Director, Systems Engineering (Hybrid)

Engineering Leadership

• Manage, mentor, and actively grow the Electrical, Systems, and embedded software engineering teams.
• Own the system-level architecture of core and next-gen products. Drive requirements generation, flow-down, and traceability across hardware and software disciplines. Ensure the system is designed for reliability, scalability, and manufacturability.
• Guide the software development strategy of next-gen products. Oversee both the embedded stack and the OS-SW teams, driving OS-level configurations, kernel optimizations, and managing external contractors for board support packages (BSPs).
• Lead the EE team through the full hardware lifecycle, from component selection and schematic capture to PCB layout, board bring-up, and design for manufacturability (DFM).
• Act as the technical bridge between Mechanical Engineering, Software, Data Science, core FW teams, Clinical, Quality/Regulatory, and Product Management to deliver a cohesive medical device.
