About the Role
Join Flosonics Medical as a Senior Electrical Engineer to design, develop, and optimize the next generation of our innovative FloPatch platform, a wireless Doppler ultrasound system for critical care patients. You will lead electrical design initiatives from concept through validation, collaborating with cross-functional teams to bring new product enhancements to life and ensure our medical technology is reliable and manufacturable.
Responsibilities
- Lead the electrical architecture of a wireless, battery-operated wearable ultrasound device, including high-sensitivity analog transceiver and low-power microcontroller integration with standard protocols (I2C, SPI, BLE, UART, etc.).
- Lead design and review of schematic capture and PCB layout in Altium Designer, focusing on design for manufacturability (DFM) for production at scale and BOM management.
- Characterize the ultrasound analog front-end and end-to-end performance, including noise floor, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and electrical validation.
- Integrate electronics with mechanical enclosures and ultrasound transducers.
- Execute comprehensive bench-level electrical validation using high-speed oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and network analyzers to verify impedance matching and signal integrity at the transducer interface.
- Optimize the overall power budget by managing the interaction between the MCU, peripheral sensors, and PMIC/LiPo battery system.
- Drive hardware prototyping, board bring-up, and root-cause analysis to resolve electrical and system-level issues.
- Collaborate with the firmware team on driver validation, debugging, and integration.
- Lead design transfer to manufacturing and iterate on specifications based on feedback from the production team and root-cause analysis.
- Design test jigs for R&D and automated production test systems.
- Support V&V under ISO 13485 by developing and executing hardware test plans, procedures, and documentation for IEC 60601 compliance and regulatory validation.
Requirements
- Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent.
- 10+ years of experience in electronics design, hardware integration, testing, documentation, and verification & validation (V&V).
- Strong experience in analog circuit design and simulation, component characterization, ultrasound/RF transducer integration, prototyping, and troubleshooting.
- Proven ability to apply design for manufacturability (DFM) and design for test (DFT) methodologies.
- Experience developing medical devices under design controls and ISO 13485.
- Knowledge of international standards such as IEC 60601-1.
- Proficiency in Altium Designer for schematic capture, PCB layout, and design output preparation.
- Hands-on expertise setting up and using oscilloscopes, vector network analyzers, and spectrum analyzers.
- Experience integrating sensors, analog-to-digital converters, microcontrollers and wireless systems-on-chip in low-power, battery-operated devices.
- Experience with electrical component selection, sourcing, and working with suppliers and contract manufacturers.
- Ability to work autonomously within a diverse team and mentor junior engineers.
