Senior Systems Integration Engineer - Life-Science Devices

LIFE TECHNOLOGIES HOLDINGS PTE. LTD.; Singapore; On-site; SGD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

Thermo Fisher Scientific is seeking a highly motivated Senior Engineer, Systems Design to join our engineering team as a Systems Integrator. The role focuses on system-level integration across mechanical, electrical, optical, firmware and software domains.

You will lead hands-on testing, evaluate interfaces, perform root-cause investigations and collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver reliable instrument platforms such as PCR instruments, cell therapy systems and imaging modules.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree or higher in Mechanical, Electrical, Electronics, Biomedical, Bioengineering, or related field.
• Typically 5+ years of experience in systems engineering, integration engineering, design engineering, testing, or multidisciplinary product development.
• Hands-on engineering and test experience with physical products, prototypes, laboratory equipment, instruments or complex electromechanical systems.
• Strong systems thinking with ability to understand interactions across disciplines.
• Experience in systems integration is preferred; if not, strong test experience and willingness to learn.
• Strong fundamentals in experimental design, test-method development, data collection and analysis, and troubleshooting.
• Demonstrated analytical and problem-solving ability, including root-cause analysis and risk assessment.
• Knowledge of product development and systems engineering practices (requirements, interfaces, traceability, design controls, verification).
• Ability to communicate technical findings clearly and work with multidisciplinary teams.

Responsibilities

• Lead and execute system integration activities for assigned projects, bringing together multidisciplinary subsystems into controlled and reproducible system configurations.
• Perform hands-on engineering testing on instruments, prototypes and subsystems to support feasibility studies, proof-of-concept work, integration checkout, troubleshooting and sustaining investigations.
• Evaluate subsystem interfaces and interactions across areas such as mechanical, electrical, optical, fluidic, thermal, firmware and software domains, depending on the assigned product.
• Exercise integrated system workflows and identify interface, timing, performance, configuration and cross-subsystem issues that may not be apparent during standalone subsystem testing.
• Lead structured troubleshooting and root-cause investigations by reproducing, isolating and characterizing issues and coordinating resolution with appropriate technical owners.
• Develop or contribute to engineering test approaches, test methods, acceptance criteria and integration coverage based on technical risks and system behavior.
• Analyze experimental and test data using appropriate engineering, statistical and data-analysis techniques; translate results into clear conclusions and technical recommendations.
• Support feasibility studies and proof-of-concept experiments to evaluate new technologies, design concepts, critical parameters and interface assumptions.
• Identify system-level and integration risks and support risk-retirement activities, including integration-impact assessments for sustaining design changes where applicable.
• Maintain appropriate records of system configuration, test results, open issues, known limitations and residual risks, and support readiness handoff to downstream verification and validation activities.
• Collaborate across Systems Engineering, technical leads, subsystem designers, Hardware/Software/Embedded Test, V&V, Quality, Regulatory, Manufacturing and Service teams.
