Job Description
We are seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer to join our Instrumentation NPI and Sustaining Engineering team , supporting the design, transition to manufacturing, and lifecycle management of our current and next-generation platforms.
As a
Senior Electrical Engineer , you will lead and contribute to the development, improvement, and support of electrical systems across our product lines. Your primary focus will be on
New Product Introduction (NPI)-bridging the gap between R&D and manufacturing-and on
sustaining engineering to ensure high product quality, manufacturability, and reliability throughout the product lifecycle. You will work in close collaboration with cross-functional teams to deliver robust, scalable, and compliant instrument solutions.
What you will be doing: - Lead and execute electrical design and development efforts for NPI and sustaining engineering projects across complex instrumentation platforms.
- Drive the transition of products from development to manufacturing , ensuring design robustness, manufacturability (DFM), testability (DFT), and scalability.
- Lead root cause analysis , corrective actions, and continuous improvements for electrical issues arising in production or in-field systems.
- Own and develop system and subsystem electrical architectures to meet performance, cost, and regulatory requirements.
- Collaborate with mechanical, firmware, software, system, microfluidics, and quality teams to solve complex, cross-disciplinary engineering challenges.
- Conduct board-level analog/digital circuit design, schematic capture, and PCB layout reviews using CAD tools (Altium preferred).
- Apply strong knowledge of signal integrity, grounding, power management, and EMI/ESD mitigation .
- Lead and support design verification and validation , compliance testing (FCC, CE, UL, CSA), and reliability testing.
- Interact with external partners and contract manufacturers to align on electrical design, test strategies, and manufacturing processes.
- Participate in and drive design reviews, risk assessments (FMEA), and design documentation per design control processes.
Minimum Requirements: - Bachelor's or Master's degree in Electrical Engineering or related field.
- 8+ years of hands-on experience in electrical engineering, including board-level design for complex electro-mechanical systems.
- Proven track record of supporting both new product development and sustaining engineering in a regulated environment (medical, biotech, or life sciences preferred).
- Proficiency with embedded systems , including microprocessors, memory interfaces, USB, Ethernet, I2C, SPI, CAN, etc.
- Strong experience with PCB bring-up, debugging, and rework , including use of lab equipment (oscilloscopes, logic analyzers, power analyzers, etc.).
- Experience conducting DFM, DFA, and DFT reviews and working with contract manufacturers and suppliers.
- Familiarity with regulatory standards and certifications: FCC, UL, CE, ISO, and safety/reliability requirements.
Preferred Qualifications: - Experience in NPI environments , including pilot builds, production ramp, and ECO processes.
- Strong understanding of embedded firmware/hardware interaction ; coding experience is a plus.
- Experience with a wide range of sensors (optical, thermal, pressure, flow, position).
- Deep understanding of compliance engineering , including EMC, ESD, safety, and environmental testing.
- Proficiency in Altium Designer or equivalent ECAD tools.
- Experience supporting cross-functional design transfer processes to operations and manufacturing teams.
- Excellent verbal and written communication skills; ability to clearly convey technical information to diverse audiences.
