Job summary

Symmetrio is seeking a Senior Electrical Engineer for an on-site role in Melbourne, Australia. The ideal candidate will bring hands-on electrical design expertise with strong FPGA/digital design experience and robust analog electronics skills to develop medical measurement and control systems.

Responsibilities include FPGA design verification, noise-optimized signal conditioning, and cross-functional collaboration to drive concepts through production.

Qualifications

• 8–10+ years in electrical design and analysis with hands-on circuit design experience.
• BS or MS in Electrical Engineering or equivalent discipline.
• Hands-on FPGA/digital design experience.
• Strong analog electronics skills and experience designing low-noise, low-leakage precision measurement circuits in a regulated industry.
• Experience with design controls and regulatory compliance (IEC 60601).

Responsibilities

• Design and develop microcontroller and FPGA architectures for medical measurement and control systems.
• Develop and verify FPGA designs using Verilog/VHDL for real-time signal processing and timing-critical applications.
• Design and troubleshoot low-noise, low-leakage analog signal conditioning circuits, including femtoampere-range measurement systems.
• Define system requirements, functional specifications, and verification/acceptance criteria; participate in design reviews and design control activities.
• Own electrical design documentation, including schematics, PCB layout specifications, design specifications, and technical procedures.
• Analyze and optimize noise, leakage, signal integrity, and overall circuit performance.
• Support verification, validation, manufacturing troubleshooting, and design-for-manufacturability (DFM) activities.
• Collaborate with firmware, mechanical, manufacturing, and other engineering teams to bring designs from concept through production.
• Mentor junior engineers and serve as a technical SME on complex electrical design and troubleshooting challenges.
• Ensure designs meet applicable medical-device regulatory and quality requirements, including IEC 60601, design controls, and traceability.
