Job description

DxD Hub

DxD Hub is an end‑to‑end productisation partner, committed to transforming the MedTech landscape in Singapore through innovative solutions sourced from both local and regional partners. Our strengths are in cross‑disciplinary product development particularly in molecular diagnostics, protein immune assays, and digital diagnostic technologies.

Job Description

We are seeking a Senior Engineer with system integration expertise and design oversight to join our team. As a vital member, you will be involved in the design, development, and testing of medical devices, ensuring compliance with regulatory standards and industry best practices.

Your role will involve collaborating with cross‑functional teams to create innovative solutions encompassing hardware, software and chemistry by conducting verification and validation activities, and providing technical support throughout the product lifecycle.

The ideal candidate will have a solid understanding of system integration principles, best practices in verification and validation testing, and knowledge of medical device regulations (such as ISO 13485).

Beyond technical integration, you will co‑own project execution with the Project Manager, taking responsibility for technical planning, milestone tracking, and cross‑team coordination — ensuring that engineering progress aligns with project timelines and deliverables.

Roles And Responsibilities

• Develop high‑level system architectures that meet user requirements while considering design feasibility.
• Ensure that all system components are compatible and can be integrated seamlessly.
• Design and implement integration strategies and validate the functions as intended while adhering to design principles.
• Lead collaborative teams for the design, implementation, and validation and perform hands‑on testing independently if required to complete engineering or verification studies.
• Lead creation of innovative solutions that align with both technical specifications and user needs for medical products.
• Coordinate between design, engineering, assay, project manager, and other disciplines to ensure cohesive product development.
• Author or oversee the writing of protocols and reports.
• Foster collaboration among team members to address challenges from both a technical and design perspective.
• Create and maintain technical documentation, including design specifications, test protocols, and reports, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements such as ISO 13485.
• Co‑manage project execution with the Project Manager: own the technical work‑plan, track engineering milestones, flag risks early, and coordinate task allocation across engineering disciplines.

Key Requirements

• Experience or equivalent in system integration and innovation.
• Bachelor's degree in Engineering, Design or equivalent engineering or science background.
• Comfort in navigating uncertain situations without clear guidelines.
• Adaptability to changing work conditions and project requirements.
• 5‑10 years working in cross‑functional product development roles and completed one full product development cycle.
• Track record in working effectively with diverse teams, including engineering, design, and marketing.
• Strong interpersonal skills to facilitate communication between technical and non‑technical stakeholders and ability to summarize and communicate complex problems in simple terms.
• Strong analytical skills to troubleshoot integration issues while considering design implications.
• Ability to break down complex systems into simple steps and identify interfaces between modules and generate system diagrams, workflows and reports.
• Curiosity and proactive approach to gather information necessary for decision‑making.
• Knowledge of statistical tools for data analysis such as Python/Matlab/Origin/LabVIEW is highly encouraged.
• Experience with design software. Experience with CFD simulation software such as ANSYS is advantageous.
