Sr. Principal Electrical Engineer - 15 Years

Hiring Sr. Principal Electrical Engineer

Location Round Lake, IL

Hybrid(3 days)

Important:
Infusion pump or any medical device experience would be great, but any regulated industry experience would be fine

Experience with analog and digital circuit design & testing (digital more preferred)

Programming in C

CAD tool - Altium (must)

Defines design requirements and hardware specifications based on customer or user requirements.
- Contributes to the development and documentation of electronic system architectures.
- Creates designs of analog and digital electronic circuit schematics for microcontroller-based systems, meeting performance objectives.
- Analyze circuits using calculation and simulation methods to assess performance limits, effects of environmental and load stresses, and timing interfaces to ensure consistent performance in safety critical applications.
- Ensures successful integration of electrical design with mechanical and software elements of the system.
- Completes deliverables related to design of systems and sub-systems of the overall electrical architecture.
- Develops, modifies, and approves electrical design documentation, specifications, and drawings.
- Supervises/coordinates engineers and/or technicians on assigned to execute the project.
- Defines appropriate test methods to verify designs meet their performance requirements.
- Mentor the layout of circuit assemblies to meet emissions and immunity performance requirements and design for manufacturability guidelines.
- Good experience in designing products for meeting EMI/EMC/ESD compliance requirements.
- Transitions products to manufacturing and ensures robust products and manufacturing processes.
- Develops and maintains an effective and corroborative working relationship with internal and external development partners.
- Resolves competing constraints between interrelated functions (engineering, purchasing, manufacturing, regulatory, marketing, etc.) required to deliver the product to market.
- Implements data acquisition and analysis techniques to characterize design performance
- Executes protocols and testing required to validate the safety and effectiveness of the design(s).
- Leads the troubleshooting and problem-solving efforts related to electrical aspects of devices and associated systems.
- Creates and communicates design/test plans, tasks, deliverables, and status. Manages time and resources to meet committed schedule milestones.

Qualifications

- Graduate or Postgraduate in Electrical or Electronics or related Engineering and 15+ years of experience. Prior experience in infusion pump domain is a plus.
