Key Responsibilities

n

n

* Own the system architecture and systems engineering of the product.

n

* Translate product, clinical and safety needs into clear system/subsystem requirements and interfaces.

n

* Lead integration across firmware, electronics, sensors, actuators, HMI, communications, fluidics and mechanical systems.

n

* Provide hands-on technical leadership for embedded firmware architecture and C/C++ development.

n

* Define system states, control sequences, alarms, interlocks, fault handling and safe-state behaviour.

n

* Lead system-level troubleshooting, root-cause analysis and resolution of complex HW/FW/mechanical integration issues.

n

* Drive requirements → design → integration → verification & validation → release.

n

* Work with QA/RA on risk management, design controls, traceability and regulatory compliance.

n

* Establish robust practices for code reviews, testing, version control, configuration management and technical documentation.

n

* Mentor and technically guide firmware, electronics, biomedical and mechanical engineers.

Strongly Preferred

n

n

Experience with ISO 13485, ISO 14971, IEC 62304, IEC 60601 and IEC 62366-1, particularly taking a medical device through formal V&V;, certification or commercial release.

n

n

Experience with fluid-control systems, pumps/valves, pressure/flow/conductivity sensors, closed-loop control, dialysis, medical fluid systems or water purification would be a significant advantage.

Who We Are Looking For

n

n

We are looking for a technical owner—not just a project manager. Someone capable of defining architecture at the system level while remaining comfortable reviewing code, debugging hardware, analysing control behaviour and solving difficult integration problems.
