Electrical Engineer, Implant Embedded Systems

Job Responsibilities

• Utilize electrical engineering fundamentals and best system design practices to deliver high-performant, reliable, and manufacturable extremely size-constraint systems
• Contribute to all phases of system and board design, from system definition to part selection, schematic design, layout, bring up, and design verification
• Help conduct R&D investigations and experiments to demonstrate feasibility of new technology for the implant and the charger
• Work cross functionally to ensure successful systems integration
• Contribute to system improvements that decrease latency and increase battery life, reliability, and safety
• Design and deploy systems for implant-charger hardware in the loop testing, and manufacturing line quality control

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Electrical Engineering or equivalent experience
• Strong electrical engineering and physics fundamentals, with demonstrated ability to apply them under real-world constraints (noise, power, size, non-ideal interfaces)
• Proven ability to independently design, bring up, debug, and verify complex PCBAs operating under tight power and size constraints, including mixed-signal circuits, sensitive sensor interfaces, and embedded compute
• Experience debugging systems where issues span multiple domains (analog, digital, RF, power) and root causes are not immediately obvious
• Deep familiarity with lab instrumentation (oscilloscopes, power supplies, spectrum analyzers, VNAs) and the ability to extract meaningful insight from imperfect measurements

Preferred Qualifications

• Experience shipping highly integrated, size- and power-constrained devices (e.g., wearables, implantables, compact wireless systems)
• Experience with wireless systems and RF design tradeoffs (BLE, Wi-Fi, antenna design, coexistence)
• Experience supporting hardware through manufacturing at scale, including yield, test, and failure analysis
• Experience in safety-critical or regulated environments, where reliability and risk must be explicitly managed
• Familiarity with mechanical integration constraints (CAD tools, packaging, stack-ups)
• Experience with electromagnetic simulation and antenna validation (FEM/FDTD or equivalent)

Expected Compensation

The anticipated base salary for this position is expected to be within the following range. Your actual base pay will be determined by your job-related skills, experience, and relevant education or training.
