  • Design innovative electronics supporting motion control, fluidics, thermal management, and optical detection .
  • Lead prototype bring-up, troubleshooting, debugging, and hardware validation.
  • Partner closely with mechanical, software, systems, and scientific/assay teams to develop a fully integrated product.
  • Drive electrical requirements and ensure robust system-level performance.
  • Support hardware verification, validation, and product development from early prototypes through production.

  • 4+ years of industry experience in electrical engineering and product development.
  • Strong background in analog, digital, and mixed-signal circuit design .
  • Experience with embedded systems and microcontroller-based designs.
  • Strong PCB schematic capture and layout experience.
  • Experience with one or more of the following: precision thermal control, motor control, fluidic systems, optical detection, or instrumentation .
  • Experience developing hardware for medical devices or other regulated products , ideally within ISO 13485 / IEC 61010 environments.
  • Experience with hardware verification, validation, troubleshooting, and debugging throughout the product lifecycle.
  • Familiarity with PCB fabrication, assembly, manufacturing, and test.
Why This Opportunity?

This is a chance to join a mission-driven technology company at the forefront of medical diagnostics and have a direct impact on a product that could meaningfully improve patient care. You’ll have the opportunity to work on challenging, multidisciplinary engineering problems while helping take innovative technology from concept through commercialization.

If you’re an electrical engineer who enjoys ownership, hands-on development, complex technical challenges, and seeing your work become a real medical product , this is an opportunity worth exploring.
