About the role

The Senior Hardware Engineer is responsible for electronic hardware design and engineering, including designing, developing, modifying and evaluating electronic circuits, assemblies and subsystems for medical devices and other hardware systems. The role covers new product development and technical improvement of existing products, and supports both R&D and manufacturing activities.

Key responsibilities

• Design robust, reliable and manufacturable electronic solutions, performing circuit analysis, hardware debugging, verification testing, root cause investigations and evaluation of design alternatives.
• Support products through their lifecycle: manufacturing support, production issue resolution, component obsolescence management, design improvements and engineering change implementation.
• Take part in Engineering Change Request (ECR) and Engineering Change Order (ECO) activities, including impact assessments, technical documentation, verification planning and implementation of design changes.
• Solve moderately complex technical problems across product development, manufacturing, quality and supplier interactions, using a practical, data-driven approach.
• Act as a technical resource for colleagues with less experience, explain difficult or sensitive information and work across functions to build consensus.
• May lead small projects with moderate risk and resource requirements.

Required profile

• Engineering/technology experience with electronic hardware knowledge at a Master's degree level, or equivalent relevant experience.
• Strong background in electronic hardware development, with demonstrated experience in power electronics.
• Experience supporting manufacturing activities, including root cause analysis, corrective actions and hardware improvements.
• Desired: strong experience in power electronics, power supplies, power management, battery-powered products, and familiarity with ECR/ECO processes, design transfer, production launch and lifecycle management.

Required skills

• Power electronics, analog and digital electronics, and integration of complete electronic systems.
• Working knowledge of microcontrollers and embedded hardware.
• Laboratory testing, troubleshooting, debugging and verification of electronic hardware.
• Strong oral and written communication, interpersonal and leadership skills, and project management and cross-functional collaboration skills.
