Electrical Engineer
About the role
The Hardware Group is looking for an Electrical Engineer to contribute to the design and integration of the electrical systems that power our industrial CT scanners. You’ll be responsible for designing power and control electronics, building test infrastructure, and supporting embedded software across a complex hardware-software product. This is a hands-on, interdisciplinary role where your electrical designs will tightly integrate with firmware and mechanical systems. You'll work closely with a small, fast-moving team that values curiosity, rigor, and system-level thinking.
This is a hands-on, in-person role based in our Cambridge, MA office.
What you’ll do
- Contribute to the specification and design of electro-mechanical systems
- Perform circuit design, schematic capture, and PCB layout
- Bring up boards and see them through testing and system integration
- Develop test scripts and firmware for factory tools and prototypes
- Collaborate with engineers across disciplines to deliver integrated systems at a challenging price/performance target
- Support your designs from prototyping through to production at our own factory
About you
- Familiar with ECAD software such as Altium Designer, Cadence, Mentor, KiCad, etc.
- Have experience debugging board-level communication protocols (e.g., I2C, SPI, USB, etc.)
- Have at least basic familiarity with MCU firmware development
- Comfortable using Python, C, Linux, and basic modern data-science tools
Work with your manager to direct your focus and deliver high-quality work that adds value to the team's goals.
Bonus points for:
- Experience working with X-ray systems or other radiation-emitting equipment
- Understanding of thermal management for high-power PCBs and system enclosures
- Familiarity with product safety standards (e.g., UL, IEC)
- A portfolio of electronics projects you can share
