Senior Engineer, Systems - Embedded Electronics Job ID: 163887 Job Description: The Senior Systems Engineer plays a critical role in understanding system level requirements, architecting, analyzing through suitable techniques, specifying, conducting feasibility studies, and staying involved in the project through the course of integration. This involves participating in tasks such as functional specification, testing, formal verification, failure analysis, and sustaining engineering. The position requires expertise, hands‑on skills, and experience in areas such as digital logic, analog circuits, power subsystems, and hardware debugging with real‑time embedded code. Systems engineering is a central role that spans the lifecycle of product development from requirements gathering to manufacturing transfer and post‑market surveillance. Responsibilities Working with Marketing, Project Management and other R&D groups to guide requirements and generate product specifications. Obtain a system level view to drive tradeoff analysis during product development while considering features, schedules, cost, complexity, evaluating how radical or incremental the change is, risk and usability. Conduct feasibility work on product / system components and features in area of technical expertise. Study and be able to propose suitable components, algorithms and solutions at the least in the area of expertise. Also be able model/implement the proposals using suitable techniques and tools. Work with Electrical (RF, Board & IC), Firmware, Software and Mechanical teams during the product development and system integration phase. Work with R&T and other R&D groups to define architectures for future products and systems with a solid understanding of market needs. Be willing and capable of developing a broad level of understanding of our products, their higher level architecture (hardware and software) and also specialize in certain technical segments. Be capable of investigating field product issues, or issues during product development, be able to conduct necessary experiments with suitable techniques to get to the root cause of the issues at the shortest possible time. Be willing and forthcoming in clearly documenting the work undertaken not only with a goal to document but also with a goal in mind to educate the newcomers and rest of the organization. Always be willing and effectively share with others in the organization knowledge that has been gained when asked, or as needed to improve the overall skills of the organization. Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Electrical, Electronics, or Biomedical Engineering required; Master’s degree or PhD preferred.
