Job description

DeepSight Technology Inc. is an early-stage, pre-commercial medical device company with a vision for Physical AI -scaling advanced multimodal sensing technologies so clinicians can see more, sense more, and guide procedures with greater precision and confidence. Our vision starts with developing a breakthrough platform combining acousto-optic sensing technology and ultrasound imaging.

DeepSight is seeking dedicated, talented team members as we scale. We offer a collaborative, team-oriented environment along with competitive compensation and generous benefits

DeepSight Technology is seeking a Senior Systems Engineer with a strong focus on Test Development and System Integration to support the development of our next-generation medical imaging platforms. This role is critical to ensuring that system-level requirements, risk controls, and verification strategies are effectively translated into robust, traceable, and regulatory-compliant test solutions.

In this role, you will be responsible for test measurement systems design and development spanning the full hierarchy of the product hardware. Your focus will include system engineering principles to ensure successful product V&V, which includes test system requirement generation, verification planning, test architecture development, and integration efforts, working across hardware, software, clinical, quality, and regulatory teams. You will play a key role in driving high-quality design outcomes by using risk-based testing and system engineering best practices.
