience designing medical devices and supporting regulatory testing and certification

Expertise in battery technologies (e.g. Li-Ion Polymer) and power management design

Experience with electromechanical and haptic systems (motors solenoids drive circuitry)

Experience with hardware communication interfaces (USB RS-232 SPI I²C etc.)

Familiarity with embedded software development (Python C C Java Kotlin)

Experience with industry tools such as Altium LTSpice OrCAD Eagle and prototyping platforms (Raspberry Pi Arduino)
