Senior Hardware Engineer — New Product Development
Medasense Biometrics is developing a new medical device and is looking for an experienced Senior Hardware Engineer to lead its hardware design, hands-on, from concept through verification and transfer to production. Beyond circuit and board design, the role owns the system-level responsibilities that make the hardware credible: design verification, risk management, and the interfaces toward the mechanical, sensing, and software/firmware teams.
Responsibilities
-
Own analog and digital hardware design: schematic, board-level architecture, component selection, power, and signal integrity — through bring-up, debug, and design iteration.
-
Define and execute design verification: test strategy, protocols, and acceptance criteria at both subsystem and system level.
-
Lead hardware-related risk management (ISO 14971) — hazard analysis grounded in real failure modes — and contribute to the design history file under ISO 13485.
-
Define electrical, sensing, power, and connectivity interfaces, and own the requirements toward software/firmware and mechanical teams.
-
Drive cross-domain trade-offs (power, performance, cost, safety, manufacturability) and resolve integration issues across disciplines.
-
Support compliance to IEC 60601-1 (and collaterals); coordinate with regulatory/QA and external test labs.
-
Support manufacturing and field teams: design transfer, root-cause analysis, and design changes.
Requirements
-
B.Sc./M.Sc. in Electrical/Electronics Engineering.
-
7+ years of hands-on hardware design for complex products, including several years in medical devices.
-
Demonstrated ownership through the full lifecycle: design, bring-up, verification, and transfer to production — not design alone.
-
Direct experience writing and executing V&V protocols and performing system-level (not only board-level) risk analysis.
-
Strong analog and mixed-signal foundation; able to reason across mechanical and sensing domains.
-
Comfortable owning the system seams, not only their own subsystem.
Advantage
-
Patient monitoring, sensors, or physiological signal acquisition (PPG/biopotential/GSR or similar).
-
Familiarity with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-2, ISO 14971, IEC 62366, and FDA design controls.
-
Concept-to-market and design-transfer experience.
-
Connectivity/interface depth (USB, UART, CAN, isolation, power systems).
