Job description

As a global medtech company, we are driven by our Vision of changing the trajectory of lives for a new day and our Mission to create ingenious solutions that ignite patient turnarounds. Our relentless commitment to patients and strong legacy of innovation in healthcare are the foundation of our future. If you're looking for a new chance, a new beginning, a new trajectory, LivaNova is where your talent can truly thrive. Join our talented team members worldwide to become a pioneer of tomorrow- because at LivaNova, we don't just treat conditions - we aspire to alter the course of lives.

We are looking for an Electrical Engineer who has an approach that considers design specifications and business needs to deliver test systems in various phases of the project from characterization to production and post-production. This is a technical, hands-on opportunity working with a robust, cross-functional group of electrical, RF and firmware engineers.

Job Responsibilities

• Determining feasibility of a design concept through part selection, prototyping and initial design fabrication of the PCBA, board bring up (debug as necessary) and characterization to determine the suitability of the concept.

• Development of automated test systems for Continuous tests, Characterization, Design verification, and Production of various Neuromodulation products.

• Execute tests and analyze data using statistical methods and influence product designs choices based on your findings.

• Ability to write technical specifications and requirements and strong written and oral communication skills to accurately convey issues and information.

• Ability to automate characterization, design verification and production level tests in C#, and other automation software tools

• Risk assessment of the proposed design and mitigation of residual risk via design or process controls. Ability to perform dFMEA analysis independently on design modules and systems.

• Perform design reviews periodically to keep the stakeholders informed and seek critical feedback to improve on the design.

• Collaborate with cross-functional teams to plan and execute software development projects, including defining project scope, requirements, timelines, and budgets.

• Engage with stakeholders to identify project goals and objectives and ensure alignment with the company’s strategic objectives.

• Design the next-generation architecture of the automation systems with a focus on maximizing efficiency through elements like reusable toolsets/assets.

• Automate the validation of your software through techniques including scheduled builds, static test, unit/module/integration test libraries, and UI test automation and simulators that mimic hardware and product behavior.

• Determine the feasibility of a design concept through part selection, prototyping, and initial design fabrication of the PCBA, board bring-up (debug as necessary), and characterization to determine the suitability of the concept.

• Define project milestones and deliverables, track progress against them, and identify and manage project risks. Develop contingency plans to mitigate risks and execute project timelines per business needs.

• Communicate project status and progress to stakeholders and provide regular updates on project milestones and deliverables by performing periodic design reviews.

• Participate in project retrospectives to identify areas for improvement and implement changes to improve project outcomes.

• Mentor and coach incoming interns, providing guidance and support to help them achieve their career goals.

• Stay up-to-date with emerging trends and technologies and leverage them to improve project outcomes.

• Manage Kanban board, assign priorities to items and bugs, and utilize agile methodologies to optimize workflow and continuously improve processes.

• Facilitate daily stand-up meetings and collaborate with cross-functional teams to ensure the timely delivery of high-quality software products.

Minimum Qualifications

• BS in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering or similar degree
